Excellent hotel, location / food (breakfast was all we had) / room view etc.
The only down side was the dust around air vents (everywhere) / on the walls (breakfast room particularly)
What an amazing experience. Perfection is the best word to describe this hotel. The quality of the rooms, service, food, location, ambiance—all surpassed my expectations. Highly recommend if you’re planning to visit Kyoto.
We had an incredible stay! The breakfast was amazing, the service was excellent, and our room was beautiful, comfortable, and very clean. The staff made the entire experience feel welcoming and luxurious. This was my first trip to Asia, and staying here made the experience even more special. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it, especially if you’re looking for a luxury experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the lobby itself, the light installation, even at the stairs was so pretty the staff were all very friendly and polite and very helpful as well. Property is gorgeous the room is clean and well maintained. The location is amazing just at the train station. Only downside I would say about this is I wish this hotel had a pool. Very grateful for the staff that they helped to prepare baby ingredients to prepare his food.
An exceptional stay in Kyoto. Beautiful atmosphere, impeccable service, and genuinely warm hospitality. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, making the entire experience truly unforgettable.
The room was WOW! And the stuff as well.
This was an EXCELLENT hotel! Great location, right above Kyoto station and if you’re heading to either of Osaka airports, there is a shuttle that can take you there directly. Room was very clean! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also great, many options. Wish I could have stayed longer.
This hotel was absolutely top-notch. Extremely well attended by staff. Excellent, incredibly comfortable rooms and bedding. Stayed 3 nights and wish I’d had more time there.
This is a great hotel in a perfect location. Clean, excellent service. Sleek and stylish. Rooms are a good size and the linen is what you would expect from a hotel like this.
Beautifully modern hotel. Right next to Kyoto Station so very convenient. Nearest coin laundry is 3-4 blocks away which isn’t ideal. Opt for the breakfast buffet as it’s exceptional for AYCE.
Very good, clean, equipped, located hotel. Good breakfast with spacious room. Very close to train station, specially if you consider Kyoto as a hub to have day trips to Hiroshima, Nagoya, Osaka. Very friendly staff.
