We had a wonderful stay in two rooms for our family of 5. The rooms were spacious and stylish, and the breakfast was wonderful. We also loved the location - very close to Gion district and lots of delicious restaurants. Central to the various sites we wanted to see during ing our 5 day trip. Both the lunch and dinner were formal, but delicious!!!

Staff at the hotel were very friendly and accomodating. The facility is new and clean. The reason for taking 1 star off is because of the food. My stay included breakfast and I was looking forward to a continental style breakfast. However, the options are limited and I wish there was more variety on the menu to CC oose from. Taste wise, I have had better tasting breakfast elsewhere at a lower tier hotel. In summary, I think hotel can do more to revamp the breakfast menu and offer bigger portions/more variety of food.
