The rooms are nicely designed, but could be more practical. This hotel showcases coolness. Staff is courteous and professional. The location is primo, right in the center of town, with easy access to public transport, shops, restaurants,etc.

I was in Japan for 2 weeks, stayed in 5 locations. This was my absolute favorite hotel and location. Walkable to and from train and bus locations, shopping and fabulous restaurants all super close. Beautiful property! Very comfortable room. Soaking tub was perfect (on average we walked 20k steps a day) absolutely recommend this hotel.

Perfect little place in Downtown. Walkable to almost everything and you really get a sense of downtown Kyoto. Short walk to Nishiki Market and Teramachi Dori. Great restaurants all around. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Room was super clean and the Hiba-wood tub was fantastic. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel was beautiful. Lovely minimalist in an area removed from the tourist bustle but also close enough to walk to major attractions. The room's features made the stay perfect. The free sake in the lobby was a pleasant surprise!

Loved the washer/dryer in the room! Didn’t have to worry about going off property or a shared room to wash our clothes. This hotel was conveniently tucked in a neighborhood with a bunch of shopping store fronts near by. Being within a few minutes walking to gion, I’d recommend this place to anyone visiting Kyoto!

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay here. The staff and amenities were so lovely and we would recommend it to other people!
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff was incredibly kind and accommodating throughout my visit. There was a small issue with my room upon arrival, but it was handled quickly and professionally, and the change truly improved my overall experience.
I really appreciated the amenities and the layout of the room — it was spacious, thoughtfully designed, and very comfortable. The welcome sake was a lovely touch and added to the social, traveler-friendly atmosphere of the hotel.
The beds were a bit unique, and it took me about a day to fully adjust, but once I did, they were very comfortable. One of the biggest highlights for me was having access to in-room laundry with a washer and dryer, which made the stay especially convenient.
Overall, this hotel offered a great balance of comfort, functionality, and hospitality, and I would happily stay here again.

Very spacious and clean rooms, having a washing machine and dryer inside the room was a huge bonus. The neighborhood is walkable and in a safe area. Front desk staff was extremely welcoming, polite, warm, and most of all professional. Above and beyond my expectations, we truly feel welcomed and at home. Thank-you
