The overall hotel stay was wonderful, and the front desk staff was incredible helpful with suggestions. They also offer Yamato luggage service from the front desk but wished I’ve known earlier when I checked in, so I could’ve timed my delivery. Hotel condition was great, and location was great! However, during our stay, we didn’t receive room cleaning on time during any of the day. It was a bit inconvenient especially when we came back to our dirty room to relax a bit and not knowing when the maid would come knocking for cleaning. It was minor, but it was one of the little things. Bar service was slow but breakfast service was amazing.

Very convenient, close to many points of interest in South Higashiyama area. The staff was great. Very helpful and friendly. One minus: the layout of the room is such that it’s difficult to comfortably put down two large suitcases and open them easily for daily use.

If you are in a budget but want to stay at a nice hotel book this… you would not regret staying here.. rooms are not that big but you are supposed to go out and walk around the city. Now if you are traveling with 4 suit cases then it will be small l. But that shouldn’t be an issue with the hotel l. I would stay here again, every day 100% would recommend

Excellent Staff

The staff here was amazing - everyone was super helpful. I want to specifically thank Joseph, at the front desk, for getting us a restaurant reservation (neither of us speak Japanese, and this restaurant would have been impossible for us without Joseph's help!). The room was smaller than expected based on the photography, but it was fine. Overall, the breakfast and the comfort-level of the room made this hotel seem expensive compared to others we stayed in while in Japan, but it may just be that Kyoto is expensive. It's possible that the onsen here is part of what you're paying for, and we just weren't interested in that for this part of our trip. Location is excellent.
