Amazing property in the heart of Kyoto. Refined, modern, quiet with a supremely satisfying breakfast buffet in Kanra Kitchen each morning, adding this on to your hotel booking is a must, great value and high quality. Twin room in annex building was plenty of space for our family of 4, our boys enjoyed sleeping on the tatami mats in their own beds in the floor, enjoyed the sleek vibe of the room and wonderful shower and wooden soaking tub. Free sake, beers, wine and juice in the lobby lounge a nice touch. Convenient to bus and subway lines to explore the city. This hotel was perfect!

Such an amazing hotel experience. We had a suite for 4 and we loved it! Very relaxing in the middle of the city with its own onsen. From its own garden entering the room to the peaceful aesthetics of the room, it provided the perfect oasis after busy days walking through Kyoto. Staff was friendly and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming boutique hotel in Kyoto! The rooms were spotless, beautifully designed, and offered a calm, peaceful atmosphere—perfect after a day of sightseeing. What really stood out was the warm, welcoming staff who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. From the moment we arrived, their kindness and attention to detail reflected the spirit of authentic Japanese hospitality. The location was also great—quiet yet convenient to explore the city. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and truly local experience in Kyoto!

The room was beautiful and traditional and spacious for four adults. The staffs were friendly and spoke good English. We stayed during July and it was too hot to walk so we used taxi but close to major touristic attraction places. 7-11 is very close by. I will definitely stay again if I have an opportunity.
