Hard as rock bed, steep stairs down on entryway made it very difficult going in and out (with suitcase), noisy people in nearby rooms. Would never stay there again. It was the most expensive hotel I stayed at during by trip back to Japan, but it was by far the worst

The mini refrigerator had no space , only you can put 4 or 5 cans of drinks. You wont be able to fit any 2L water bottle inside that. Smaller than any mini fridge I have ever seen, almost useless. And only one microwave in the lobbybeside receptionist.

Excellent hotel, conveniently situated from lots of Kyoto landmarks such as Nijō castle that is about a 20 minute walk. If you want to book a short stay in Kyoto I can't recommend this hotel enough.

The place was spotless, quiet, and in a very central location for all temples and other spots that you need to visit. Almost every attraction you’d want to see in Kyoto is well within a 1h radius of the hotel. Staff were very kind and helpful

Comfortable hotel at a great price

The hotel offered a free shuttle to the Golden Temple and bamboo forest. We loved both, but if you have only one day in Kyoto, skip both and go to the 1000 Tori Gates at Fushimi Inari instead. The room was comfortable but small, as most hotel rooms in Japan are. Note that the hotel is about a 30-minute walk from the centre area.

Comfort and affordable

We booked this hotel at the last minute (with a good price, luckily). Their family room saved our day. Each person has own bed for a good night of sleep. And their breakfast buffet is delicious and affordable.
