Staff was very helpful. The lobby and public areas are very clean. I was disappointed when I got a notice saying I would be charged 3000yen a night if we continued to use the the duvet for the sofa bed. The beds are very small for an adult and child. We opted for eco-cleaning, but the beds were only made once.

Lovely hotel in a great location - a little less crazy than central hotels. Staff (particularly the restaurant greeters) were simply lovely! Friendly, courteous and very efficient. Breakfast was excellent quality and great variety, well worth including in your stay. Social hour could get a little busy (holiday weekend?) but the food and drinks on offer were excellent. VERY happy with our Kyoto hotel choice!

The hotel lobby is spacious and the staffs are very nice and polite. The room design is great, tidy and clean. There are many restaurants near the hotel. There is a supermarket next to the hotel too. The hotel location is near the city Center and very convenient to go to shopping. There are the free drinks including beer, wine , juice, coffee or tea and snacks in the hotel restaurant. Moreover there are two time slots for u to choose. I will come again next time.

This hotel was a beautiful sanctuary in Kyoto. The foyer and lounge were spacious and luxurious, and the generous buffet breakfast and complimentary drinks and snacks in the lounge were a highlight. Our room was smaller than we expected, but everything was impeccably clean, modern and well planned. Highly recommend.
