It was a great hotel but very close to kiyomizudera temple which causes the area to be really busy and hard to get around. Just something to keep in mind.

This was the most inexpensive hotel of our trip and yet we loved it. Close to Kiyomizu temple and Gion district. They were very helpful and friendly. Gave us a free water bottle each, and a beautiful cookie at check out. Had all the amenities you needed, brush, razor, toothbrush, creams and face wash as well as extra pillows if you need. They have laundry on site as well as a rooftop terrace. Would definitely stay here again!!

Charming small hotel super conveniently located near Kiyomizu Temple. The room was small but adequate, and we didn’t come to Kyoto to spend time in the room. The lobby foyer and upper deck were spacious and inviting in a cozy way. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, offering advice on where to eat and explore.

The best part of this hotel is the staff. Very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed sitting in the front seating area that had tables, refreshments, and manga to read. It was a nice place to sit and have dinner when the rain kept us from walking around one evening. The hotel had plenty of common areas for you to enjoy in case you wanted to get away from your room. Location was great, a short walk up the hill to Kiyomizu-Dera, a kimono shop around the corner, and a dumpling restaurant right next door.

A nice little hotel near to Gion. It's within walking distance of many things, such as temples, shopping, and restaurants. Like much of the rest of old Kyoto, the streets can be cramped and confusing, but the hotel has a helpful map with local destinations. The staff speak enough English to help with local tourism. Rooms are clean and I appreciate how cold the AC goes, (16° C!!). The shower was a little cramped with poor water pressure, but not to a problematic extent. Free drinks in the lobby are appreciated too. A souvenir water bottle in lieu of traditional water bottles in the room was also very nice. A good hotel for small groups or couples.
