Good location, I liked the onsen. Service was rubbish if you want to use concierge facilities (eg to book restaurants) before you arrive.

Our favorite hotel from a 16 day trip.
This hotel is FANTASTIC. Our superior two twin bed room doesn't have much of a view.... but everything else about this hotel we love. We originally booked this hotel for 2 nights and decided to stay for 5 nights. The location is perfect. It is very close to many great restaurants and markets. We can walk to most everywhere we want to go. It is also very close to all forms of public transportation. It is not in a super busy part of Kyoto. It is city life that feels very pleasant and easy to manage. The hotel is immaculate, it is the cleanest hotel we have stayed in and we have been all over Japan. The housekeeping does a fantastic job. Every day we feel we are returning to a room that was prepared for new guests! The hotel has an onsen, but we haven't tried it yet. They have a lounge that offers drinks and snacks that are included in your stay! It is lovely and we have met many people in the lounge. The staff has been super kind and friendly. They have laundry machines that wash and dry. Everything in the hotel is beautiful. We highly recommend it.

It is right down town and you can walk to many tourist sites. The temples and shrines are located outside the city due to high taxes.

This was a great location as we were able to walk to several iconic activities even in the heat. An easy Uber ride from Kyoto Station. There were other stations close too.
The evening nibbles were high quality and a nice selection of alcohol.
Room was well appointed and very comfortable. A really nice stay with lovely staff attention.

A nice modern hotel. The lounge was a bonus. Free afternoon tea snacks, and then beer, wine and cocktails all included from 5 pm to 9 pm! Convenience shops nextbdoor. A short walk to many restaurants but the shopping was a bit further.

What a gem of a hotel we discovered in the heart of Kyoto but just minutes from so many things we wanted to do. We only had 2 days in Kyoto & this was the perfect base for us to work from!
