Staff excellent, surprisingly good breakfast, close to the train and buses. Walking distance from Kyoto station, Higashi Hongan, and Tōji. Next to the line that takes you to Osaka in something like half an hour.

The staff were all very nice and accommodating. We got there early because we were super hungover but they let us into the room early and the place was pretty fancy.

The hotel, meticulously restored by renowned architect Tadao Ando, is a masterpiece of design, embracing the spirit of the Showa era with exquisite art-deco detailing. This architectural elegance seamlessly translates into a delightful ambiance at Carta, the restaurant within, complementing our enjoyment.

The best hotel stay we’ve had!
Absolutely amazing - the best hotel I’ve stayed in and made for a memorable Kyoto visit. The service was incredible and there was something extra special about staying in a part of Nintendo history. We’ll return again as soon as we can.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel is very nice, super quirky and there’s a lot of included extras which is always a nice touch. But it’s not all wonderful. The area is quite a way from where you’d want to be in Kyoto and there’s very few shops around. Also the staff are very young and inexperienced with poor English (which is needed in a hotel like this). They tried their best but the hotel needs at least one “adult in the room” and it was sorely missing here. I’d definitely come back to Kyoto, but I’m not sure I’d come back here
