A truly exceptional and unique hotel experience in the heart of Higashiyama. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a special place to stay while in Kyoto. A worthwhile destination in its own right, and absolutely wonderful hospitality and service.

If you can afford to splurge, this place is a treasure. Service like I’ve never experienced, and beautiful rooms and a great location. The restaurants are fancy French, also extremely good, but we didn’t dine in. This place is world-class.😊

美しい建物と素晴らしいホスピタリティで大満足です。品格のあるホテルですのにおもてなしはまるで家族に迎えられるような温かみも感じられました。周辺はとても静かで人で賑わう京都の街中とは思えない落ち着きがありました。何度でも泊まりたいホテルです。
