Rooms were clean and beds were sooooo comfortable. Location is near many stations (shijo-Gion to the south and Sanjo to the north). Close to the river and other historic neighbourhoods. Honestly an ideal home base for your Kyoto adventure. Staff is attentive and friendly and the hotel and area are quiet. We didn’t opt for the Japanese style breakfast but we saw them in the morning and they looked good. ##### Jarvis Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexa 23 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staff were super friendly, rooms really nice and very easy to walk around ##### Alexa Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sheri 12 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved the breakfast, the staff, and the location and value.
