Our room was very clean and the washer/dryer saved us a trip to the laundromat. My family loved the multiple rooms. Accessibility to the Gion market made it easy. We loved Kyoto and all it has to offer.

This property is somewhat self service because there is no regular front desk person to help 24/7. The room was clean and spacious with great amenities including a full kitchen and in room laundry facilities. The staff was very friendly and helpful when called upon.

This hotel is close Nishiki market and to many shrine/temples. It’s very convenient and walkable to shopping and dining.
The accomodation was perfect for our family, the only complaint was the confusing check in. I was lucky to have a tech savvy teenager to help me ( my son). Otherwise i would stay here again. Clothes washing machine and kitchen were super handy.
Location, size of the room and convenience 5 stars. Check in and out , very fast. Next time, i Will stay again at this hotel

You won’t regret staying here! All the amenities and prompt service they provide is excellent and it’s very close to train station and shopping area! I would stay here again if I visit Japan again! Highly recommended!
Great location, great amenities and having access to a hot tub, cold plunge and sauna is just what is needed after a long day of exploring and walking 12+ miles. Staff is very nice and helpful. Stay here don’t over think it.

Great, clean property. We liked that it was a 5-10 minute walk from tourist areas. It is located on a Main Street so our room could hear some traffic, but with so much walking, it certainly didn’t affect our sleep!
