Review: Very helpful staff and the view of the pagoda from the room is great. Also loved having a coffee stand right outside the hotel. Downside is 99% of taxi drivers won’t want to drive directly to the hotel, so you’ll have to drag your luggage up the hill through crowds of people., by Marion

Review: Beautiful large room. Huge bed. Great food and drinks. Stunning roof terrace. Breakfast was delicious. Just book it!, by Rhashan, 14 November 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: Exquisitely beautiful and elegant hotel in a prime location in central Kyoto next to the local market and shops. 2 metro stops away from Kyoto station where you can catch the Shinkansen to Tokyo or Osaka. The staff are incredibly lovely, they are the most polite people and want to help with everything. They safely stored our bags before and after our stay so we could maximise exploring Kyoto. The hotel is presented very well with a classic modern Japanese feel. The room was very spacious with..., by Joseph, 16 October 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: The hotel is fairly new. It is centrally located within the district we stayed in about 4 km from Kyoto Station. The hotel staff were very helpful when we had to change our travel plans due to the cyclone that hit Tokyo and managed to find us alternative rooms in the hotel. Excellent service., by Hob2y, 11 October 2019, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: Amazing hotel. It has a really central location with so much within a few minutes walk. The hotel is quiet and comfortable with really friendly staff. I wouldn’t hesitate to book for my next trip to Kyoto, by James, 28 July 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: The place to go if you want the feel of Ryokan but want the modern amenities. Each room is gorgeous, and so well thought down to the tiniest detail. Would put it at the level of the Four Seasons or Park Hyatt. The wooden gated entry to every room, with its own rock garden makes it feel like you are coming home. The welcome locally made sweets and tea/cold towels at check in are some of the touches that make the place special. The only downside is the lack of a proper gym., by Kevin, 4 October 2023, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: Stayed at this hotel for 6 nights and enjoyed it very much. It has a very good location in Kyoto, the staff are friendly, and breakfast buffet delicious!, by Henrieta, 5 July 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: A nice hotel that's only a 5 minute walk from the nearest train station and 10 minutes from the nearest subway station, and therefore ideal for tourists. The rooms, while on the small side are nice and the beds fairly comfortable. Free toiletries are available for use though most of them are kept in the lobby not the rooms. There's also a small selection of decent selection of restaurants nearby as well as convenience stores. Overall a very pleasant experience and highly recommended., by Alexander Lawrence, 17 October 2023, rated 10/10 Excellent
