The hotel was located in a quiet neighbourhood with a decent amount of walkable options nearby for entertainment and food. A bus stop is located less than 5 minutes away as well. The staff was great and accommodating, the free drinks from 3-6 were a very nice touch, the room was both looked nice and was clean while being decently spacious. The buffet breakfast was decent, however for 2750 yen it was a bit pricy. Would stay again for sure.

Disliked: Amenities
Really nice aesthetic to the hotel. However, No washing facilities which is annoying when travelling with family. Also no black out blinds so the room is light at sunrise! Location is ok, some small restaurants and convenience stores, however away from shopping area so we had to get taxis everywhere.

Beautiful hotel. Super clean and beautify transitional Japanese decoration. Staff is nice and friendly. Only problem is that it’s not too close to San Jo and Si Jo which is city centre. But Kyoto is pretty small. One way taxi is about $15 AUD.

Beautiful and spacious rooms. Definitely made us feel like we were in Japan in the best way possible. They gave my 6 year old a welcome packet that was super thoughtful and got her all excited for the stay. I wished it was closer to main attractions of Kyoto. However the bus stop was pretty close making it easy to get to our other destinations.
