Perfect location and ambience! Would highly recommend staying here for a Kyoto adventure. Walkable to almost everything you would want to see and near great restaurants. Staff friendly and helpful.
The hotel is just a year old and very modern. The rooms are nice. Staff is good. The location is perfect with restaurants and shopping in walking distance. A very good choice.
Modern and stylish hotel well situated in Kyoto central area within walking distance of many attractions. Staff is friendly and eager to help. Breakfast had a wide selection of well made option. I would stay there again and recommend it as great option. The public onsen was a nice experience. We also reserved the private onsen and it was an excellent experience.
The property is extremely clean, quiet and the staff was very professional. The hotel is conveniently located in central Kyoto with Nishiki market only a few minutes walk away.
