Liked: Amenities
Nicely appointed hotel with welcoming staff and clean, comfortable, fairly spacious room. It’s possible to walk to attractions such as the old Imperial Palace, but these places are not close by, and a taxi is a more realistic option. Breakfast was nicely varied with Japanese and western items, and elegantly served.

Location was exactly what we wanted from this portion of our family holiday. Hidden amongst the small streets of Kyoto and a short taxi ride from nearly everything. Room was very spacious and staff were helpful. There is a an extremely well stocked supermarket + pharmacy withing walking distance which was great. Highly recommend.

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.
