Great location, very nice and clean room. Reception especially helpful with all our requests and helping us arrange our luggage to be forwarded to the next hotel.

This hotel is amazing and the staff working there is awesome and always helpful. It's located right besides the famous 5-storey pagoda. All the attractions in this area are walkable distance. The staff is always there to help with any kind of questions and provide suggestions for anything. The lady (Shun) was always there for us, helped with our luggage and allowed us to do a early check in as well. She is the best. :)

Best hotel in Kyoto! We stayed 6 nights here. This hotel is very clean, in a handy location and offers very convenient coin operated laundry facilities. The rooms are large and spacious with an industrial style. There was no TV however we don’t use one when on holiday so this didn’t bother us at all. This was my favourite hotel during our Japan travels. Only negative thing to say is housekeeping didn’t replenish tea/coffee or clean our cups. This hotel is on a hill and can be difficult for vehicles to reach and is very slippery when wet. The roof top was a great spot to chill with a beer watching the sunset!

Great hotel, rooms and property very aesthetically pleasing…industrial chic. Wish more toiletries were offered, also when room cleaned that other things like cups and coffee were changed and provided not just sheets done. Area super crowded all The time by tourists so just FYI. Also food nearby very expensive

Nice decor, helpful staff and great location. They should include actual towels instead of bathrobes. Also doors being metal is a problem because you can hear opening/closing from rooms.

Close to Ninenzaka and Kiyomizu-dear within walking distance. Stylish minimal design, nice to have CD player with customised RC hotel play list.

Incredible location, helpful staff, great style throughout, excellently comfy bed and REAL PILLOWS (which are apparently hard to come by in Japan..) I stayed in a few of these smaller, boutique style mid-range hotels throughout my trip and this was my favourite accomodation by far. For me it was just the little details; the welcome box, the magnet housekeeping system, the additional blankets/heating for the colder week, bottled water in the fridge, the embossed notepad on the desk - everything was just exactly how it needed to be. If you have any love of design, interior decoration, brutalist architecture, or just want to be 30 seconds away from beating the crowds to get "that picture" on all the travel blogs - this is your place.

Love the exceptional service. We arrived at 5pm on our check in date and was not able to rent a kimono in time. We were only there for a night and wanted to get photos on the hotel's rooftop. Upon check out, we had reserved to rent a kimono with a shop nearby, so we asked the receptionist if we can leave our luggage and come back to take a few photos on their rooftop. She was more than happy to assist us. This has been one of the best hotels we have stayed in Japan and will surely come back :)

The hotel was very cute inside and it was clean. Loved that it’s so close to the pagoda. The only complaint I have is that the dryer was clearly broken because it made a very loud noise when in use. I was trying to take a nap and it was so loud it woke me up. The dryer also took a very long time to dry my clothes in a small load, so you need to be prepared to spend a good amount of time to do any loads of laundry. The staff was very friendly and I liked the lounge/bar area. Another negative would be that there is a bright light that shines in the window by the front door all night and there’s no curtains to block it out.

First of all, the location of this hotel is perfect. It’s right in the Gion district, walking distance from the cute shopping and restaurants. We could even see the pagoda from our room. The room was clean when we arrived and had plenty of room for two travelers and our belongings. We appreciated the amenities including the robes and slippers. The sink outside of the bathroom was nice for multiple travelers. The downside was that the room was never cleaned. They would empty the trash, and clean the floors but our beds went unmade, and the sinks and shower were never cleaned. We asked for a change of towels that took all day to receive. The WiFi was also very weak. Overall we were satisfied with our stay but expected more from the service.
