Perfect location on the Walk to get into Universal early and back to your room at the end of a long day. Great breakfast buffet. Loads of eating options on the walk for dinner. Also a great location to walk to the ferry terminal to go across to the aquarium and Ferris wheel.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff members were friendly and helpful, the decor and atmosphere were unique and relaxing, and it offered an excellent location near two of the main subway lines. I will definitely stay here again if I have the opportunity to visit Kyoto again!
