This hotel is so well situated in the city with easy walks to many of the sights and lots of restaurants and shops. The breakfast was delicious. The snacks in our room were plentiful and we were encouraged to take them with us to enjoy on our journey. We would return on our next trip.

We had a wonderful stay in two rooms for our family of 5. The rooms were spacious and stylish, and the breakfast was wonderful. We also loved the location - very close to Gion district and lots of delicious restaurants. Central to the various sites we wanted to see during ing our 5 day trip.
Both the lunch and dinner were formal, but delicious!!!
