Excellent spacious apartment hotel in Kyoto
This was our favorite place we stayed in Japan. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment - it was spacious and modern and clean. we liked the location too - near the Niko-Jo place and Imperial Garden. Would recommend for a family traveling to Kyoto. Only downside is front desk is only open between 3-8pm but it didn’t pose a problem for us.

We had a great stay at this property! We stayed in the 2 floor family room which was huge and so comfortable! The outdoor bath was awesome and the area is very convenient. The property was tidy and modern and staff were friendly! Highly recommend!

Bed was comfy, things were clean and it was close to a train station, grocery store, park and restaurants. The bar was closed for the four nights we were there. The room was not cleaned or restocked with coffee or clean cups while we were there as the front desk is only staffed from 3-8pm.
The staff was very friendly and polite.

Very friendly staff and the room was big and good. But there was mold on the curtain in the bathroom and by the window in the main room. There was also chips between the beds and food under the sofa. So it wasn’t cleaned propper enough unfortunately. Hope that will be fixed for future guests. It was good besides that.

The hotel location was at a convenient location. Walkable streets for grabbig snacks, dining and subway transportation. We interacted with staff just upon checkin as they were not present at the front desk. The upstairs hot tub was not clean; had hair left from previous guests. Other than that, amazing.

Room was more spacious compared to other hotels we’ve been to for the price. Had a microwave/toaster available for use and had umbrellas set aside for customers to use. Only improvement would be for more light in the room - despite having many light options/areas in the room, it was very dim lighting during the night

A comfortable room, however their was no one at the desk upon arrival despite arriving at 3pm. The contact number to call was 'disconnected', leaving us feeling quite anxious after a long day of travel. It was only by accident that our arrival was acknowledged and another guest assisted us.

Kind and helpful staff, room is spacious, but a bit too dark. Only a few spotlights in an already very dark room, making it a bit difficult to even see things. Hotel is located in the Marutamachi avenue, near a train station and many bus stops, making it easy to move around the city.

This is an excellent hotel for business and pleasure. The shower and the toilet are in separate rooms and have noise cancellation. The room is spacious and has high-quality amenities. It is close by to many stores and restaurants. It is within walking distance of the train and is easily accessed. The staff/hotel is staffed during check-in hours. Make sure that you let the hotel know that you will need to drop off bags prior to check-in or you'll be lugging them around town like us. Otherwise, no complaints at all.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay in MATERIAL FUCHOMAE.
The suite is spacious, beddings are comfortable, location is good. Staff is nice, especially Seina san who assisted our check-in smoothly. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to enjoy our welcome drinks. Overall, it’s highly recommended!

The staff was kind and the room was clean with a lot of thoughtful details (free drink, slippers, nice bathroom amenities). The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was due to there being essentially no heat except a stand alone heater that didn’t work well, leaving it quite cold in the room. In addition, the room was VERY dark and small.

Stayed for a number of nights with family of 5 including. 3 small children under 9, first time in Kyoto. Staff provided exceptional service and very friendly. The rooms and beddings were very comfortable and we had the entire floor to ourselves. The setup of the space was very intuitive and useable. Very close to Nijo-Jo. Loved the place and will be returning in Dec! Only asking is laundry facility would make it perfect!

Our room was pretty decent, it was really clean, and had proper amenities. The TV is small and only has 4 channels. The bathroom tub is small but quite deep so that was nice for a small person like me. There's a lot of traffic noise, even when the windows are closed, but the streets quiet down after about midnight.
Our room was modern and stylish. I highly recommend it, especially for the price. When we checked in, reception gave us a free drink and snack coupon for the bar on the first floor.
