The hotel is absolutely lovely. I will say that the beds are very hard as are in the pillows, but overall the staff is very friendly. The amenities are great.

The rooms were very clean, and the staff was friendly. We added breakfast to our stay, and it was a good decision. Overall, a nice place to stay.
Tatsiana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s great but the room had a very funny musty smell. The onsen is open only till 11, which is unusual. Better places around, like the one next door with an onsen that is open all night long, and a very Japanese feel.

Lovely reasonably priced. Hotel
Judith, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is clean, had good comfy bed, good shower and good staff. The best thing is that it is only 5 mins walk from Kyoto Station which was very convenient; since the Station itself had many restaurants, stores, and even a dept. store (Isetan). I feel it is the perfect location to get around Kyoto.
