I chose this hotel because it was close to the meeting point for my sightseeing tour and also offered a Japanese-style spa with a sauna. The location was excellent, right in front of Kyoto Station, with many restaurants, shops, and convenience stores nearby.
Like most business hotels in Japan, the room was small, but it was sufficient for a short stay of one or two nights.

Kyoto: fantastic city, very nice hotel.
The stay at the hotel was great, Kyoto is wonderful. The hotel's location is fantastic, directly across form the airport bus depot. Th breakfast buffet is well stocked and offers some nice local options. The only problem was that we had three people, and the double room was turned into a triple by putting an extra bed in. We cold not easily move in the room. Staff was friendly and nice. I would stay here again if we had one or two people.
Great location next to Kyoto station…will stay again for next visit
