This hotel should be rated 5star. It is impeccably clean. The staff are so caring and helpful. The bento box breakfast as great. Great location to everything! This is by far one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in and I have travelled the world and stayed in many! Great value for the luxury experience you are getting

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is very clean. It is a newer hotel that is tastefully designed in Japanese aesthetics. They have used high end materials throughout and the shower and Toto toilet are exceptional quality. All this for a low to medium price. Great value.

10/10 Exceptional

It’s a spacious room exactly as same as the photos I have seen. Good service and polite provided by staff. Excellent bath tub and mini garden view which placed in the middle of the room, super nice and relax! Highly recommend if anyone of you are planning go Kyoto. I will stay more than a night next time!
Ojai, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location, did not like that they didn’t give any extra time to checkout and got a call rushing me to get out of the room.
José Luis, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great little hotel in the center of Kyoto walking distance to most of the downtown attractions and endless number of restaurants. The staff is very professional, friendly and efficient. The rooms are small with a frosted window looking into the 2 ft space between buildings. However given the price , the location and the high quality of the rooms, furnishing and state of repair, this hotel is a great place to stay. The full set breakfast included was very different than what we usually eat for breakfast but all very good: fruit salad, croissant, eggs, bacon, chicken, fish seaweed, meat balls, potatoes, and salad!
3-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice and comfy but service needs to be improved

The location is super convenient and easy to locate. Stayed for 2 nights at the premier twins which was comfortable and clean. The only downside was the receptionists' attitude, they were only polite and helpful to the domestic travelers but not to the international travelers. We were having such a hard time to ask them helping to make restaurants booking which was almost like begging them to help. If they're so unwilling to help foreign tourists, then they shouldn't be in the hospitality industry.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel's location are close to Shijo station and Nishiki market, so always an options to get lunch in the Nishiki market and plenty Izakaya open till late for dinner plus konbini around them. They provide plenty amenities like hair brush, tooth brush and pyjama. Room design & furniture looks modern and new. My only complain perhaps that pillow is way too hard and very uncomfortable for me, got neck pain because of it. Since there's 2 pillow each bed, appreciate if its different in hardness.
