Great Kyoto Stay
We loved the casual feel of this hotel. All the staff were super welcoming every time you arrived or left the building. Walkable to many attractions. We enjoyed a glass of wine at the bar every evening. A lovely way to end the day

The room size is big for japan standard. Plus they have laundry on every floor. The shower is amazingly strong and the temperature is hot. The location is amazing. Close to all resturants and shops. Will stay there again.
Nos gustó muchísimo, las áreas comunes son muy lindas, el árbol en medio del hotel lo hace muy acogedor. Las habitaciones son amplias y cómodas; todo muy limpio. Lo único que no nos gustó, fue encontrar todas las luces prendidas de nuestra habitaciones el día que tocó limpieza, la cuál por cierto es solo 1 por cada 3 noches de hospedaje. Por todo lo demás, nos gustó mucho, la ubicación y amenidades. Si lo recomendamos ampliamente.
