The hotel was in a perfect location within walking distance of great markets and restaurants. The staff was friendly and our room was very clean and spacious. We loved the coffe facilities and the little gifts provided by the staff (ie bottled water and slippers). Would definately stay here again.

Excellent small Kyoto hotel
Lovely small hotel in a vibrant area of Kyoto with great shopping and lots of eating places and bars nearby. McDonalds and Starbucks close by for breakfast. Very close to the subway and easy to get around the city. We had the deluxe twin room and it was spacious by Japanese standards. Nice to have two beds, a/c worked well. No place to hang clothes in the room except for a small coat rack. a wall rack with hooks would be a welcome addition. Washer/dryer on the ground floor was not expensive and very handy. No English channels on the tv, only Japanese channels. Excellent choice for a trip to Kyoto.

Really convenient location and helpful front desk. Room was not as pictured online, much smaller with a very small window. Additionally you could hear a lot of noise from the hallway.

Location was great, alot of food and shops around. Service was good, room was good. The only downside and possible improvement for the hotel is that the door is unlocked by key. Maybe changing it to those auto doors using card may be better and more convenient. Other than that, a good hotel, would choose it again.

The location was superb. Not very far from umeda sky building, train station just a few steps away from the venue. Room is clean, a bit old actually but acceptable. It would be a bit nice if they put an additional warmer inside the room because the heater from the air conditioner cannot warm up the place intirely and we were a bit cold. But overall it was ok.
