Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
What I didn’t like was the bedding, which was very hard, the pillows, which were stiff, the lack of adequate air conditioning, and the entire key system, which was too complicated. The location was wonderful and the staff very helpful and polite. The grounds were beautiful, especially the restaurant which had views of a koi pond and gardens.

This is a good choice to have the convenience of a modern hotel in a vary traditional and historic Japanese setting. The hotel is a 15 minute walk from the two nearest metro stations, but you can take the walk through the Imperial Garden. The south stop offers direct service to Kinkauji Temple on the 204 and the north stop offers direct service to Gingakuji Temple on the 203. And the Imperial Palace is right across the street. Restaurant was very good. Wifi worked fine. Staff's language ability was limited.

I loved this hotel! It is within walking distance of a train station where you can easily get to the Kyoto station. The hotel is around a nice quiet area, and it is very aesthetically pleasing. The only thing was thay out our room was "non-smoking" but there was still a lingering cigarrette smell, but overall I would definitely stay here again.
