Rooms are the quietest and darkest. Great for sleeping and immaculately clean. Lobby is cool with a fun bartender who plays US oldie music. Onsen was beautiful. Very well located near 2 train stops. My daughter left her passport in room at checkout, which they promptly returned to us. Very highly recommend!!!!

Nice location close to downtown area and close to transportation. Quiet with very nice common areas, amenities and friendly staff. The AC in the room could not keep the room cool and the room was very cozy, so that was a surprise.

This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel in the last 6 months and it’s a great value for the price. The neighborhood is convenient to lots of hotspots but is quite quiet. The staff does a nice job taking care of the hotel. It isn’t super luxurious but really nice for a short trip to Kyoto. I would stay here again.

One of the few mid price hotels in Kyoto with an onsen. Rooms are small but nice. Opulent bathroom with wonderful pola products. Very good breakfast with both Japanese and western options. Convenient walking to Gion/ Higashiyama area. Easy access to 2 train stations. 10 minute taxi ride to JR station. A few improvements: there are no drawers so please provide more hangers. Bathrooms are large but lack counter space around sink so add shelves please.
Stayed 7 nights in May 2025

10/10

Amazing property, especially for the price (near $100 USD per night). Great location for shopping, sight seeing and train. Very stylish room with extra seating and just enough room for luggage. Very friendly staff and nice lounge area. The men’s onsen was also very cool. Would not look anywhere else if I stay in Kyoto again in the future.
