"Loved this hotel!!! It was only a 10min walk from Kyoto station and just a few minutes from 7/11. I stayed in the annex and not the main building but still had all the same amenities. Staff was super helpful and nice, plus the food in there was amazing. Room was bigger than I expected and had plenty of space for my suitcase to be open on the ground and still walk around. Will definitely stay here again the next time I visit Kyoto!"
