Very convenient location located directly across Kyoto Station. Lots of food and shopping around the area. Staff were all helpful during checkin/checkout process. Ask them about luggage transfer if you are traveling to more than one area and will be changing hotels.

The best hotel to stay in Kyoto. The hotel’s conveniently located near the trains, but is also in the quieter side of Kyoto which I prioritise on my holidays. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. The hotel itself had great breakfast an ambience to the hotel. 5/5 stars!!

Staff was very helpful. I had lost my earphones and had already moved on to Osaka and Hiroshima. I contacted staff and they were very responsive and communicated well even holding the earphones for a couple of days until I could return to pick them up.

A very solid tourist class 4 star hotel. Rooms were immaculately clean. Some rooms are a bit on the small side but not bad for Japan. The location is perfect just a couple blocks from the main train station. The breakfast was ok. Free soft drinks and coffee at all times is a nice touch. The bathrooms are huge. Very solid if you don’t plan on spending too much time inside the room. All spaces in the hotel were immaculately clean.

Location was good, walking distance to Kyoto Station. Got the superior twin room, which was a decent size compared to other hotel rooms. However, there was no view from our window. Room amenities and daily housekeeping was great. They offered free drinks in the lounge. Breakfast was okay for the price, not a lot of choices for a buffet. Had better breakfast elsewhere. Front desk staff was okay.
