I almost don't want to tell anyone how fabulous this place is in case it's booked out for when I next want to visit! This hotel is absolutely amazing, with a location you just can't beat - right in the heart of Higashiyama, a 1 minute walk up the street from the Yasaka Pagoda and a convenient walk to everywhere you need to go in the area. The sunset view of both the pagoda and the Kyoto skyline on the rooftop is stunning, don't miss it. The staff are really friendly and helpful, and the room itself was huge! I loved the modern industrial vibe, it was really cool. I will definitely stay here again!

This was the largest room I had on the whole trip. The room was very nice, decorated in loft style, everything is thought out to the smallest detail. The staff were very friendly and helpful in all matters. Just before we left, I found out that there was a roof top with amazing view of the old town, don’t miss it!!! The location is very good, almost in the centre of the old town, lots of cafes and restaurants nearby 👌🏻. There is a coffee point next to the hotel where guests get a discount. It's a place you really want to go back to. I highly recommend it !!!!

Located right in the Kiyomizu-dera neighborhood, very close to the shrine itself. The room was incredibly spacious. Could see Yasaka Pagoda from the window. Had a clothesline which came in handy for laundry. Very stylish place but also extremely functional. Great shower. Very helpful concierges.
This isn't the hotel's fault of course, but the old-town location has a few quirks. It is quite hilly, so going home can be a slight hike. Also, the neighborhood is geared toward daytime visitors, so there are not many dinner options extremely close by. Just something to consider.

Gem of a hotel! Although unassuming from the outside, the rooms are big and beautiful and the staff is so welcoming. The property is SO conveniently located, right at the base of the magnificent Yasaka Tower and within walking distance to so many other temples and quaint shops/restaurants. We loved the industrial decor of the hotel and rooms, and the view was simply breathtaking! The bed was the most comfortable we slept on during our entire time in Japan. Guests can also enjoy free access to the hotel's rooftop - we took some of our own snacks and drinks up there to watch the sunset one evening while tourists were paying ÂĄ7,000 for sundowners at the restaurant next door. Cannot recommend this property enough!
Breakfast is a bit scant - a piece of toast with your choice of jam to spread over it. Watch your head when walking into the bathroom if you aren't short ;)

This is a stunning hotel in the heart of Gion. Whoever developed this hotel knows what they are doing and want to provide guests with an exceptional experience. This hotel is very comfortable with generous room sizes (although there could be more space for clothes to be hung/folded). The revamping of an old 50's concrete apartment block and the amazing views of the Shrine are phenomenal. The staff are exceptional, friendly, helpful, aiming to assist with everything!
There is no breakfast provided as part of this accomodation. This is located in the heart of Gion and on a narrow road that is closed to traffic on weekends and public holidays. You will need to drag your luggage through hordes of annoying people.

Beautiful design and lovely staff. Comfortable beds (rare in Japan). Central location and peaceful at night. It feels relaxed and homely. Good value for money. A rare gem of a hotel. Super interesting and not like any other hotel I’ve stayed in Japan.
If you are sensitive to light at night, ask to use the black out curtain for the hallway window. Some light comes through the blinds which is inevitable, given they chose blinds instead of black out curtains (interesting choice).

The hotel is in a great location, high up in Higashiyama and 10 mins walk to Kiyomizu-dera. The rooms are fun with quirky taps, a drop down hanger, and a big lighting controller at the bed head. Spacious for Japan and with a fridge, dehumidifier and aircon. Rooftop is nice at sunset.
Breakfast is a bit meagre. Just toast. Not much space either if several guests come down at sane time. They could make more of the rooftop, e.g. comfy chairs and maybe a bar area with some lighting.

Loved the look of the room, the view, the bed very comfortable, staff were exceptionally friendly and the coffee container beside the hotel wonderful and open early!
Wifi not good - likely due to the concrete of the building and age. Fridge froze our drinks and the couch was really hard to sit on. All first world problems tho and definitely not that important! Not the hotel specifically, but note the location there are very few restaurants open at night in immediate area, need to walk a small amount to find. Again … not a big deal as the restaurants we found were worth the walk!

This hotel is a 1950's apartment block converted to a hotel. The vibe is industrial, with off the form concrete walls, industrial style fixtures, steel doors. We found it really comfortable, even though there is no elevator and we were on the third (top) floor. They have a nice rooftop with a great view of temples and the city (sunset side), but should take advantage of it and have a bar, or at least some sort of set up. The location is wonderful on a, mainly, walking street with shops, restaurants, and several breathtaking temples. The steet goes up the hill for a spectacular view of the city.
As mentioned, a rooftop that was better utilized would be a star attraction, and no elevator might be an obstacle of some.

The room has a rustic feel and is great for backpacking travelers. There is a great view of the Yasada Pagoda from both the room we had and the roof on the 3rd floor. If you wish to visit Kiyomizu-dera Temple in the wee hours of the morning and avoid the crowd, I recommend staying at this hotel as it is a 5-10 minutes walk away from the temple itself, which opens at 6:00 AM.
The hotel location is next to one of the busiest and touristy streets in Kyoto, and as such taxis are unable to stop directly at the hotel. You would have to drag your luggage up the cobblestone pavement to the establishment which can be a hassle with all the tourists around. It is also not very close to any train station and buses discourage passengers from carrying large luggage onboard. The closest train station, Gion-Shijo, is about a 15 minutes walk away. There is no elevator on the premises.
