- Comfortable design - Large rooms - Free coffee / tea

- Staff did not speak english and required translation tablet - When we checked out early morning, there was no staff at the front desk - No breakfast available

I would stay here again. It deserves the exceptional rating. - very close to gojo station. - very close to an excellent mom and pop restaurant right around the corner in the alley to the right (Warakumiishimaru). I ate there every night to avoid the Kyoto crowds and the food was excellent. - laundry facilities on site - modern, big and clean rooms. - large bed - good or excellent lighting. - designer sink - coffee machine in lobby - nice roomy desk - AC with remote control

- as a Westerner, I found the shower bath arrangement very awkward for me and uncomfortable. Although it is clean and modern.

Overall this place is a nice hotel to come back to after a long day. I don't know how long its been around, but it felt very clean and new. The staff were really nice and helpful, and even gave me a little gift when I left. The room was spacious, clean, and just generally felt new. The bathroom was clean and had tons of room as well. They were nice enough to even upgrade my room which was a pleasant surprise.

Honestly there wasn't really anything I didn't like. The only things I could think of is that the beds are a little firm and the room window is frosted so you cant really see outside. Maybe its the soft westerner in me expecting to sink into a cloud. But honestly the beds were just fine, just a little firmer than what I was expecting. Then I was out exploring Kyoto most of the day so not being able to look out my window wasn't really an issue either.

This hotel easily gave me the best experience in Kyoto, coming from a first-timer here. Good location, clean rooms, great facilities, friendly staff. The hotel felt very new (think it just reopened in 2023), and is located not far away from Gojo station, and there's even a 7-Eleven store nearby. The staff was very welcoming & proactive, and even gave us some souvenirs at the end of our stay. The room we stayed at was tatami-inspired and had a "MUJI-style" feel to it. It was also spacious & comfortable enough. For the washroom, the shower area & toilet seat were separated, which is great.

Nothing I could think of

It was easy to get to the hotel from Kyoto station via subway as well as to central areas via subway or bus. The hotel is tucked into a smaller street, and very close to a 7-eleven. The 2 receptionists were incredibly friendly and helpful. Despite the limited English/Japanese, we were able to communicate effectively via Google translate. There were amenities available in the lobby as well as coffee and vending machine for beverages. The room was spacious and had tatami floors. I loved the shower and tub in the bathroom. The receptionist was able to help me book the airport bus from Kyoto station to Kansai airport the day before my flight, and I was able to leave my bags after checking out to pick-up later.

Wonderful japanese interior (as japanese as possible for a hotel). Amazing bathroom with the typical shower „on a small stool“ option next to a bath tub. Very comfy bed. Large room, really well made with nice light fixtures. O.K. you can tell I felt very comfortable there :) Friendly staff, google translate used if needed. No breakfast included, but a coffee machine for free in the lobby. Good location next to a subway and buses but honestly you can walk everywhere. Many cafes etc nearby. 10‘ to the main station or via Subway. I actually extended my stay. So far my nicest hotel in Japan. Everything was as presented on the booking page.

All good.

Very clean , modern and comfortable and quiet despite its proximity to a major thoroughfare . Very nice staff. We were upgraded to a larger room as it was my husband’s birthday and this was very appreciated .

There is no lounge , bar or restaurant so basically it’s just a bedroom and bathroom . . This was fine for us as we were only in the hotel to sleep . If you want to hang around in a hotel with atmosphere then it’s not the place for you . Nowhere to hang up clothes to dry or even to hang up a wet towel . How about some clothes pegs / hooks ?

Beautiful Japanese-style décor and bathroom, very clean, staff very welcoming, well-positioned for public transport and convenience stores, had laundry facilities if needed.

Not much. For one person the room size was fine but for two, my room would be a bit tight and there was no chair or couch, so you sit only on the low beds. Price was high compared to other similar places but I think that was in part because I had to book near my visit time when my original booking was cancelled because of renovations.

I have no words about this place, it offered the most comfortable and high quality accommodation during our trip to Japan! The attention to detail on how everything is arranged in this property to provide everything you need is beyond any expectations. The rooms are super cozy for resting and they come with all kinds of cool amenities including a bathtub, a super silent water boiler, a laundry box, a small fridge, a small sofa, an A/C and many more. You also get clean pyjamas, free tea, coffee, face masks, toothbrush, bottles of water and even a small gift upon check out! The property is either recently built or recently renovated and everything is shining new. The rooms are cleaned on a daily basis and at the same time you also get clean towels. The staff are super polite as well and will help you with whatever you need with a big smile. You have to stay here to experience what I am trying to convey through a small review! Japanese quality in all its glory!

Everything felt clean. The bathroom is small but has everything. The staff was kind enough to upgrade my room. The place was quiet compared to the center of the town. The balcony was great. I watched the moon every night.

The pillow was a bit too soft to sleep with. I would appreciate it more if the staff can speak more fluent English and if the public area can provide more seating/resting area. Also, if the hotel can change the room key to a card instead of an actual key, that would be more convenient for the guests.
