Located in a quiet residential neighborhood, my son and I found the room tranquil with comfortable beddings and traditional Japanese floor along with modern shower and calming lighting. Staff were friendly and helpful with all our needs. I left a jacket behind which they will help me to ship it back home to the States. I highly recommend this hotel.

A lovely stay, the amenities wrre great especially having the washing machine in the room. We really enjoyed our stay. The buses went from the road outside the hotel and went to the main spots around Kyoto. We really enjoyed this stay.
Justin, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. For most sightseeing we had to take public transportation/ Uber/taxi, but all was easily accessible. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. It was in an easy walking area with lots of local long covered malls filled with lots of Japan goodness.
CHERYL, 7-night trip

Nora, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Just a tiny bit further from the train station than I would have liked (21 weeks pregnant with a toddler, 15-20 minute walk) but we still did tons of sightseeing via train and taxi. We loved the quaint side streets between this hotel and Nishiki market. Bathtub was really high tech, loved it! The apartment was spacious for our family of three and I loved the tatami area.
