Spacious and Comfortable

I stayed in the Comfort Queen Room with Bath and loved the spacious layout. The tatami flooring adds a traditional touch, and the bathroom was beautifully designed. It truly felt like a perfect blend of modern and traditional aesthetics.

Utterly Cozy Beds

The bed in my room was incredibly comfortable. It was perfectly soft yet supportive, ensuring I had a restful night's sleep after exploring the city. I loved curling up with the nice duvet.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with clean and comfortable accommodations and a convenient location right at a crossroads near downtown Kyoto. The staff were incredibly helpful, but I found the dining options, especially breakfast, to be somewhat lacking. The price was fair overall, but it's a shame that Wi-Fi came with an additional charge.

This hotel has a convenient location, right at a crossroads and very close to central Kyoto, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms are clean and comfortable but could use a bit of updating. The service was attentive and friendly, which made my stay enjoyable. However, the breakfast offerings were quite minimal, which was a letdown given how important breakfast is for starting the day right. Overall, it's a good option considering the value for money, but there's room for improvement.
