It’s great but the room had a very funny musty smell. The onsen is open only till 11, which is unusual. Better places around, like the one next door with an onsen that is open all night long, and a very Japanese feel.

Brilliant hotel with a lovely onsen upstairs. There was good access to the station, a convenience store nearby. The rooms were very spacious and the bath/shower room was very helpful after a long day on exploring. Friendly staff.

Relaxing and secure place

We didn’t take breakfast but used the laundry which was ok but dryers took a long time. The iron and ironing board was somewhat difficult a full size ironing board would be better. The staff were excellent in appearance and manner. Room was very clean but two pillows per person would be bette. Staff happily provided extra pillows on request. Would definitely recommend this hotel when visiting Kyoto.

Great location (so close to Kyoto station), beautiful hotel with spacious accommodations, especially for Japan standards. Staff was great and extremely helpful. Just make sure if you decide to do laundry there make sure you buy enough detergent and when you dry make sure you do it for two cycles for regular loads. It does get busy in the laundry room. If you’re jet lagged best to do it in the middle of the night to beat the crowds 👌 but other than that, this has been my fav stay of my Japan trip (out of 3 hotels)
