The staff were friendly and helpful of any questions/requests that I had. The property is a short walk from subway and very close to the Yasaka Shrine/Gion and Pontocho areas. Large and pretty room made stay very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Great location

Great location with Maruyama Par just across the road and walking distance to most places. The hotel provided a free breakfast that was a pleasant surprise. There was a problem with my booking and the lady on reception took a lot of effort to sort it out for me.

観光地に近いのは良かった。けど入り口の案内が分かりにくい。受付のスタッフの笑顔がなく、残念。部屋は値段もあり、狭く小さくてもソファがあると良かった。お風呂も綺麗だが狭かった。

Mycket bra!

Trevlig personal, bra område, stort rum, badrum var lite väl litet. Trevlig frukost som överträffar förväntningarna.
