This hotel is truly awesome! The staff is extremely kind and the rooms are wonderful. Everything we needed was pretty close walking distance from the hotel, such as shopping, transport, and Nijo Castle was just down the street. Everything about this hotel was fantastic! If you are staying in the area I highly recommend staying here!

Hotel was in a good location, walkable to train stations and shopping. I would recommend getting a room on the opposite to the road as the windows were thin and the traffic was loud.

The hotel was overall great for the size and the price; however, the only downside I have was the extra firm mattress and firm pillow. Unfortunately, it was too hard on my back and joints that I did not sleep at all.

Its a lovely hotel. The gym is adequate (costs 550yen to use) and the facilities are clean. Only downside is that it is not central so you have to take transport to get into the main areas of Kyoto.
