Wonderful hotel with spacious room and very friendly staff. However, the bed is on the firm side for me as it seems typical of most japanese hotels in my limited experience. Other than that, would definitely recommend.

First time in Kyoto, 3rd time in Japan. Hotel location was excellent. Easily walkable to Teramachi with eating and shopping options nearby. Easily accessible by taxi to many sites. A 15 minute taxi ride from Kyoto station. Super quiet location. The staff were exceptional. They were very kind and super helpful for everything, including bringing the bags to our room, extra blankets and water, laundry, and calling for taxis. They also let us know about an annual Kyoto festival parade happening during our stay, so we were able to attend that also which was nice. The hotel has a small, quaint feel. We stayed in the smallest room with 2 twin beds due to booking only 4 weeks in advance and every other room type was taken. The only real downside to this hotel are the beds. I like a medium firm to firm bed myself and can also tolerate something a bit softer, but these beds were some of the hardest I've ever slept on and were very uncomfortable. If this hotel would soften up their mattresses a bit, I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone. Staff were amazing - I had to say that again:)

New and clean property. Imperial palace and market place are walkable, along with a lot restaurants. Hotel had a Zen traditional vibe to it. Free tea room and laundry room. Would highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience staying here. 5 mins walk from the large market and very touristy area, and close to konbinis. The room was so cozy and clean, the staff was very professional. One thing we were troubled with was other travelers. One group had occupied the laundry room for the night and had not considered to share with other travelers. The hotel tried to accommodate by offering the people waiting to wait on line but could not do much. Wish those travelers have considered to follow the local rules and basic Japanese values on sharing and being polite.

The rooms are pretty big compared to typical Japanese hotels. Staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Had traveled with a group of 10 people and they were able to help us transport our luggages to the next hotel. Staff spoke English

The staff were amazing and very accommodating

Very comfortable hotel with attention to detail in a sweet and quiet part of town (but still convenient to walk most places!).

Lovely property for the price. Also, free washing machines to do your laundry!

What a wonderful hotel! Great staff, beautiful rooms, excellent laundry amenities and great location are the reason as to why you should stay here. First rate service.

Quite a walk from public transport but manageable. Very helpful and hospitable reservations staff that assisted with local knowledge and provided an excellent breakfast everyday of our stay.

Loved everything about our stay. Not much else to add aside from that I’d highly recommend it to anyone headed to Kyoto

Veey clean and comfortable rooms. Helpful friendly staff. Good location to main area of Kyoto.

It was like it was brand new, Absolutely loved staying here it was a great spot and easy to walk to main tourist areas.

This property was beautiful! It's a small location with maybe 4 rooms per floor, the staff was very nice and greeted us every time. There was a nice hand written note in our room welcoming us when we arrived. We loved our room. Will definitely stay here again if we visit Kyoto in the future.

Loved the Japanese style room. Property was near a lot of places. Staff was very nice.

Excellent place, excellent location. 10/10

The hotel is located near all important sightseeing destinations. You can walk 10-20 minutes to see Kiyomizudera and Yasaka etc. Adding to that, YUMI san went above and beyond helping me out getting a taxi and talking to the driver that make sure I’ll get to my host family house with a correct address. It was an amazing experience with this hotel. Highly recommended!!!
