Fantastic hotel! The location is excellent, the team is incredibly caring and welcoming, and the rooms are very comfortable. One thing I would definitely recommend is having dinner at the hotel’s restaurant—the chef is simply outstanding, and the food is an experience in itself!
This is truly a hotel I would recommend to anyone visiting Kyoto. If I have the chance to return, I would definitely stay here again.
If anything, I would say to improve a bit the breakfast for more kids friendly. But it was really fine.

Very good hotel and very typical. We loved the room and the purist design.
The breakfast was a bit limited and not refilled enough.

This was by far the priciest hotel we stayed at during our 3 week trip to Japan so we had really high expectations with this being our 4th location. unfortunately, it was the most disappointing. The building looked nice from the outside, it’s on a main road. But somehow it felt like it was in the middle of nowhere as the immediate surroundings are not very buzzy. In reality, you’re only 10-15 min walk from more interesting parts of Kyoto - cafes and restaurants, shops are a bit further as well as the old town. The entrance is impressive with a huge reception area and the staff are very welcoming. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable, you get lovely face products too.
The lounge area was usually empty and the wooden chairs made it feel more like a cafe or casual lunch place. Only two small (not very comfy) sofas and a shop. There’s no bar but you can self-serve decent coffee, tea, juice as well as bottled beer, wine and sake. There is nothing else interesting about the place just a spa at the back which you don’t see if you don’t book a treatment, and the restaurants are in the basement so you don’t see them unless you book. The whole place had no vibe, felt a bit cold, like everyone is just in transit through the lobby. We had one large room for 4 people which looked like a dorm - with 2 beds on the floor there is not much space to sit or move around. Also we had to ask for one of the largest wardrobes to be unlocked because the space is reserved for futons only. The bathroom is beautiful and large but oddly the double basin was placed outside, in the main room. There are only 2 clothes hooks.
My 17-year old son said it’s a lovely hotel but it like it was designed by someone who never designed a hotel before.
