The location cant' be beat. Close walking distance to Takashimaya, Daimaru, Don Quijote, Teramachi & Nishiki Market, Gion, shopping, restaurants & multiple train station/lines. The staff were very helpful on check in and check out, and were readily available whenever we called using the reception phone.
Room 301 was very spacious with a fantastic view and private deck overlooking the Kamo River. The large bathroom with 2 sinks was convenient, not to mention a 2nd powder room near the entry. There was a large walk in closet to place our 2 (open) suitcases and kept it out of the way. Couldn't have done this trip without the in-room washer/dryer (laundry soap provided), just beware, 1 load will take you about 3 to 4 hours. The tatami room/tea room was a nice touch along with the Bose speaker playing jazz upon arrival. The bedroom was nice and quiet allowing for restful sleep in the comfy pajamas provided.
Room 401 was a large studio overlooking the small street below, which really isn't terribly noisy (if you're sensitive to every little sound, earplugs work). This room had 2 twin beds, in-room washer/dryer, micro, refrigerator, etc. It does not have the "wow" features of 301, but it was a nicely appointed and comfortable room.
We had an enjoyable stay at Aoi and would definitely stay in either of these rooms again.
Room 301 - This is a very small thing, it would be great if there was an additional place to hang bath towels. The only place available in the main bathroom was the horizontal handle on the shower door that fit one towel.
Room 401 - Blackout curtains would be nice.

The hotel has a great location, with trendy restaurants and coffee shops right outside the door, and convenient shopping as well. The hotel is elegantly and comfortably decorated, with plenty of space and a view facing the Kamogawa River.
My mom and I booked a twin room, but the single beds are a bit small — I feel like I might fall off when I turn over.

Excellent service, beautiful room. The soaking tub was great. The washer/dryer was super convenient. And complementary champagne, thank you!
On this trip I did not have time for breakfast in my room, so did not use the kitchen but... I love toasting up Japanese bread. A toaster in the room would be great (for a future visit). Thanks!
