"The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The front desk staff went out of their way to help us set up baggage transfer and always greeted us with a friendly smile. The hotel was very clean. There was a Family Mart around the corner which was very convenient. I would highly recommend this hotel to any travelers."
"The room was so spacious and clean. The staff was extremely kind and friendly, which made my stay that much more enjoyable. They took time to talk with us and give us a few recommendations for sightseeing, shopping, and dining. When I come back to Kyoto, I will make sure to stay here every single time. "
"Our favorite thing about the hotel was its serenity and the sense of peace you felt when you walked in. We also really enjoyed the Japanese breakfast, it gave us a different, unique perspective. The free drinks and snacks during the lounge hours were refreshing. Unfortunately, access is limited, and there is a lack of common space when trying to eat non-hotel food. Finally, there is also not very much surrounding the hotel on foot, but one can still use a taxi to get to Kyoto Station or other...
"This is so far THE BEST hotel stay for me of all my visits to Japan for more than 5 times!
The room is incredibly spacious and extremely clean. Each bed has TWO LARGE pillows, not the lousy tiny pillows you see at other hotels, one SOFT and one FIRM pillow.
There is an an exercise room on the 3rd floor, as where you can get ice and microwave your food, as well as a vending machine. I have to admit there is only ONE microwave for the entire hotel, but really, why would you want to eat...
"The best service I've ever experienced in a hotel. Staff were incredible, friendly and spoke very good English. The breakfast was exceptional, well worth the price, and the onsen was clean and had a good view. Rooms were tidy and in good condition. There's also a coin operated washing machine and dryer on site which came in useful. Would highly recommend, and would gladly return in the future."
"Not your typical Japan micro hotel rooms, they were spacious similar to American hotels. Distance from Kyoto train station a little farther than expected….a full 10 min walk for sure…not easy with luggage."
