Umekoji Potel KYOTO

There were free drinks, snacks, a coffee room where you could grind your own beans to make coffee, a public bath and some more that we did not have a chance to try. Even the standard rooms were spacious and very functional. We did not try the breakfast, but the way it was structured, I would recommend."
