Wonderful stay in Kyoto. Relatively close to dining, shopping and temples. Would stay again.
Very friendly staff with great communication skill. 10 minutes walk to the Yasaka Pagoda photo spot so its convenient if you want to go early and avoid the crowd.
This was in a pretty decent location walking distance to transport, and walking distance from a few tourist spots you’d want to see. Rooms were a good size, and overall very happy with our stay
This is the perfect location to the Gion District but also easily accessible to other places around Kyoto. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel and its close to Kyoto station. The staff are very kind, friendly and helpful. Its a quiet area as well, so we slept well.
Delightful, friendly small hotel conveniently located with free breakfast and helpful staff. The room and bathroom had all conveniences I needed. I'd return if ever I was in Kyoto again.
Wonderful location close to everything in Gion and about a 3 minute walk to buses to get around the rest of Kyoto. Lovely staff, room had everything you could need for a three night stay. Having complimentary pastries, juice and ice coffee to start the day was a fantastic bonus. Would definitely stay again!
