"C’était trop bien. L’hôte est vraiment aux petits soins et attentionnée. Elle donne des conseils sur des endroits à visiter. Elle est également soucieuse de la bonne santé de ses hôtes. Elle est gentille et aimable. Si vous un petit moment, faites un tour dans son restaurant !"

"One of our favourite hotels from our 14 night tour. Welcomed our group with a taste of sake. The rooms were spacious, clean and modern. Good facilities for laundry and although I didn't have breakfast in the restaurant, others in our group really enjoyed it. Located close to metro, good dining options and walk to central city."
"Nothing to be worried about if you arrive at the property earlier than a check-in time (5:00pm). There is a storage room for your luggage and you can create your own combination locks. At check-in, Front Desk staff will help you to self check-in using your passport(s) and making your own room key(s). Hotel has free WIFI. We stayed in a room with 4 beds and it was very spacious and clean. 4 beds, 2 sinks, 2 hair dryers, a separate toilet area, bath tub, shower, big closet space, plenty of hangers, mini fridge with complimentary bottles of mineral water, plenty of USB outlets and plugs, a TV with streaming options, and a monitor screen. Room service is every 2 days. The location is walkable to many good restaurants, shopping areas, and sites. Taxi are easy to be located outside the hotel. At check-out you can self check out from the TV in your room and just drop the keys off at the front desk. We would recommend this hotel and would return to stay here again if we visit Kyoto in the future."
