Easy access to transport and restaurants. We loved the onsen and sauna. So very clean and soothing after a log of sightseeing. Room was comfortable and had windows. Pyjamas were great for accessing the onsen. Loved all the complimentary toiletries.

Perfectly placed within a few minutes walking distance to Kyoto-Kawaramachi Station, making it an easy commute from Osaka ! Every interaction with the hotel staff and facilities were seamless (the free coffee/matcha latte/soda/ice-cream was a very, very welcome surprise, especially after a long day exploring Kyoto!) The public baths were fantastic, clean and hygienic - the views/setting changes between the men and women everyday so that both baths can be experienced. They even helped us with our luggage and sending it across to Tokyo with minimum fuss, at our convenience. Would definitely stay here again on my next visit!

    Beautiful, well designed room in excelent location, super-kind, English speaking staff, modern approach to room maintenance (you get a sweet award, if you don't ask for making up your room :) at the front desk you can hire a high quality speaker, ac adaptors or even a projector at no charge. 22 pieces is a great experience, highly recommended.

    The location is great, basically across the road from the station, about 5 to 7 minute walk. From there you can get to anywhere in the city quite easily. The hotel is new and much thought has been given to the decor. It is stylish and interesting with a Japanese touch. The rooms have a warm feeling with warm coloured floral carpets and wood features in the furniture. The bed linen was great and the beds extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are modern and the water pressure excellent.

    The hotel is simply wonderful! Our room was simple yet well renovated, stylish, modern and new too. Totally worth the price and location is great too. The hotel is situated on a main road in Kyoto city centre, easy access to most of the places. There is a common spa, sauna and public bath area but we didn't get to use them. Would recommend to those who're traveling to Kyoto!
