Breakfast was really good! There’s western food too!

Room was a bit too small. For one person ok, but considering it was a double, I would have imagined a bit bigger.

Big breakfast, although not very european style Friendly staff Good location

There were a few very minor things I didn’t like about the hotel: my hotel room was directly facing an office building and the workers were often there until up to 8pm or 9pm working. I had to leave the blackout curtain open because I struggle to wake up when they are closed, so I only had the thin little curtain and I could see them and they more than likely could see me at any time of day I was in the room between 8am-9pm, there was also no closet space and instead just a little wall rack with some coat hangers - I didn’t really need a closet so this was fine for me but if you need one, that may be an issue. The washing machines/dryers are located on the first floor past reception, it felt a little bit embarrassing walking past the hotel staff with my arms full of washing. Lastly, the hotel can be a little difficult to find seeing as it’s in an alleyway off of the main road and if you’re like me, you’re going to struggle to type the entire hotel name as it is quite long in to google maps and there’s another one under the same hotel group close by, so it is very easy to get lost or end up at the wrong hotel. These are all very minor things that didn’t affect my enjoyment of my stay, however they are things that I think everyone booking should know :)

This hotel way exceeded my expectations given the cost. The staff were absolutely lovely and did their best to speak English. Considering how terrible my Japanese is, I really appreciated their efforts. I was also so grateful for the baggage shipping service, I only had to pay roughly $27-$30AUD to have my suitcase transported from the hotel to my next hotel all the way back in Tokyo, it arrived two days after (it would have arrived the next day if I had organised it earlier in the day but I forgot until about 5pm so that’s my own fault 😰). The hotel is nice and close by to the main road area that has lots of different conbinis and restaurants and a station entrance not to far away as well. Having access to a washing machine/dryer was so useful as someone who tried to pack light and have lots of room to bring back souvenirs, especially since they automatically dispense detergent so you don’t have to worry about purchasing any. There is also a vending machine in the hotel which is super useful and another one directly across the road where you can stock up on water before a day trip. There were also free umbrellas in the entrance way and a station to wrap them up so they don’t drip, a self check in/check out station, a shelf of ammenities like bath salts, toothbrushes etc and a little station of power banks. The aesthetic of the exterior of the hotel was really neat too, especially the front doors. It was a great experience and I only paid $381AUD for two nights.

Breakfast was OK. If I came a bit later in the morning, I found cold food mostly.

Very comfortable stay. Great location.

- I requested a room where the window can be opened. Unfortunately the traffic noice was so disturbing, it kept me up all night, even with the window closed.

- very welcoming and helpful staff - room was clean - 2 bottles of drinking water daily - good wifi reception - breakfast buffet was excellent, huge variety of food, even for people on gluten free diet - centrally located - train station only 2 min on foot

Great staff and the room was very quiet and has a black out curtains. The location is great for going around Kyoto and is with in walking distance of a lot of things like the imperial palace or the food market

The hotel should consider offering some international TV channels in addition to the Japanese ones.

A nice and quiet hotel, conveniently close to the metro station (just around the corner) and within a 10-15 minute walking distance to the bars and restaurants in the Kamo river area. The hotel staff is very professional and kind. They offer an excellent Japanese breakfast and provide complimentary coffee and tea 24/7.

I ♡ the bathroom! I could have relaxed at big bathtub! The room was comfortable.

We were told the breakfast is served until 10am. When we went to the restaurant at 9:40am, the staff told us "we close at 10am and you have only what's left." I wish they're a bit relaxed about the time, as the checkout is 11am and tourists from overseas like us are struggling with jet lag. We love the variety of food, though!

Perfect location, only a minute from Karasuma Oike Station, close to 'Kyoto Gear' and other activities we planned. The staff were nice and the room was super clean and modern with a touch of Japanese taste. We chose this hotel coz the check out was 11am and we want a big breakfast:)

The blanket was a bit thicker, so good for winter but a bit warm for summer or autumn unless turning air-conditioning on while sleeping

Roomy space in context of hotels in Japan Hotel staff are polite and helpful Breakfast buffet is value for money

Everything was perfect, we got the queen room which was assorted with a massage chair!

I was expecting a foot massage machine in the room but that won’t decrease my satisfaction of this hotel.

Receptions are really nice. The room is big, the bed is comfortable and the bath tub is so clean that I had bath every night. And the breakfast is excellent. Every detail is perfect in this hotel. I would love to come back when I visit Kyoto.
