We had a wonderful stay in two rooms for our family of 5. The rooms were spacious and stylish, and the breakfast was wonderful. We also loved the location - very close to Gion district and lots of delicious restaurants. Central to the various sites we wanted to see during ing our 5 day trip. Both the lunch and dinner were formal, but delicious!!!

The hotel was great, loved the location and all the snacks in the room. We didnt eat at the hotel but did go up to the bar once. The staff served us a drink and then ignored us, it was not busy. can't recommend the top floor dining space but otherwise liked the hotel.
