Staff was very friendly, amenities were good. Staff was very helpful. The hotel was in a good location. The room was a bit small for our family of 4. We didn’t have much trouble with other hotels in Japan, but this one was a bit cramped. The A/C wasn’t able to be controlled in our room, so it was a bit warm throughout our stay. The room at first glance was clean, but after looking more closely, especially under the bed, it was very dusty and dirty. It didn’t look like it had been vacuumed in a while.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It’s conveniently located just a short walk from Shin Kyoto train station, which is lined with shops and restaurants. The breakfast was bustling with large groups, but the staff handled it with grace and efficiency. The room was spotless, modern, and spacious, which is quite impressive for Japan’s standards. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

Superb and convenient location close to Kyoto Station which has multiple dining options and shopping within the station. The room was neat, clean and while quite small compared to Australian standards, considering it is Japan, it was sufficent space for 2 people. The staff were friendly and despite the language barrier they did their best to help us forward our luggage to our next hotel. Thank you for a memorable and happy stay.

The breakfast was a very traditional Kyoto fare with a few western options. It was nice that there was chicken and veggie tempura. My family esp loved the green tea latte machine. Nice to have dessert options at breakfast too! The only thing is that menu options are exactly the same everyday. The food for non-asian may be a little too authentic.
