The hotel is only 3 minutes walk from Kyoto station making it an ideal hub for exploring the areas around Kyoto and Osaka. We visited Hiroshima whilst there, just under 2 hours travelling on Shinkansen. …

Exceptionally quiet hotel 5 mins from Kyoto station.The in-room washing machine is the real luxury.The room was a touch on the small side, with the toilet and bathroom sink in particular very cramped.A little tip: Use Kujo station exit one if using the Karasuma subway line. It is the same distance but far simpler than using the confusing Kyoto station.

A very nice hotel! The room was spacious, and since we stayed for nine days, we really appreciated that the room came with a washing machine. The staff is very friendly and helpful! I would book this hotel the next time I come to Kyoto.

Really great and quiet hotel. I was surprised. The highlight was the washer-dryer in the room. Super hidden. It's not far to the train station
