The location is so convenient close to the food market and multiple subway and bus stops. Our double room was on the small side but well laid out to maximise the available space.  …

This easily deserves 4 or 5 stars. I don't think there's anything more that needs to be said. Super. Spacious and clean rooms, great service, good location and a great price/performance ratio.

Our favorite hotel while in Japan. The room was super spacious, with beautiful recessed lighting. Everything was new and looked renovated. Our favorite was the wet room which had a large bath you can relax in at day end (bath salts included) and a spacious shower as well. The staff were friendly and the location is unbeatable, right next to all the restaurants and yet still feels quaint and quiet.

This hotel located at very popular and convenient location in Kyoto. 50 meter walk from pontocho alley and 15 minutes walk from Gion area.Rooms are spacious compared with Japanese standard. Clean and new.Breakfast is nothing special and a little overpriced.Bed and mattress is good and comfy. However had bedbugs just like almost all hotels!!The biggest issue is the noise of young tourists in the street. Starting from 10 pm until even 6 am, none stop. We stayed 5 nights and every single night was the same.Our room was at level 7 and we could barely sleep with the help of ear plugs.Windows was double glazed but looks like noise was passing through the facade.See the video was taken 6:10 am on 9-Oct-2024 from room 704.
