This hotel is beautiful and so comfortable. The rooms are spacious and the design is great. The beds are wonderful! We went to the spa one afternoon and that was so relaxing. The breakfast is great too and you have a choice of American or Japanese food. It's a 5 min walk to the subway or 15 min walk to the Gion district.

Very nice hotel in Kyoto. Our room was larger than other rooms at Japanese hotels. It is about a 15 minute walk to the nearest subway stations.
