A vey good option in Kyoto
This hotel was perfect for our needs and our trip of 3 days. 3 double beds for 4 people. Room was big, comfortable, impecable clean and well equiped.
Easy access on a quiet street but with food options around. The staff was welcoming and always nice, they provided free bottles of water and clean the room while we were there even tough they have a eco cleaning days system. I defitenely recommend this hotel if you stop in Kyoto.

The hotel is in a great location with some really good cafes and bakeries. Very modern and clean with japanese style. We were a familyof 4 and one of the beds was a pullout and it wasn’t very comfortable. Other than that no complaints.
A nice little oasis in Kyoto. Rooms were clean, spacious with good amenities. An all around lovely stay.
