So glad we booked this hotel. Location was perfect. Not far from train and bus stations and easy to take cab. Plenty of food choice and great options nearby. The hotel offers daily cleaning as well, which is rare for Japan. Even our Japanese friends came to join us and stayed at the same hotel were impressed. Service was excellent and no issue in communication. We had our luggage sent via agent and it reached before us. The hotel staff nicely put it before we arrived and gave us an early check in. Highly recommended the hotel.

Kyoto overlooking the river

We had a very nice three night visit. We enjoyed the breakfast ( and very much appreciated the extra mile in delivering one for 6:00 am the day we had an early start). The location is wonderful, our room had a river view and when we stepped out the hotel right into Gion and its wonderful ambiance.

The location was golden! Walkable to many touristic sites, very lively area next to the nice river walk which had many blooming cherry blossoms. Rooms were traditional with many modern features.
Carmen, 2-night trip

Close to everything but quiet

The location in the less hectic Gion area was perfect. The staff was incredibly kind and the room was huge and thoughtfully appointed. It felt like a splurge but was actually a good value. I highly recommend this small hotel.

This property was is such a good location. Right across from the river. There is a beautiful walking path along the river that you can take to get to any of the main streets of Kyoto. The hotel staff was so friendly & accommodating. I appreciated that this was a quieter part of Kyoto but, walking distance to any popular destination & amazing food spots! Would definitely recommend!
