to get started.

Joel

United States of America

The hotel was wonderful and great location. I only scored a bit low as the rug in the room really needs to be cleaned. Everything else was great.

Ferris2020

United States of America

The staff, the food and location. The room is well maintained. spacious.

Joselito

United States of America

Terrific location, easy to use hotel shuttle (which staff ensures those waiting in waiting room aren't cut by those who walk up outside), easy walk to station. Great pool, which is pretty rare in Japanese hotels. Dedicated, highly professional staff worthy of a 5 star hotel.

Andrea

United States of America

Everything: Very clean, great location & shuttle for when you have luggage, elegant feel to lobby, nice rooms & pool. Best part: staff is very professional & courteous. We had a problem with neighbors who were smoking(!!) in their room & as soon as we called, someone from the front desk came up ready to move us to another room for the night. They ended up upgrading us to an amazing room for the remainder of our stay by way of apology for something that wasn't remotely their fault and were very apologetic about the entire incident.

Tampopo

United States of America

Very new and clean. it's a bit far from the Kyoto station so you need to use the shuttle bus which is free of charge.

Rajan

Hong Kong

I liked the staff they were so helpful and accommodating. The location and shuttle service was excellent. The bed a little too firm but otherwise the room was awesome. The hotel could use a more casual restaurant but getting to the station to eat was easy! Would definitely stay again! Best hotel I stayed so far in Japan!

Deborah

United States of America

Amazing staff quick to help out with any issues. Like the need of extra expresso capsules in the room!

Christina

United States of America

10 minutes walk from Kyoto station and has hotel shuttle. Good size room.
