Great location to stay for Kyoto. Multiple options for food close by. Walkable to area attractions and minutes away from the Sanjo Station to take public transit to attractions further away. Staff is friendly and the rooms are comfortable.

The price was autumn color leaves season price so it was higher price but the season is delayed this year. I missed autumn color leaves. I felt the price was too expensive because of it. It should be excellent as regular price.

Love the early 20th century style and low key vibe of this hotel! Everything we wanted to see was close by. Popular shopping, eating and drinking areas were within a 5-10 minute walk, but the noise did not follow us back to the hotel. Proximity to the canal was a wonderful amenity.

Fabulous position, easy to see sites of Kyoto. It is very noisy at night, it’s on a laneway with lots of bars and windows aren’t sound proof.

I was very impressed with not only the hotel staff who were extremely helpful but the hotel itself. It was very clean & my room was pretty spacious for Japanese hotels and very comfortable. Pretty large bathroom & a great shower. Most importantly it was extremely convenient to all the great shopping, Nishi Market, great restaurants & the Gion area. I highly recommend this hotel.

A great choice in Kyoto
Super friendly and helpful staff. Great location for public transport, shopping and nightlife. The breakfast buffet was great, the hotel bar was a quiet refuge from the busier bars in the area. Their unlimited wine for an hour for 1000 yen was hard to refuse.
