"Overall, it's a great hotel. The location is excellent, the room has convenient amenities like a washing machine, electric kettle, plates, cutlery, and a fridge, perfect for making tea and having some fruit in the evening. While the level of English at the hotel is poor, they have a robot that provides instant translations. What surprised us was that they charged us in advance for all seven nights, which had never happened to us before. The room wasn't cleaned daily, but they changed the towels...

"Loved this hotel. The location is somewhat off the beaten path, but it was quiet, safe, well-appointed and central. Bus and taxi transportation is really easy in Kyoto, so not being as close to a train station wasn't a big deal. We had a very nice stay and would stay again."

5/5 Excellent

"Just across the train station. Lots of restaurants around the area. The train sounds can be heard a bit but it does not bother me. The rooms are spacious (booked 2) for Japan standards. There is an ice machine and water refilling station on our floor (I believe there is one on every floor) Easy check-in and check-out. The staff were very nice. One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in Japan (this is my second visit to the country and have stayed in 3 hotels each time)."

5/5 Excellent

"We stayed in the luxury family room which was massive, we had four beds two at either end of the main room with a lounge, TV and seating area in between. The room has a large bathroom containing two different shower/bath options allowing two people to shower separately at the same time and a separate toilet. The hotel is only a short walk from Kyoto Station which contains many restaurants and food and transport options. I highly recommend this hotel, I would definitely stay here again."
