Excellent place with convenient public transport connections, terrific staff, great coffee. Really great rooms, awesome bath, and a very slick ground level lounge/drinks area where they make house fragrances. Super impressed with this stay

Absolutely incredible stay. The room was beautiful, the staff was kind and accommodating, the facilities were unreal, and two major sightseeing destinations and a train stop were within walking distance. Highly recommend; we splurged for our honeymoon but are now unlikely to stay anywhere else.

Beautiful hotel and close to the imperial palace. The cafe, roof terrace and hotel lounge were stand outs. Slightly unusual layout with bathroom but worked out well with the family.

Amazing establishment! Very trendy, architectural and beautifully decorated. A great mood overall. We loved the guest lounge, the café and the tatami mats in the room. Everything felt brand new and premium, despite the affordable price. 10/10 would recommend.

A lovely hotel with a cool aesthetic. Super helpful and friendly staff, convenient location, lots of amenities. We actually liked the set up of outside access to washrooms, meant some of us could sleep in peacefully while others got ready!

This hotel is beautiful. The staff were kind, helpful, and so welcoming. The hotel itself is located in a great neighbourhood, we loved exploring. It about a 20 min walk to the shopping arcade, pontocho alley, and the market. The bus stop is about 2 min walk away and the same goes for the subway station. Overall a great hotel.

Nice modern rooms combined with a traditional Japanese style. The bathroom was a good size with a separate area for sink and toilet and a wet room shower/bath. The location was good, just around the corner from Marutamachi underground station, linking to main Kyoto station via the Karasuma line. The hotel is also only a short walk to the Kyoto imperial palace park. Breakfast was nice, I had the western option which was a section of bread rolls, eggs, tea, smoothie and soup. The hotel also has a very pleasant lounge area for guests to sit and relax. Staff were very attentive and polite and rooms were kept very clean and well looked after. I would definitely stay again.

In general, the surrounding area is quiet. Sometimes will hear the noise by the vehicles/ ambulance but it's acceptable. Near the railway station (less than 5minutes). Comfortable Japanese style hotel room with bathtub. Recommend for couples & family to enjoy the Japanese style room.
