This hotel is clean, had good comfy bed, good shower and good staff. The best thing is that it is only 5 mins walk from Kyoto Station which was very convenient; since the Station itself had many restaurants, stores, and even a dept. store (Isetan). I feel it is the perfect location to get around Kyoto.

Nice hotel minutes from the Kyoto station. The hotel is modern with good sized rooms and we loved the low height beds. Breakfast was wonderful and there are a lot of dining options in the nearby area. We liked that all amenities (tea, coffee refills, toiletries etc) are kept for self replenishment in the lobby area. Housekeeping was punctual and well done. Highly recommend this place.
