Very modern and clean, quiet, safe and reasonably priced. But the outstanding feature is being right in the heart of Gion, both to the North and South areas, plus on the river just across from Ponchoto alley.

First, the staff was phenomenal. We stayed six nights and they could not have been more helpful! The hotel has a lovely boutique feel in a big city, and is centrally located. A wonderful place to come back to after busy sightseeing days. I would definitely recommend this hotel to adults visiting Kyoto. I’m not sure it’s great for families but it was perfect for us as a couple.

This property was is such a good location. Right across from the river. There is a beautiful walking path along the river that you can take to get to any of the main streets of Kyoto. The hotel staff was so friendly & accommodating. I appreciated that this was a quieter part of Kyoto but, walking distance to any popular destination & amazing food spots! Would definitely recommend!
