Lovely spacious clean rooms with very comfortable futon beds and a great shower . Great location for the station and day trips . Lovely bonus of free teas , coffees , beers and wine . Nishiki , shopping etc 20 min walk , Gion 40 mins or quick taxi ride .

Loved staying here. Great property, beautiful room, and very very helpful staff. A little inconvenient for wheelchair users needing to get in and out since their main entrance’s ramp is quiet narrow (couldn’t fit my Whill C2 on it even just not driving it, only rolling it down). That’s the only reason I’m not giving it 5/5 completely. Also the wooden tub is so so nice.

Wonderful hotel with nice staff! I loved the lounge with complimentary wine/beer/tea/coffee. however, the pictures led me to believe that they have a spa/sauna/pool area when in fact they only have a small spa for massage appointments which was disappointing.
