Very helpful staff rooms are very clean and there is a nice sitting area in the lobby that serves food and drinks. The neighborhood is full of interesting little restaurants and it is not far from many of the major attractions. The hotel is a great value for the price.

Family friendly but small room

Child friendly with a small tatami area for kids play. Equipped with toys, stuffed toys, games and books for young ones. Good breakfast too. The loft doesn't have an extra bed, but more of a playing/sitting area.

Lovely relaxed and friendly vibe at this compact, well-located hotel. Easy access from Shiju station. Lots of dining options nearby, and good food at the hotel. The free sake tasting and happy hour prices were a bonus. Families with children seemed welcomed and catered for.

Amazing hotel with really good amenities and really friendly staff. Free sake in the lobby for hotel guests too! It's a bit further out from Gion, but it makes up for it being really close to a train station and with really nice little restaurants and cafes in the side streets nearby. For what we paid, I highly recommend staying here.

Friendly place close to Shijo subway. Breakfasts were nice, rooms a little hot and small, would be good if you could open windows. Communal area really hip and food and cocktails were good value. Would recommend
