I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The room was so comfortable and I slept well and the location close to Kyoto Station was perfect. I also can’t forget about the amazing breakfast, afternoon dessert and sake/beer/wine in the evening. I truly felt like I was staying at a five-star hotel. Highly recommended!

Staff was super courteous. The breakfast buffet in the morning was delicious with large variety. Social /happy hour in the evening and afternoon tea/dessert was also included in our stay, and enjoyed really good Sake tasting every evening! Amenities were excellent from house slippers, PJs, bath salt, hair oil, face masks etc. more than you could ask for! And the hotel itself is beautifully decorated throughout. Highly recommend this stay!!
