This hotel is situated next to the famous Nijo Castle, with several bus stops and subway station just a quick stroll away. Additionally, the nearby ramen restaurant offers a deliciously chewy ramen that is definitely worth sampling.

The price is reasonable for a really convenient location, near the Nijo castle and train station. Beds extremely hard, but the staff so friendly. Breakfast was traditional and good but the same every day so just be aware.

Got the corner window room which was a very lucky thing for me since it seems to be always sold out. While the room is quite small, as to be expected with a lot of hotels in Japan, it is in a very good location next to Nijo Castle and Sanjo Shotengai. Not sure why this hotel charged me more tourist tax than my other stays in Kansai but it wasn't too much. Was also a great location for local bike rental drop off but be noted that the bicycle parking is in back and has no camera. Would like to return here on future trips to Kyoto. Try Gomaya Crepe-Do at the nearby shotengai for made to order sesame crepes. Very delicious!

Spacious, clean and cozy rooms! Hotel also makes you feel safe, close to Nijo-Jo Castle which is a must-to-visit I think. Also there is a bus stop 1 min walk distance from front door. I recommend here. 10-15 mins bus trip to Kyoto Station.

We had to wait a while for someone to be at the check in counter even after pushing the bell. We did arrive an hour before 3 pm and had to leave our luggage’s with them until 3 pm, however we didn’t get our room keys until about 3:15 pm even after already waiting in the lobby. We asked for change of sheets and full service in one of our rooms and they just changed the sheets direction, didn’t change them. The rooms had an off smell. The location is nice, rooftop is nice. They have comics in the lobby, but over all it was just OK. They provide you one tiny pillow and the mattress was very hard and space was very tight. Not complaining about the space since we have traveled throughout Japan and know this is common. My suggestion would be to book closer to Kyoto station since that is the hub of where everything is.

Very friendly staff, walkable to Nijo-jo castle and the imperial Palace. Right next to the city bus stop, and easy to get to from Kyoto station. We didn't stay long enough to use it, but the lending library of manga seemed a nice option, especially on rainy days.

I really appreciate the detailed part of how they manage their rooms. From my personal perspective, I think the hallway carpet might have a bit of an unpleasant smell because it’s probably old or hasn’t been cleaned thoroughly. On the other hand, my room is spotless, especially in terms of cleanliness.

This is a perfect hotel for anyone traveling solo. The staff is kind and courteous and can speak English as well as mandarin/Cantonese. There’s an option to purchase breakfast bento which I highly recommend trying. They were able to accommodate my dietary restrictions as well. Laundry cost roughly 400 yen and no need to buy any detergent. All 3 convenience stores (Lawson, 7/11, and Family Mart) are nearby.
