Good location right off train stop and lots of kids fun within 2 minute walk. Off the beaten path a bit from all the crazy Kyoto tourist spots and the much busier main train station. Train museum my 5 year old loved!

Wonderful location right near a park and Kyoto Aquarium and a family mart right below. Our favorite hotel out of the major cities so far! Had a Starbucks right outside and was right outside of the train station. Staff were very nice and spoke great English when we needed it. Only thing we could think of as a negative was the location was far from big touristy spots like Gion or Nishiki market, but bus transportation is close by.

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in kyoto. Quiet, fresh and clean, very comfortable, super convenient (across from bus and train station) and lovely surroundings (didn’t feel like a concrete jungle). Starbucks and convenience store right beside us. Of all the places we visited in Kyoto during our tours we continually agreed that this hotel made for the best home base. Breakfast buffet was wonderful!
