This little hotel is excellent. It has everything... - perfect location, so you can walk to the main streets easily and have a lot of food options around; - nice staff (although they don't speak much English, like anywhere in Japan, so you should use Google translate) - room interior is very nice, they even put rice windows from the inside, which helps with isolation plus it looks great. The only thing to improve here is that they could put a big mirror on one of the walls (so you can see your whole reflection, and it would visually enlarge the room) - amenities are great in general! they have coffee and pillow menu to choose from, at display on the reception - they have clever safe deposit box system at the reception, where you put your own codes - breakfast is small but very nice and they change it every morning. It is just pastries and coffee/tea, like you would get in a mini-market

The beds were super comfortable, room was generous size, and the area is very quiet. The coffee in the room is excellent. The hotel staff is never especially happy to see you. Perhaps this has to do with the incredible volume of tourists Kyoto has been overwhelmed by in recent years.

I had an amazing experience staying here. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. They even put your luggage in your room for you if you leave your luggage with them early! They also offer to call restaurants for reservations since that's a big problem for travellers in Japan. The hotel itself is a bit far from Kyoto station, but close to another station (which have less lines). It's also EXTREMELY close to many temples, you can probable spend a week just checking out the Gion area.

The hotel has a very traditional Japanese style, the room was slightly larger than the average, 10-min walk to the closest subway station and ladt but not least, in the heart of Kyoto’s Gion district.

The staff was super friendly and they had some very good recommendations for food around the area. The hotel is located 10 min walk from many bars and restaurants and from tourist attractions. The hotel was clean and amenities were good in general. While there were no safes in the room they did have some in the lobby easy to access and right in front of the front desk. Only bad thing was the breakfast offered. The bread was stale and it looked as if it had been there for a week, other than the bread there was nothing and juice was offered in juice boxes.
