What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Comfortable

I upgraded to a Corner Deluxe Twin room during my recent stay and it was just fantastic! The room offered ample space for all my luggage, which was a blessing during my three-week trip in Japan. The layout, including a workspace and small sofa, provided such comfort that I felt right at home. The cleanliness was perfect and the beds were super comfy.

Modern and Impressive

The bathroom in my room was modern and offered a fantastic shower that truly made my stay special. It was clean and well-appointed, with great toiletries provided. Using the shower was a good experience, making it one of the best showers I had during my entire trip.

Delicious Breakfast Options

While I enjoyed the hotel breakfast, I found some very nice nearby cafes that offered an even better selection for breakfast. However, the breakfast buffet at the hotel offered a nice blend of Japanese and Western dishes, making it worth a try for those who want a taste of local flavors.

Wonderful Amenities

I particularly appreciated the amenities in the room, such as the complimentary water bottles and excellent wifi. The modern vibe and sleek design of the room also added a sense of luxury to my stay. Watching TV with access to BBC World was a pleasant surprise too, offering some familiar entertainment after long days of exploring the city.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, thanks to its excellent location in the heart of Kyoto, surrounded by numerous dining options and close to several transport links. The rooms were comfortable, though a bit lacking in privacy and amenities. While the breakfast spread was diverse and satisfying, the staff's service could have been a little more willing to assist with specific requests. Overall, I found it a great value for money and would definitely consider returning.
