A small beautifully decorated room that was close to subway station. Great part of town close to river and a couple popular shrines

Hôtel quiet from the inside but even on the top, 9th floor, could hear street noise : sirens, motor cycles, loud voices, etc. Usually quiet from 12 to 8.

4.0 / 10.0
Would recommend. Only thing was that the breakfast variety was good but there wasn't a lot of variety compared to other hotels we've stayed in. But still a very good selection! Bedroom was lovely and staff super friendly.

We arrived around noon. The hotel stored our luggage till we could check in (after 3 pm). Amenities were in the lobby to pick what one needed. We booked a twin Musse room, without knowledge that it was a premium room, and it was wonderful. Very spacious!! I would definitely stay there again in the same type room.

Located in the middle of Shicho Gion, easily reached by bus from Kyoto station and within walkable distance to major Kyoto sites such as Yasaka Shrine and Sannezeka. Staff are all friendly and eager to help.

EXCELLENT location & price/value! Wonderful daily cleaning service unless you leave magnet for them to skip your room Staff very helpful - call taxi company to retrieve a wallet left in the cab. With their help, the wallet was returned within 1.5 hours! For the fussy, there were several stains on the floor. For me, only negative was poor light fixture placement, so difficult to read in bed.

We had a good stay. Restaurants & stores are closed to the hotel.
4.0 / 10.0
The hotel room is as expected in Japan. Not large but it was comfortable and clean. The bedding was of good quality and the pillows were soft.
The staff at reception doesn’t speak great English and most of the time we had to use translator but they were nice enough.
Very central for markets and the Gion area. I would stay again
4.0 / 10.0
Location was pretty convenient and surrounded by plenty of shops/restaurants. However, the downfall was the noise from the main road.
Size was not over generous but better than a Tokyo. My adult kids shared a twin for slightly more price but worth it for the space.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Good location as it was only 10 mins on the bus but they only allow roll on small suitcases. A taxi is around ¥2,500 for the short distance if you are interested.

Great hotel esp the room design. Front desk tram are polite and the breakfast has a varied selection. The location is what sets this apart, right in the middle of Kawaramachi, cant be beaten.

Only had a really brief overnight stay here - property was clean and nice, breakfast was plentiful and delicious, staff were lovely. Our room faced the main street and it was super loud, definitely grab the earplugs from the amenities offering!

Breakfast options are limited and rooms are very small but overall a good hotel.

Excellent hotel. Safe, clean and very helpful staff. Rooms were small, but well appointed and clean. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was an extra charge, but the food was very good indeed and easy to get your money's worth at the buffet. The hotel is well situated for Nishiki market and lots of great dining options close by.

We loved the property. Would absolutely stay here again. Location was better than imagined — lots of shopping, things to do, and places to eat. We ubered to a few places and was so easy and fast to get one. The room was aesthetically pleasing, clean, looks just like the photos, and amenities were great.
10.0 / 10.0
It’s no wonder this hotel has received many 5 star reviews from other guests. Its location is amazing! The accommodation and breakfast were superb. (The room isn’t the tiny standard you experience across Japan- it’s very spacious with a lot of well thought out extra amenties not seen in other hotels.) it was a bit tricky to get to this hotel from Kyoto station via train- so I took a taxi with my luggage instead which cost 1700Yen during rush hour. It was nice cause it gave me a gauge of where i was going to be staying. It’s walking distance to Gion and lots of beautiful cultural places to see.
To add, I felt very safe traveling and staying at this hotel as a solo female traveler.

We had a really great time the area was awesome and the hotel was nice. It was very comfortable and we definitely would stay again. Our only issue was with the laundry machine the dryer doesn’t work which was very frustrating. Other than that it was great hotel in an awesome area.

Great location. Very nice and clean. Spacious for Japan hotels.
6.0 / 10.0
We booked a twin room with a sofa bed for three people. It’s definitely a too small for three people, no room to even open the suitcases. The hotel is on a busy shopping street. Several of the bus stations near by, but it’s a little far away from the Kyoto station. Breakfast is good, I paid separately. If you think you are going to eat breakfast in the hotel, include it when booking, cheaper than buying separately at the hotel. I believe we were signed a handicap room, which was not I expected. Front desk people are friendly. Not sure will stay there again.

Perfect location to any of the tourist attractions. Literally in the center of the city, walkable to dining areas and bar areas as well as a couple of train stations and bus stops.
The facility was very clean and the staff were very nice and friendly. I’d totally recommend this hotel and will stay here whenever I visit Kyoto.
