"Good"

"We absolutely loved this hotel. The room size, cleanliness, and amenities were all exceptional. What truly stood out, however, was the outstanding customer service and warmth of the staff. One of the receptionists made a memorable effort to communicate with us in one of our native languages—a gesture that felt incredibly welcoming and personal. Moments like these transform a good stay into an unforgettable one. While we didn't have breakfast at the property, there's a convenient coffee shop Sizuya-Shichijo nearby offering delicious options for around 800 yen, which worked perfectly for us. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking quality accommodations paired with genuinely thoughtful service."

"This is a great hotel that had a very comfortable bed and the room was very quiet. It is located reasonably close to the busier tourist sites (15-20 minute walk) but provides a place of calm should you wish to escape. The main floor bakery / cafe is excellent (fabulous focaccia) and the restaurant / bar on the rooftop is also fantastic. Other amenities such as the gym (small but decent) and laundry (very easy to use) are nice features. "

"The hotel is very conveniently located within the main train station. Not at all noisy though. It’s clean and comfortable. Staff at check in were very efficient. Check-in and check-out is super quick and easy even though there were morning queues being a convention hotel. Would definitely recommend if staying in Kyoto and want to get around the city. "

"Location is amazing! Right next to Kyoto station. Room is clean and spacious! "

"Great location, steps to Kyoto station. Convenience store is in the same building. Breakfast was good "
