    dining disappointment

    The stay was a highlight of our trip to Kyoto. We enjoyed the spacious rooms that provided a relaxing retreat after exploring local sights like Yasaka Shrine, just a short walk away. The Japanese breakfast was a bit of a letdown, especially since there were no vegetarian options, but the complimentary coffee and croissants in the morning were a pleasant surprise. Overall, the peaceful atmosphere made returning to this place after a day of sightseeing feel so inviting.

    I woudl have expected some complimentary perks for all the inconvenience, but I guess that’s too much to ask for. I almost wanted to give a good review, but I just couldn't!

    musty room

    The welcoming staff created a wonderful experience, even offering a cute keepsake gift upon departure.

    The room felt musty and wasn't cleaned daily, and upon inspection, we found dirt on bathroom surfaces.

    spacious room

    Family with children great experience

    The room was spacious enough for three of us and our big suitcases! The complimentary matcha tea and sweets in the room made us feel right at home.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but I found it acceptable.

    Comfortable room, attentive staff, with convenient amenities including a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and a beautiful bath that enhanced our relaxing experience after a day of exploration.

    Unfortunately, we could not enjoy a meal at the hotel because we booked too late for dinner options, which was disappointing.

    Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

    The spacious room offered a relaxing retreat after our Kyoto adventures. However, lack of dining options was disappointing. I recommend confirming meal preferences in advance. The onsen provided a nice touch but could use upgrades. Overall, a decent stay with nice staff, but expect basic amenities.

    Perfect choice for a stopover in Kyoto with good value. The staff showed amazing warmth and were genuinely helpful. Make sure to ask for local dining recommendations outside as the hotel has limited food options.

    fantastic location
    accommodating staff
    fragrant bathtub
    limited dining options

    The location was fantastic, just a 15-minute walk to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The staff were extremely accommodating, and my kids loved the fragrant wood bathtub in our clean and cozy room. The daily kaiseki meals were a culinary delight.

    For dads, it would be great if the hotel provided kid-friendly dining options.
