Great little hotel. Very quiet and calm. Great showers. Lots of pastries and drinks, which solved the problem of breakfast, especially for us, as we woke up at 5 am most days. (We noticed that some guests filled up bags of croissants after checking out, which was really sad to see, as they just emptied out the box of pastries into a plastic bag and left other guests nothing.) there is a 7/11 and a metro line right next to it. And some nice restaurants around too.

I loved this small hotel! It was clean and conveniently located. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The pastries and drinks were certainly appreciated after getting back to the hotel from a long day of exploring. The room was small but had enough room to lay out our 2 carry-on suitcases. The bath area was fabulous. Highly recommended!!!

Fantastic venue with a great vibe and well furnished/kitted social space. The free tea, coffee and pastries (and breads) were above our expectations and helped to set us up well for our days out in the city. The range of board games and books was also a pleasant surprise. The staff were helpful and polite from our arrival and were always willing to help. The room had a good range of amenities and very enjoyable shower. We did find the space in the room a little limited and the pillows were too hard for our personal liking. These are minor niggles and overall had a great time at this hotel.

This hotel is GREAT. It was by far the best hotel of our entire Japan trip, and we stayed at other very good hotels. The room is spacious, clean, and has a fantastic shower. All amenities you could need are available. The lobby area was so nice to hang out in during times that we needed to rest our feet from the 30,000 step days.

The rooms were fairly large (for Kyoto) with the subway close to hand. Hotel was clean and looked good and the staff were very polite and helpful. The free breads and pastries was a good idea, but with a 7/11 literally on the corner we didn't make much use of them. Subway is about five minutes walk away and while there weren't a large number of restaurants (that we found) nearby, what we did find were good. A good hotel well situated. I'd definitely go there again.

This was our favorite hotel during our trip to Japan. It was very comfortable :) The room had more than enough space for luggage and to sit in addition to very comfortable beds and nice touches like pajamas to wear at night. The shower/bath area was delightful. The common area was a nice place to relax and enjoy games and music. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Very nice place to stay.

Easy access to station. Very modern facilities and the pastries were wonderful. Staff were very friendly. Only downside was that it only had one washing machine but Clean Hands laundromat was close by and for 1000 yen our washing was done and dried in 50 minutes.

I was so impressed with this hotel. Best shower I’ve had in my life. The room was small but had absolutely everything you need, excellent amenities, separate toilet room with additional sink, plus tub and shower were a separate room that you could lock the door and get super steamy while someone else used the sink and counter space. Having that type of space to get ready was refreshing!
