Happy, friendly, very polite and helpful team here. Excellent service getting my luggage transfer sorted and getting us a taxi to Kyoto station. Lovely clean hotel. Excellent in every way and can’t fault.
Helen, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean and modern, with a convenient location. Although there was a window, it was dark. Since most of the day was spent sightseeing in Kyoto and the area though, this wasn’t a problem. Having breakfast provided was also convenient, with a mix of Asian and western options. Careful with late checkout fees.
