Lovely room and excellent staff. Breakfast was very poor. Long wait for tables and western breakfast options were limited and hot food was cold.

This hotel was located in a very nice area, close to shopping, train stations and historical sights. Staff was very friendly. Room was large and spacious, compared to other hotels I stayed at in Japan. The cafe served a delicious breakfast (not included)
