The onsen was clean, they provided a lovely welcome drink, free snacks, and a great gym. Decent location. Thanks for the stay and will be back!, by Katherine, December 25, 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: Loved our stay here, it’s only a 5-10 min walk from Kyoto Station. Room was a great size and staff were super helpful and nice. Only downside was there were only 5 or 6 laundry machines for the entire building which made it very difficult to find one available. There is a coin laundry down the roads but we ended up just staying up until one was free at midnight. I would stay here again and recommend it!, by Amanda, November 11, 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
Review: Train station was 5minutes walk from the hotel. Though the room was on the smaller side, it was very fancy and had all the amenities and was well kept. The staff was very nice and helpful as well. They called us a taxi when we needed to get our luggage to the airport and walk us down and waited in the cold with us for the taxi to arrive. Great service!, by Ono, January 20, 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: This hotel is fabulous. The rooms are stylish and the location could not be better. It is right next to a subway station and an easy trip from Kyoto station. The breakfast is tasty with many choices. The rooms are a little on the small side for Americans...we are from New York City so pretty typical for NYC standards. Would 100% stay here again.
