Great English speaking staff. Very welcoming and friendly. Laundry detergent provided for washing machine in unit (though it was extremely slow). Appreciated the location near Kyoto station. Good home base for our travels in the area. Reasonably priced.

The stand out about this hotel is the people. Everything with the property is excellent. But a hotel is about people. The people that care for you here are so lovely and warm that they feel more like family. You really look forward to seeing them every day and engaging them on the traditions and culture of Japan.
