9/10 Wonderful! (1,395 reviews)

Conveniently located with a subway immediately in front of the hotel. Seems as though the hotel rooms are undergoing upgrades / modernisation. I stayed in one of the old rooms which was unfortunately outdated and looking worse for wear. I’m sure the rooms will look great once updated.

#FoodieFinds in Japan includes dango , a sweet dessert that is mostly made of mochi so it's chewy. It's so good when it's warm and usually served with tea.

It was my afternoon snack when I visited Kifune Shrine. It is served right in the shrine so I heard people ringing bells and clapping while I enjoyed my snack.
