8/10 Very good

Good hotel to rest
Great place to stay for NYE. Near temples and a short 15 mins walk to the main strip in Kyoto. There are a few love hotels around so maybe not a family area. Also a good 10-15 mins walk to the popular Gion Edo strip that leads to the most photographed temples

Great location

10/10 Exceptional

The staff are lovely and very helpful. The room was clean and spacious. Very quiet room with only 3 rooms per floor. The location is perfect and most attractions are walkable. We would stay here again without hesitation.

Love the area !!
Simple and easy stay. Front desk people were super sweet and helpful. They don’t have laundry facilities. The area is nice close to a cute street.
Karina, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a great, small hotel in an excellent location. Rooms are large (for Japanese standards), have good amenities, and are clean. The bed was quite hard and it hurt my back a bit, and this is coming from someone who likes firm mattresses. There are no other hotel facilities to speak of, but if you want a clean, comfortable and stylish room in the centre of Gion, I recommend this hotel.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were so accommodating, helpful and friendly. The room was very spacious! Probably the biggest room we had during our whole trip. Great location.

JANE, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very close to great restaurants, tea ceremonies, shrines, and the subway. The hotel staff were very helpful and the space was beautiful. Thank you!
Rebekka, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed in this hotel for about two weeks, which is probably far longer than the typical business hotel guest. Despite this, the staff kept the room clean and well stocked with towels, and were very friendly. The location was perfect and had easy access to all 3 major convenience stores and was just minutes away from the historical parts of Gion.
William, 20-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was in the old charming part of the Gion area which I loved. But the room was musty & dusty. I had to continually use allergy meds and asthma inhaler. They also did not offer luggage shipping options. Which really helps out solo travelers with luggage.

Solamente un pero…
Me gustó mucho el hotel, lo único que no me gustó es que el check out es a las 10 am, me parece demasiado temprano y te dejan claro que si te tardas te cobrarán por hora. Fuera de eso me encantó.
