This was a great hotel with friendly staff that could not do enough for you. Nice spa and large comfortable room. The location in Gion was more residential and quiet but just a couple of blocks from the action.

Fantastic hotel
Megan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel has an amazing location close to everything. Rooms are comfortable. The spa was clean and a nice option after days of walking. The common areas (bar, restaurant) are crowded because they are small relative to the number of guests. The lobby area is nice but during check in times it is extremely busy as well.
Mauricio, 4-night trip
