Nice hotel room with a kitchen. It was very close to the Gion district and easy to access the Sanjo train station. We traveled as a family with 2 young children. The place can feel small, but Ok for a short stay.
Great location in Gion and good sized flat. Went with my 3 teenaged children and the adults had our own separate room in the flat. It is a bit tight with three teenagers but still a nice place, good facilities, and excellent location. It is a mostly digital check in so pay attention to directions before you arrive.
Location is helpful for walking to the Gion temples and the main shopping area. (10 mins walk to each). The hotel is on a quieter residential street with large apartment blocks nearby. Handy to have a Family Mart in the same building. Our street view room was okay, the layout was very strange but had everything you needed. Beds were comfy. Kitchen was tiny and very cramped. We stayed over a weekend and it did get noisy.

Clean room, great location and nice room facilities
Excellent hotel! Modern, tons of amenities and easy in and out. Love the keyless entry and the rooms are fairly spacious and include a washer/ dryer combo. Really nice spa/ sauna facility to rent for private rental at a very reasonable rate. Hotel is located within walking distance to all of the action but on the fringe of it so it’s not noisy. Great decor and lots of USB ports , microwave, large fridge, cookware etc… Would definitely stay here again and we loved Kyoto!!

This hotel was absolutely amazing. It was super big for Japan standards, the amenities were fantastic, and it seemed very luxurious for the reasonable price. There’s laundry and a spa, Family Mart is right beside the hotel, and it’s in a wonderful location. The vibes were great, the check in/check out procedures were easy and smooth, and it was an overall amazing experience. We’ll absolutely be staying here on our next visit!
It’s very nice and roomy, easy to check in with a friendly front desk, you will need a code which they emailed ahead of time to check in, when arrived we have been told that we need to pay 300 yen per person per day for tax to be paid at check in which seems to be pretty common in Japan. You will need to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste, there is a family mart just beside the hotel, about 15 mins walk to the central city, bed are on the smaller size but comfortable,overall it’s a great stay.
