We stayed here as a couple for 7 nights and had an amazing stay. Overall a really modern and well equipped hotel, comfortable and greatly located! - Excellent location: Walking distance to Kyoto station and surrounded by restaurants, shops and temples! - Modern hotel with great facilities: A beautifully designed hotel, the facilities felt brand new. There is an onsen in the hotel which was fabulous to use after long days walking! - Comfortable room: The room was an OK size, and was very comfortable and quiet. - Amazing staff: All staff we interacted with were so friendly and helpful! Particularly the lady in charge of breakfast! Staff also helped us organise luggage forwarding. - Great breakfast and social area: The breakfast has two options but they were lovely. The lounge area was a great place to relax with complimentary hot and cold drinks, and a happy hour in evening. On one night there was even a free calligraphy lesson which was so much fun!

- There isn’t a great deal of clothes storage in the room, but this was a minor issue.

Gorgeous hotel, seems like a nice gem in the neighbourhood that it was situated in. Not too far off from the city itself, but it’s in a nice neighbourhood that seemed quiet enough. The uro (public bath) was also lovely! our room was also definitely on the larger side than what it usual in Japan, and the best was huge, felt like it could easily fit 3 comfortably. Service was also great, and the staff were helpful at every corner with whatever that we needed.

I didn’t mind this, but it was dark as mentioned by alot of other guests, so definitely not elderly-friendly, if you’re travelling with a bigger family. It was also surprisingly dusty, not that the room was dirty, but it just was dusty—or maybe because the place is darker, so dust is naturally more visible. But otherwise, really nothing else stark that we had to worry about.

The design of the hotel is very chic and the room itself had a very minimal and classic design. The hotel has a lot of amenities such as hand sanitising wipes, facial creams etc. and it was in walking distance to the station.

The room and especially the bathroom felt a bit claustrophobic because it was so small. The room was cleaned after three nights but was not cleaned very well (e.g. still a lot of hair on the floor). There were two types of breakfast and I personally do not like soft scramble egg and it was difficult to communicate with the staff in English to have them cook it longer but they tried their best.

The reception staff and cleaning staff were wonderful - friendly and very helpful. The architectural design of the facility was beautiful. The convenience of grabbing a face mask or anything was delightful! Loved the position of the hotel being in the quieter part of Kyoto & close to the train station and gardens.

We are not used to spaces - particularly the entrance - being as dimly lit and felt a little disorientated at times. Our room was very small - although we were expecting that in Japan - that was definitely the smallest we'd experienced. I think next time we'd opt for a larger room.

Unique, cozy and stylish room with all needed amenities. It was smaller than expected but very neatly designed and realized. The bed was comfortable with several pillow options and there was a tatami seating area as well. The main floor itself was tile. But if it gets cold you have cozy slippers to use. Staff was friendly and helpful and explained everything surrounding the room and hotel personally.

The location is just awkward. Very close to the station, but not really great to walk to with your luggage. A very narrow sidewalk makes it difficult to navigate with all the travelers going through the area. The windows in my room couldn't be opened and there was no view.

Lovely boutique hotel in a quiet area near Kyoto's main station. The hotel is very unique and I loved the decor, but the room somehow was even better! We loved our stay! We wanted a room with a tatami area and this together with the amazing view of the buddist temple next to the hotel was really really special. The staff was very friendly and helpful, specially the ones serving breakfast. In addition, I highly recommend the breakfast, both options were really nice but the Japanese one stole my heart.

The atmosphere is so serene! It is beautiful and quiet inside. The beds were firm but very comfortable. The heat/AC is efficient. Comfy robes are provided for use. Breakfast was excellent! Staff were pleasant and helpful, and many spoke English.

I didn’t mind the small size of the room but there is almost no storage. For more than a night or two that would be difficult- you can’t really unpack at all, and there isn’t even a good spot to put your suitcase out of the way.

A really great hotel, beautifully decorated and the room had such a unique design. We loved that it was only a 5-10 minute walk to Kyoto station. We didn’t have a chance to check out the facilities.

This isn’t on the hotel but we didn’t realise how far it is from the main ‘lively’ parts of Kyoto. If I was to visit Kyoto again, we would probably stay in a different location. However, if you like hotels that are in a quiet area, then this is for you.

I was very happy with my room, quite spacious, with a comfy bed on tatami, a fusion of Japanese and modern style. The grand bath is fairly nice as well - I used it in the late evening and early morning, nobody was around so basically enjoyed a private bath myself. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Especially the lady the first day I arrived ( I wish I remembered her name) - friendly, polite with a pretty smile - thank you for your help!

Amazing hotel, amazing onsen, kind helpful staff, easy check out. We got sick on the day we had to checkout, but the friendly morning staff person helped us book 1 ekstra day in a close by room on the same floor, so all we had to do was move out stuff. We really appreciated it! Would visit again 9/10!! Ps. Up the street (20-30meters) theres a small ramen shop which is a must try!

Breakfast wait time was unfortunate, however we decided to eat out all days except for day 1. During Check-in we had to give additional information which seemed a bit weird when they had all the information from booking.com but it still only took 5-10 minutes. There wasn't really any major issues.
