Very good location in the center of Gion district with many restaurants around and near some of the tourists spots and the shopping streets (Kawaramachi, Teramachi…). Also close to bus stops (including the one that goes to Kinkakuji) and subway station (Keihan Line, Tozai Line and Hankyu Line on the other side of the bridge) A good room with a touch of traditional style, not that big but well organized and clean with very good coffee and other hotel necessities (including a skincare set).

Brilliant location, especially if you like wandering around. Also, it was super clean and the separate bathroom /toilet set up in my room was very practical. Overall a very comfortably stay at a great place . Washing machines were very handy too!

Not really a dislike, but the rooms are typically compact. So you just have to adjust. If you’re doing work, there’s no chsir/desk But my improvised stand-up was very effective!

The location is close to all the excitement and tradition of Gion but quiet. The laundry room is a good addition a few automatic, detergent dispersing, washer dryers 4x 100y coins. The room was well laid out and well equipped, The size is reasonable once you have adjusted to Japanese room dimensions! Met all needs and felt safe. A Lawsons almost next door with helpful staff.

The lift is slow. Be sure to show Taxis the exact address and hotel name, confusions are costly

Very convenient location, right next to Lawson's as well. Staff was very helpful. Washing machines give you options to wash and dry for 500yen and takes about 2 hours. Overall aesthetic was nice and homey. I got the room with the tatami floor mats and was happy with it. Shower had ample space.

I did wish that they provided us with a table or some sort of small desk for us to use but we still did good without it and provided the room mightve been too small to fit one.

Beautiful, new rooms. All tastefully decorated. The location is excellent. You can walk to the most popular tourist attractions of Gion. At night this street transforms- suddenly open bars, clubs, lots of people, and lively activity. During the day, everything is very calm.

this is a very busy place in Kyoto. We stayed in another Kyoto hotel closer to the city centre, in a residential area, so the sudden rush of Gion people, especially in the restaurant streets, didn't seem so disturbing. I'm glad we had both these experiences not just this one.

- The bathroom is so big and comfortable. Bath tub + shower. There are so many amenities: tooth brush, hair brush, lotions, facial creams, bath salts/milk, shower cap, hair ties etc. - Very nice interior design - I don’t understand the complaints about the room being too bright. They provide you with black sleeping masks. I didn’t even use those and slept very well. Because it wasn’t even that bright, it’s very quiet and the bed is big and comfortable. - 2 bottles of water per day. There’s free coffee and tea. - the staff help you with forwarding your luggage using the Yamato Service. Was so easy

- the elevator is quite small and stops at the lobby each time

In a great location, walking distance to gion-shijo station and despite being close to busy areas, bars and restaurants it was very quiet. Staff were very helpful and friendly at all times. The room had great aesthetics and was peaceful. The bed was the most comfortable I have slept on in Japan.

The room was small - it was not a problem for me as a solo traveller but would not have had room for luggage for more than one person.

Clean and quiet hotel in Gion, close to many restaurants, bars, convenient stores, the river, etc. Very accurate photos so we felt like we got exactly what we expected. Easy check in and low-touch hotel in general (no breakfast, coin laundry).

Our TV was mounted just to the side of the bed in an extremely awkward position; every time one of us got out of the bed, we hit (or almost hit) the TV.

Really liked the style of the room, it was a bit modern mixed with Japanese heritage, such as the 'bedroom' part of the room was elevated and had tatami like flooring. Also liked that the toilet and bath was separate. The bathroom also had a 'dryer' setting, so after washing our clothes in the laundry, we hung our clothes in the bathroom for a fuller dry.

Not a lot of washing machines available and they are dual with dryers, so it didn't completely dry our clothes.

- Very convenient location. Close to train station, sightseeing places, shops, and food - Bathroom was very big, nice array of toiletries including face wash, ear plugs, eye mask - Bed was super hard, which is good for my husband but not as good for me

- Front desk person was not super comfortable speaking English, though he was polite. The booking shows up for the hotel under the names of the people in the rooms, not the person booking, so that took a little bit of back and forth to figure out - Front door/lobby is a little hard to find. The grey portion of the building that juts out and has a door facing the street is actually a restaurant on the 1st floor. There is a door further back with an elevator telling you that the lobby is on the 2nd floor
