Comfortable and Spacious

The Superior Twin Room with Kitchen was very comfortable and thoughtfully laid out with everything we needed. The in-room washer/dryer combo was a game changer and made it so convenient to keep our clothes fresh during our stay. It felt like a home away from home!

Amazing Shower Experience

The bathroom had a fantastic shower that was very convenient. While it may have been small, it was well-designed and equipped with a fabulous Japanese Toto toilet, which added to the overall experience. I truly enjoyed my time here.

Cozy Tatami Suite

Staying in the Japanese-style suite with a tatami room was a unique and cozy experience. Sleeping on the futon on the tatami was both comfortable and culturally enriching. The serene garden view added to the peaceful ambiance of our stay.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were neat and cozy, with a fantastic private garden space that added a nice touch. It's super close to the Sanjo subway station, making it easy to explore Kyoto. However, I found the dining options quite limited, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it's decent value for the money, but there’s room for improvement, especially in the dining area.
