My stay was absolutely amazing and worth every penny. Highly recommended
Great choice to stay in Kyoto if you're travelling!
not suprised, everything went smooth, nice place
A great choice to stay while in Kyoto, a little out of the main area but it's easy to commute. The hotel was even nicer in person and we decided to extend our stay. Staff were super helpful and friendly when we needed assistance with transferring our bags or hiring their bikes available. The communal area was a nice touch too where we were able to eat our own food in that area, heat it up and sit in their outside garden area.
Highly recommend it
We had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was perfect: the room was comfortable, very well equipped, and everything was clean. The property is also very nice and pleasant, with many amenities available for self-service at the reception. We lacked nothing during our stay. The only small downside is that the accommodation is a bit far from the city center. Fortunately, bicycles are available for rent right at the entrance, which allows you to reach the center in about twenty minutes. By public transport, you need to allow a bit more time. Upon arrival, we also had to pay a tourist tax. It wasn't a problem, but we would have appreciated being informed about it before our arrival. Apart from these few points, everything went very well. We recommend this accommodation without hesitation!
