My partner and I loved this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room felt luxurious and clean. The onsen was also an amazing experience - we had it to ourselves on the afternoon we visited! An easy walk or metro ride to Nishiki market and local sights - I’d definitely recommend this hotel

We had an amazing stay! Beautiful hotel; amazing sauna; the food looked great but we didn’t eat here; the staff was very nice, and the room was super clean. Unfortunately, they do not have a washer and dryer for guests but you can pay for a laundry service. Side note, the design and theme are probably my favorite style!!

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent and fresh (i.e. new) hotel that's located a bit away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough that you can start your days with a nice stroll along the river or the narrow streets towards whichever tourist hotspot you're heading to. Rooms are squeaky clean, modern, spacious enough and very quiet (if facing the courtyard, at least). The sauna & spa in the basement is similary fresh and the sauna is nice & hot, even for a Finn.

Beautiful hotel in the perfect location of Kyoto. Close walk to Pontocho Alley & Gion, but also the best spot to walk the quiet streets in the morning. Large rooms with a classic Japanese look. The nicest staff as well. Highly recommend!

This hotel was absolutely amazing. We felt like we had a spa stay. The room was so beautiful and the whole Hotel has this calm, special feel to it. The gym was great- and hard to find in hotels in Japan- and the onsen was lovely Honestly one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in Location is great too!
Lobby is so gorgeous
The rooms are modern Japanese and so beautifully detailed
