A luxury Japanese style

“My favorite hotel not only in Kyoto, but honestly one of my favorite hotels ever. I’ve stayed at many luxury hotels around the world, but experiencing authentic Kyoto style while still having a modern, contemporary feel is something completely different. It has the perfect balance of traditional Kyoto vibes and modern luxury. The location is also excellent, with many of Kyoto’s main attractions easily accessible from the hotel. The hotel is exceptionally clean, and the customer service is truly one of the best I’ve experienced. I even forgot my wallet when I checked out, and the staff tried calling me multiple times to make sure I got it back. That level of care really says a lot about their service. They provide daily skincare products and toothbrushes, and everything is refreshed every day. They also offer a complimentary happy hour with drinks, alcohol, and snacks, which is such a lovely touch. This hotel is absolutely worth every penny. Honestly, I have nothing to complain about. Highly recommended 10! ❤️”

“Great breakfast with good variety. Has omelette bar, noodle bar, and western + Asian options - Excellent hospitality -⁠ ⁠Tastefully designed. Limited space in Gion district but doesn’t feel cramped at all inside the hotel. Rooms' doors face an indoor skywell containing trees and plantation, which integrates nature into the accommodation. The skywell gives it a spacious feel. -⁠ Our room is situated on the first floor so there’s no view but a view of the small garden. Plenty of sunlight goes into the room. - Room design is efficient; utilizes limited space well. Two sliding doors can segregate washing area (snack bar + coffee machine table, toilet room, shower room) from the sleeping area (bed + TV) completely. •⁠ ⁠Small sauna with a single pool”
Worth knowing: Snack and drink bar is nice, but could have more variety. The "working space" is combined with the bar, which could have been situated in a quieter location. Rooms could have been larger (hence the "value for money" deduction). The queen-size/double bed takes up the majority of the room. However, there are separate spaces for the toilet and bath area. A snack bar + coffee machine area exists to divide the sleeping area from the washing area.

“The hotel was an amazing experience from the moment you stepped inside. The location was amazing because many temples and shopping areas were very near and otherwise we just walked to the next bus station. The hotel was modern and very aestetic but still had a traditional japanese touch. The room was very clean and we had plenty of space.”
Worth knowing: Nothing at all.
