Great hotel, full of Japanese details in the room, very spacious, complementary mini bar was nice to have. Few hotel amenities and the restaurant breakfast menu is limited, other than that, it was fantastic and I would stay again. I wish the staff would offer the VIP perks.

The location is perfect, close enough to everything but far enough to not feel as busy. The staff is very accommodating. They do not have heat in each room but will supply a space heater if needed! The meals are worth paying extra.

The hotel location is good, next to Marutamachi Station subway (Karasuma line from Kyoto station). Next to family mart. However, a little comment about the VIP credit of JPY1100, the front desk should explain more on how guests can utilise it. I have returned the credit without enjoying it.

Room: Very spacious including toilet area Staffs: Excellent staff who can speak bilingual English Food around the area: Very limited choice compare to Gion area. If you have a full meal before heading should be fine Overall a excellent hotel which will come back in future.

We did not like the breakfast as we expected a buffet where we could choose our breakfast. There was a set breakfast of 5 options including curry. I like curry but not for breakfast. As we stayed 13 days the variety of meals was bit challenging !

Really a first class hotel with a large, well-appointed room, generous amenities, professional and thoughtful service. Right on the Karasuma line with easy access to Kyoto Station and the whole Kyoto ansportation network. One of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed at. Imperial Palace across the street. I highly recommend. Thank you!

Great location right next door to train station. Great recommendation from staff at front desk who assisted us make bookings for a restaurant to try Kobe beef - even made the call on our behalf in local language to ensure we had reservations to preferred seating. Good spacious rooms with modern amenities.

We were only here for one night, as we spent a previous night at a traditional Ryokan in Kyoto. Overall, the hotel room is fairly large compared to other rooms we stayed at in Japan. The location was also convenient as it sits on top of a metro stop, which can take you directly to Kyoto train station. The metro stop does not have an elevator easily accessible at this stop, so if you're lugging a lot of luggage, I recommend taking a taxi from this metro stop.

Very nice hotel with a good amount of space. Service is excellent and everyone speaks English even when you try to say something in Japanese. The restaurant is excellent with good prices and it’s next to the train with lots of food around. Great location to get around Kyoto.
