This hotel is in a perfect location to be close to busy areas, yet still out of the way enough that you get a neighbourhood feel. The modern-Japanese style feels traditional whilst still providing all necessary amenities. The spa facilities are excellent with a sauna, onsen and cool plunge pool.

We loved this hotel. Rooms were really cool, fresh and of good size. Good breakfast with a mix of buffet and a’la carte. They could provide gluten free sandwich/ bread which was a big plus to us. Location was also great, central but in a quiet street.

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. They deliver breakfast to your room every morning which was delicious and an amazing touch. Staff were incredibly hospitable and the location cannot be beat. I'm never staying at a different hotel whenever I come to Kyoto
