"Friendly staff, close to transportation. Beautiful hotel."

"My favorite hotel in Japan! It was absolutely perfect in every way. Clean, beautifully decorated, helpful staff, easy check in, super quiet, comfortable beds, room size was large and felt more like a small apartment with a sitting area and dividing doors. Location is near so many popular spots Gion, Nishiki Market, Pontocho Alley, lots of shops and restaurants, the river and close to subway stations. I did not want to leave. Highly recommend! "

"Breach"

"This hotel was not just incredibly clean, but they also had really good breakfast. They had tea, coffee and drinks from 11 AM to 11 PM. The rooms were spacious. The bathrooms were big and the service was incredible. It is completely beautiful and you are only steps away from a bus stop or a train station walking along the alley was incredible. Everything look like a postcard if I ever go back to Japan, this is where I will be staying again and again you will not be disappointed."

"Quiet rooms in an excellent location for shopping and key sights "

"Everything is dated and peeling apart but overall clean and comfortable. Some of the staff are fluent in English which is nice for more complex inquiries while some depend on translation tools but I appreciated their effort. The laundry dryer is typical for the region, it takes many cycles to dry and your clothes smell like a wet dog after "

"Conveniently located hotel with good connections to explore the city. Double bed was small against a wall and uncomfortable for a couple to have a good night's sleep. "
