This hotel is an absolute gem. The staff is amazing and went out of their way to help us in everything. The rooms are exceptionally well equipped and have great amenities and extras. The hotel is a short walk to Gion and the lovely old quarter as well as only a 10 minute taxi from the Shinkansen. If you are staying in Kyoto and want luxury combined with convenience at a great price this hotel is for you. Wonderful

This is top class boutique hotel in a quiet part of Kyoto. The transport links are excellent and we made use of the bus (right outside), metro, jr line, bullet train and local tram. We day tripped to Osaka, Nara and Hiroshima all from the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would not recommend the lounge access here as we hardly used it due to limited timings and number of guests it doesn’t compare to large 5 star hotels. The breakfast is al a carte which I enjoyed. It did get a bit repetitive with only one change on the second sitting. We stayed 9 days in a suite. Lots of complimentary extras in the room.
