Great location and comfortable
Reasonably priced hotel located adjacent to the Gion district in Kyoto. I booked a small double which is 12sq metre so be aware of the size of the room and how limiting this is with space for bags etc. Other than that well priced and comfortable. Free breakfast was a mixture of hot and cold western food and much appreciated.

The hotel is not as good as it is described on the internet. Everything is too small, including the lobby and the guest room. The hotel staff lacks friendliness as compared to other Japanese hotels we’ve stayed.

Well placed for using public transport, plenty of places to eat. Close to places of interest. Need to make people aware that they are futon style beds and so you are on the floor.

This hotel is in a very convenient location. It is within walking distance to Kiyomizu-dera and some other sites. The train station is also within three minutes walking distance, making it easy to get to other tourist attractions. The hotel is good value. You get complimentary breakfast and drinks. There is a good selection of drinks and food. There is free laundry available. You will only need to pay a small amount for some detergent. Staff will go out of their way to help you. The rooms are small but clean and comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here.

Highly recommend!
Highly recommend this hotel! A generous breakfast is included. Room is updated and very clean. Safe area. Walkable along the river to the big market. Subway and bus right outside if you don't like walking. This was one of our favorite hotels in Japan, and was the lowest price by far. The room is small but well set up, so quite comfortable.

Hotel was very comfortable. Rooms have enough closet space to put your travel luggage away. Breakfast was good. Not a lot of options but satisfying enough. Walking distance to Metro, temples, Gijo food district and shopping. Will definitely stay here again.

Hotel is located right next to a train station. It is a station away from Gion. Fushimi Inari is several stops away. Kiyomizu-dera is 15 min of walking. The stuff is very nice and polite. My room was a bit weird mixture of traditional japanese and modern styles, but it was nice, clean and comfortable. Excellent value for what I've paid!

Friendly and attentive staff. The rooms are a bit small but that’s to be expected in a Japanese style hotel. The beds are futons on the floor, so be prepared for that as the pictures don’t make that completely obvious. Overall a great experience.

This was a cute and convenient hotel - however the space is very, very small! The bed takes up 80% of the room. Thankfully this was not too bad of an issue due to us having two bags, but I would recommend this place mostly to solo travelers or couples who pack light and don’t mind compact spaces and no room view. The breakfast buffet was nice, so was the staff. The room itself included a refrigerator, toiletries including toothbrushes, a brush, hairdryer, etc. It had everything we needed.

Great location above the train station and walking distance to all of Gion. Rooms are quite small, but comfortable. You wouldn’t want more than 1 bag each. Tasty breakfast included.

Awesome experience
Awesome staff. They helped us a lot to try to places where we wanted to go. They also have a great breakfast menu. Daily room clean was available. The place has Lawson, Family Mart, and 7-11 within walking distance less than 2 min, 30 sec walk to the closest KH line station and 10-20 min wall away from Kiyomizu-dera. I would totally stay here again next time coming to Kyoto!

Really happy with this hotel
I really liked this hotel, good location - not far from Gion & Kiyomizu-dera & public transport. The room had a wardrobe & a space to store suitcases as well as a little nook in the entry for coats & the like. The bed was really comfy - just note that it's on the floor & this might be difficult for those with physical issues. The free breakfast was nice, not a huge range but what's available is good quality. You can sit and eat breakfast overlooking the street. Fantastic laundry facilities & an excellent elevator. The elevator was always quick & I really liked that! Staff were nice, I didn't interact with them too much, but they were all professional & good at what they do. I would stay here again, it's a really good hotel.

Terrible hotel staff attitude
Majority of the hotel staff could not speak English nor Mandarin. Hotel sign is facing 1 direction which makes it easily miss. On the day when I checked out, I decided to buy some food from local shops next the hotel. I brought the food to the hotel cafe but the receptionist told my mom that the cafe was closed for cleaning. I didn’t see anyone cleaning and the sign said closed from 20:00 to 24:00, so I went in to get a drink. The female receptionist came from behind, shouted at me and slammed the cafe door. All of us were shocked at her rude attitude and felt humiliated. My impression of the hotel staff n Japanese culture have been good until this incident happened.

-Good location with underground access (Kiyomizu-Gojō) nearby and taxis frequently passing by, bus stop outside, lots of good pottery shops, convenience shops such as family mart and Lawson and local restaurants (udon, takoyaki, ramen, bars etc) -Breakfast was satisfying and was of good quality. It is an all you can eat buffet catering a mostly Japanese style breakfast -Staff were always welcoming and saying displaying the usual pleasantries of good morning and were always available to help you as best as they could

We had a Japanese double room, and it was really small. There was only a narrow walking space to reach the wardrobe, and no space to place an open bag. For the price that we paid, there are other better options. Won't recommend this place.
