The hotel is very nice, the infrastructure is great, they have public baths but I didnt use them as they have a strict no-tattoo policy. Breakfast is really good, they have both Japanese and Intercontinental food. We got the Tatami Room, which is really great and sets you in the mood for your Kyoto trip! Situation is ideal as well, near Gion. Overrall, would recommend and stay again !

I recommended this hotel to everyone coming to Kyoto, you can build the itinerary around the hotels location as a lot of Kyoto’s attractions are around it like, Yasaka shrine, Kiyomizu dera, Gion district.
Very friendly and helpful staff

Excellent Staff
The staff here was amazing - everyone was super helpful. I want to specifically thank Joseph, at the front desk, for getting us a restaurant reservation (neither of us speak Japanese, and this restaurant would have been impossible for us without Joseph's help!). The room was smaller than expected based on the photography, but it was fine. Overall, the breakfast and the comfort-level of the room made this hotel seem expensive compared to others we stayed in while in Japan, but it may just be that Kyoto is expensive. It's possible that the onsen here is part of what you're paying for, and we just weren't interested in that for this part of our trip. Location is excellent.

So close to the street car and easy to hop on and get around town. This hotel was really lovely and the staff were spectacular. For those of you westerners…the showers are a little funny to get used to but enjoyable overall.
