Had a wonderful stay here. First off, the front desk person was very helpful and could speak decent English, so there wasn’t any communication problems for me. Second, amenities such as cotton buds, facial cottons, etc were just opposite the elevator, so take as much as you need. I like this concept as it creates less wastage. Third, the rooms were on the smaller side (I took a regular single room) but that wasn’t really a problem. The room had a nice view with extras such as an international adapter, very useful! Definitely gonna stay here again whenever I visit Kyoto. The location is really convenient too as Kyoto Train Station is just a 4-5 minute walk and there’s a mall nearby as well.

During my trip to Kansai, I had one of the best stays at this hotel. It is conveniently located just a five-minute walk from Kyoto Station. Although the room was small, it was bright and featured a lovely window. On the way to the hotel, there’s a fantastic 7-Eleven that offers a wide variety of snacks and sweets. I really miss that 7-Eleven now that I've moved to a different city and have tried other convenience stores. The breakfast here is very good, offering options like sushi, sashimi, and a range of both Asian and Western dishes. I also appreciated the welcome drink and the community area in the lobby, which I found lacking in other hotels I visited later.

I liked the hotel it's close to the train station property is clean staff is nice. Room was little bit funny for me you have a sink in the room I have never seen it before and my first reaction was where is shower because after I got in the room I saw door on the right and was only toilet but there is another door on the left for shower not used of this kind of layout. Breakfast is mostly Asian food but there is bread too.
