I found the hotel to be in a convenient area of Kyoto, with a great location that is both quiet and close to essential transport options. The rooms were well-equipped with facilities like air purifiers, sunken baths, and separate rain showers, providing a comfortable stay. The service was top-notch, with attentive housekeeping. However, the dining experience with seasonal local products was a bit lacking, and the facilities were average.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, complete with a separate rain shower and every amenity you could need. The location was perfect, in a quiet area yet still close to several bus stops, making it convenient to explore Kyoto. The dining experience was fantastic with healthy and delicious dishes. The facilities were top-notch, especially the sunken bath which was a luxurious touch. The only downside was the price, a bit on the higher side, but definitely worth it for the value you get.

The hotel is located in a very convenient area of Kyoto, close to several bus stops, making it easy to access essential transport to explore all parts of the city. The rooms are well-equipped with every amenity, including a separate rain shower and air purifier, and the facilities are comprehensive. However, the dining options, especially the fresh seafood choices, fell short of expectations. The price is reasonable considering the completed facilities on offer.
