Amazing hotel. Very nice and spacious room. The elevators were cool same with the keycard for using the room electricity. Everything is literally walking distance. Definitely coming back to this specific one. The staff was also very helpful.

Hotel is in a great location and the room was a great size. However, there was a lot of noise in the very early hours of the morning from the streets near by (granted it was a Saturday night). The bathroom was also not cleaned perfectly - there were hairs about and a half used shaving cream tube left in the shower.

It was a convenient walking distance (2.5 km) to both Kiyomizu-dera and Nanzen-ji. It was very close to a lot of great restaurants and activities. The hotel was perfectly clean and their baths are very relaxing.

Hotel was in a great location to walk from. Rooms are quite compact so not really a work from the hotel option as my son found out! The rooms are well equipped and clean with a separate wet room and toilet

Clean, comfortable bed. Surprisingly quiet. The bathroom sink had non existent hot water pressure and the bidet had only cold water. Other than that great location and would stay again.

Had a corner room. Beautiful tinted windows on two walls. Best bathroom we encountered in our entire Japan stay. A bathtub with a skyline view! Terrific location with a huge array of food and shopping options steps from the hotel.
