Guest Reviews
- Chris (9/5): - Great location on a quiet street. Small balcony but was as described
- nivi (10/5): -
- Carmalisa (10/5): - Modern, clean, comfortable with an amazing view.
- Steffen (8/5): Tolle Unterkunft um Kyoto zu erleben - Tolle Lage und für Japan extrem geräumig Straße direkt gegenüber ziemlich laut. Ein Esstisch und Stühle wären gut gewesen
- Guillaume (10/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): Amazing. Would stay again. - The view was incredible. Large rooms. Great location and amazing staff
- Emmanuel (9/5): -
- Sébastien (9/5): Très bien au cœur de Kyoto ! - Emplacement top, bel espace dans l’appartement.
Personnel très sympathique et professionnel. Petit déjeuner un peu décevant.
Lits au sol un peu juste niveau confort mais c’est sûrement une histoire d’habitude.
- Stefano (9/5): -
- Nicola (8/5): -
- Pia (10/5): - Roomy apartment in the perfect location with friendly staff. What more can you ask for. Everything we needed was there.
- Dimitris (9/5): -
- KWANGDUK (10/5): -
- Olivier (10/5): Kyoto sur un plateau - Le personnel aux petits soins, la chambre absolument géniale pour une famille de 4 entre tradition et confort. Les équipements proposés en adéquation avec les besoins et quel emplacement ! A 2 pas du Gion 4 des grandes artères commerciales et à peine plus du Nishiki market. Cet endroit est au top 👌 Allez, pour vraiment chipoter le sèche-linge est un peu poussif mais est ce vraiment ce que l’on recherche dans une location ?
- Ashley (8/5): Clean and spacious townhouse in heart of Kyoto - It was very clean, spacious, and in a great area. The staff were nice and helpful as well. It felt a bit dated, and our key didn’t get us into the door at night so we had to keep asking a staff member to let us in.
- Neil (9/5): -
- Dorina (10/5): Fijn appartement op mooie locatie - Groot en mooi gelegen appartement op prima locatie.
Vriendelijk personeel Naast pannen ook een snijmes in de keuken toevoegen zodat je iets makkelijker iers kunt snijden om re koken
- Bhatt (10/5): Would stay here again - On the river, nice balcony.
- HSU (9/5): - 地點非常好,面對鴨川,出門就是櫻花大道,超市也很近,到景點也很近,住得很舒服 櫻花季房價有點貴
- JC (6/5): An alright place to stay in Kyoto, I wouldn't stay here in the future - Hotel staff were amazing, and the morning breakfasts were alright! Room itself was lackluster, and everything felt cheap. No room service, but at least you can pick towels from the main lobby whenever you want and emptying your combustibles/recycling was easy enough. But there was not a full mirror, no paper towels, no hooks/racks to place towels you just used, and everything felt a bit cheap. It was nice to have a couch in the hotel though. Does not include a full mirror, no paper towels, no hooks/racks for used towels, everything felt cheap.
- Angelique (9/5): -
- Heidi (10/5): Excellent place to stay! - It was large, very clean and on a beautiful street lined with Cherry blossoms! The bed felt hard but I slept so well on it! It was nice to have a balcony to sit and view the river and mountains. Nothing
- JU-CHING (10/5): - 超級完美
早晨起床看到波光粼粼的鴨川領人心曠神怡
附的餐具廚具都非常棒
洗沐用品都不錯
長期住宿也有洗衣機兼烘衣功能
非常喜歡這裡
- Julia (10/5): Would definitely stay again. - The views from the front of the building and the balcony were amazing. The amount of space you get is also quite comfortable.
- López Ghisoli (10/5): - espacioso, ubicación inmejorable, personal amable
- Kelvin (9/5): -
- Judit (10/5): Excelente - Estancia súper amplia, muy bonita, en muy buenas condiciones, muy cómoda y súper bien equipada, con todo lo necesario para vivir (casi como en casa). Tuvimos que recibir un paquete en el hotel y el personal se encargó de gestionarlo.
- Sandra (10/5): Beautiful apartment overlooking the river. - Great location for restaurants, temples, and easy access to trains. The apartment had lovely furnishings and it was perfect to have extra space for a few days. Having a washing machine was a big bonus.
- Anja (10/5): Super - Lage
Größe der Zimmer Kein Kleiderschrank
- 佑諠 (10/5): - 空間寬敞很大 設備齊全
- David (7/5): Belle chambre et bon emplacement - Le personnel et la taille de l’appartement Mal isolé du bruit et du froid
- Monja (9/5): Eine tolle Wohnung in guter Lage und das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit. - Es war eine tolle Wohnung und wir waren sehr zu frieden. Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit.
- Humberto (8/5): Great location and very spacious - Great location. English speaking staff. This is a full apartment so you get lots of space and privacy. Great as a home base around the kyoto area as it has a washing machine. Hotel can have luggage forwarded to and staff will help forward luggage to your next stay, which helps a lot! The clothes dryer ruined some of our clothes.
- Griffiths (9/5): Spacious and well located - Great location with awesome restaurants, bars, cafes and vibes. The place was very big by Japan standards (and even generally). Staff were friendly and helpful. A great spot to stay!
- Geoff Wake (10/5): A relaxing stay in a great location. - Our room was very stylish, comfortable and spacious. We overlooked the river and had a lovely outdoor terrace in which to relax. The staff were friendly, and super helpful. This was our best stay whilst travelling around Japan! Nothing. Everything was perfect.
- YU LIN (9/5): -
- Sonja (9/5): - Loved the layout of the superior suite and the combination of a bedroom and a tatami room. Great quiet street but close to many restaurants and walkable to sights. The bathroom could use a few hooks or a towel rack. But no other feedback.
- Shinachi Aurasa (10/5): - Few minutes away from multiple temples and near a beautiful river
- mika (9/5): 桜の時期にまた来たいです。 - 部屋は広くて、清潔でした。 洗濯機の乾燥機能がイマイチ。
- Caroline (10/5): -
- Minna (10/5): Tulemme varmasti uudelleen :) - Erinomainen sijainti, ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta sekä tilava huoneisto. Kaikki toimi hyvin ja plussana vielä pesukone. Tämä oli oikea löytö!
- JUNG SOOK (10/5): - 깨끗하고 넓고 취사가능. 세탁기 사용해서 짐이 줄어든게 좋았습니다. 수건도 매일 마음껏 쓸수 있었어요. 5박이나 했는데 중간청소 없었고 청소하려면 1층로비에 있는 청소기 가져다가 직접 하라고 안내함?????!!!!!!
강변이라 뷰는 좋은데 위치는 살짝 애매합니다.
- David (8/5): Worthy of consideration due to location, view and friendly staff. - Friendly, helpful staff. Cleanliness. View Noise (heavy footsteps) from upstairs guests walking around - quite a bit. Price is higher than average for comparable facility. No consideration given for stay of 7 days.
- Sven (10/5): Perfect! - Beautiful, cozy spot in walking distance / very well connected to most things we wanted to see. Perfect to relax and enjoy Kyoto. No complains.
- Nianhan (10/5): -
- Lionel (9/5): -
- Binbin (9/5): 位置很好,服务热情 - 位置在鸭川边上,景色不错,设施一应俱全,周围餐厅,交通都很方便。 夏季周围蝉声比较吵,窗户隔音不是很理想
- Tingyue (10/5): -
- Daniele (7/5): Lovely close to the station friendly - Good central location, everything we needed was there. It was a nice mix of traditional and modern style. It was a little dated, I thought it was more modern. We didn’t have a view of the river.
- JIAYING (9/5): -
- Tammy (10/5): Would definitely stay here again, was a great experience, staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay!! - Location was great and staff were amazing.
- chihiro (6/5): -
- Jeremy (8/5): great value for money in a great location - excellent location with helpful staff at reasonable rates
- Simon (9/5): - Excellent staff
- Donna (10/5): Spacious apartment in a great location with friendly employees - We stayed in six different hotels during our Japan stay and this was our favourite. A large apartment in an excellent location with very friendly and helpful employees. NA
- jacob (10/5): -
- HAN YU (9/5): -
- Jayne (9/5): Excellent location with helpful staff - Fully self contained apartment with 2 beds. Although one bed was futon in living room.
the location is excellent, walking distance to everything. Very nice breakfast delivered to the door each morning in a bento box Very hard beds
- Echeverria Dupre (8/5): Serene stay in the historic centre of Kyoto - Spacious and homely, very well located The second bedroom didn’t have full walls, just wooden lattice, so our children were disturbed by the light in the living room / kitchen space.
- Carmen (10/5): A great hotel. Perfect location and very spacious. - Perfect location to city, sights and transport. Very spacious. Nice view of the river and ducks and turtles! Pillows were uncomfortable.
- Christy (10/5): Ww had a wonderful stay. The room was wonderful and she staff was also wonderful. - Our stay was wonderful and we would definitely recommend and also stay again! This is our (my husband and I) 2nd trip to Kyoto and we loved staying here.
For those who don't speak any Japanese, the front desk workers (8:30 am - 8:30 pm) speak english fluently. The front desk workers between 8:30pm and 8:30am speak only Japanese (when we were there) but if you need you can definitely use an translating app and you'll be fine. They will also hold you luggage until check in. They can also help arrange luggage transport services should you need.
The location is very convenient we could easily walk to Gion, Ninenzaka, Nishiki market, and the Kawaramachi shopping area. Lots of dining options nearby as well.
The kitchen and larger than usual refrigerator/freezer was so convenient to be able to shop a grocery stores and make food in room (especially for breakfast). They have condiment and cooking spices downstairs should you need any for your cooking. In room washer/dryer and drying rack to hang clothes is also extremely convenient.
I would recommend booking a river view room as it is very nice and relaxing to sit on the balcony and watch the birds as well as people walking their dogs. I didn't have any issues with anything during our stay. We had a wonderful stay and appreciate the workers who were courteous, helpful, and kind.

We had everything we needed for a 5 night stay. The kitchenette was handy for leisurely breakfast and snacks, and it was lovely to have a washer/dryer.
Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!
- Callum (10/5): Beautiful location, spacious, comfortable. - Staff were very helpful, the room was beautiful and so spacious. Very comfortable and lovely space.
Would stay again. Nothing.

Wanted to live here!!!
- Anna (10/5): -
- Anna (10/5): - Отличное расположение с великолепным видом на реку, горы, город. Недалеко от Гинзы, но при этом на тихой улочке. Номер очень просторный.
Порадовало наличие стиральной машинки. Отзывчивый персонал - когда не смогли вызвать для нас такси по телефону, ночной менеджер бегал на улицу, чтобы поймать его для нас
- Marlene (9/5): Great location, easy access, very clean and plenty of space. Washing machine good - View, location and space Noise from people walking above
- Hannah (9/5): Tolles Apartment mitten in Kyoto in superschöner Gegend - Tolle Lage, extrem schöne Gegend, Blick direkt auf den Fluss. Von dort kann man ziemlich viel ‚ablaufen‘.
Bequeme Betten! Minimale Kritik: Es fehlen Haken im Badezimmer zum Aufhängen der Handtücher bzw. Kosmetikbeutel.
Der Boden wird schnell dreckig!
Mehr Sitzmöglichkeiten draußen wären super gewesen.
- Linda (9/5): Sehr empfehlenswert! - Sehr gut gelegene Unterkunft mit grosszügigen Appartments und sehr freundlichem Personal. Ausserordentlich sauber! Eher ringhörig, da die Schritte und die Musik der Nachbarn oberhalb hörbar waren.
- Mark (10/5): Spacious, clean, close to all. - The room was very spacious for a family of four adults. It was very clean and comfortable. We had the city view and it was looking over a running steam and beautiful street lanterns. Easy walk to all the cafes, restaurants. Welcoming and professional staff. I would highly recommend this accomodation to any families and clean people.

- Wai hung (10/5): -
- Caroline (10/5): - Zentrale Lage, schönes Apartment
- BARAK (10/5): - מיקום מושלם. דירה מרווחת נעימה. צוות מקסים
- Jonni (10/5): Would highly recommend and stay there again! Perfect place in Kyoto. - The location is perfect - in Gion, but on a nice quiet patterned street. We could easily get to the hustle and bustle or the train with a short walk but had quiet evenings to rest I cannot think of anything we didn’t like.
- cheng (10/5): -
- Seth (10/5): We loved the friendly staff, great location, cozy tatami room, and in-room washer, would stay again. - My wife and I and another couple stayed here for 3 nights in September and we could not have been more impressed. It was our first time in Japan and so we were a bit nervous, but all went well. The receptionist was friendly and helpful, the location was GREAT, just a street over from the busier part of Kyoto and easily walkable to so many amazing restaurants, bars and locations. The tatami room was a great little slice of a bit more of Japanese culture and the washer in the room was a huge plus, we would absolutely stay here again. The balcony is a bit small, just for standing really but honestly not a huge deal and in no way took away from our enjoyment during our stay.
- Shani (8/5): - Location was great , a lovely strewn close to every attraction. The appartement was facing the street and the balcony was closed. So the lovely view that’s advertised in the pictures wasn’t there. There was no view at all.
- Zachary (10/5): - Very nice views of the mountain and city from the back side of the hotel. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Only critique is that they could have offered some free coffee with the free tea selection! Otherwise, we absolutely enjoyed our stay.
- Mark (10/5): We loved that the appartment was a mix of modern and traditional Japanese styling. - The apartment was very comfortable. The staff were excellent. The location was great and only short walk to transport, restaurants, shopping and attractions. Loved the area. Was very quiet and only a short walk from the Gion district.
- Carmen (10/5): Wonderful day - Very spacious, good location Only hotel I stayed in The did not give water, pajamas, and coffee in the room.
- Michaela (10/5): -
- Sergio (10/5): Increible y comodo! - Las vistas, la ubicación, la cama en tatami era super comoda, y muy espacioso!
- Marc (8/5): -
