The hotel was so close to the Kyoto train station South Gate. It was easy for us to catch the train, do shopping and dinning while we were staying at the hotel. Used Shinkansen, local trains and AirPort Express train from the Kyoto station without walking too far with our luggage.

Fabulous place and great location

Everything was excellent, even the location. Only issue is that you cannot keep the room cooled due to the power turns off when you remove your room key any time you leave the room, but its not an oawful down fall. It helps with energy efficiency, which is understandable.

Transferring our luggage from this hotel to the next one was not a smooth process. We were told that we had to use an online procedure, but the staff member at the desk was unable to translate what everything meant on the form for us. What should have been a simple 5 - 10 minute process ending up taking around 20 minutes and a lot of Google translate. That was frustrating.
