The hotel had a relay good size hotel room and really helpful staff. The location was good enough in general for transport and restaurants (walking distance to Pontocho). The station nearest stations were a little far but walkable. There were plenty of shop walkable from the hotel including Nishiki market. A very comfortable stay and a good hotel.

We liked the hotel very much. Great breakfast choices with gorgeous view. People were awesome, nice, helpful & friendly. I would recommend this place for our friends for sure. (they do need a long mirror in a room then it would be a perfect 10 for me. There are mirrors in the elevator).
