This was a nice hotel literally right beside the Nishiki Market area. LOTS of shopping and food options right outside the hotel's front door. The place is immaculately clean and the rooms very clean. Overall enjoyed our stay. Nothing made it outstanding or special but it was satisfactory.

The hotel had a great mascot “color your stay” it was really cute. The location was right in the SHINKYOGOKU arcade. Easy access to walk right into a cute alley. Tons of sightseeing and shopping with excellent proximity to the hotel. I was impressed with the instant hot water, lots of lighting options. Services in the hotel were fast fiber WiFi, in room laundry. It was great. Looking forward to returning soon!

We loved our stay at this hotel. It's modern and clean. Loved having access to drinks on entry level floor. The room was pretty large and spacious. And the location was the best. We sent our luggage earlier from Osaka, and it was already in our room when we checked in that evening. Highly recommend this hotel.

Love that we have a washing machine inside our room to wash our dirty clothes at night, and have dry, clean clothes in the morning. The room was good enough for 3 adults to move. There’s free drinks and coffee in the lobby. Also has free sake at night.

The location of this hotel is great. It is what we liked most about our stay here. You literally walk out onto the Shinkyogoku shopping arcade and Koe Donuts is right downstairs too. What stood out for us was that hotel staff was not very friendly compared to ALL other hotels we have stayed at in Japan over the years. 50% of the time, no one sitting at the front reception desk would even look at us or acknowledge us, which was highly unusual for a Japan hotel. They would simply stare at their computer screens even when not helping any guests. Room service was also a bit spotty and after our room was "cleaned" twice, we would find the trash can out of place, sink area a bit messy, etc. Hotel was clean overall and location was great. I think the staff needs more customer service training.

The hotel is in the heart of a shopping district within walking distance of Gion. We loved the location. Inside the hotel it’s very quiet and relaxing. There’s free coffee in the morning and sake in the evening. The bed and room were very comfortable. Having a washer and dryer was also very convenient. Only suggestion is to add some shelves for clothes. There isn’t a dresser or shelves so we had to keep clothes in our suitcase.

Literally steps to the Nishiki market/mall. Can shop till you drop and walk over to the hotel just like that. Excellent dining all around walking distance. Even if it rains, the mall/market is mostly covered so you can shop and not waste the day. Very clean and modern boutique hotel. Free sake in the evenings and large lobby to hang out. Close to train and bus stops. Hotel offers breakfast (catered - no restaurant) in-house) but can opt out as there are several cafes nearby.

100% recommended!

It was our favorite stay of the whole trip. The hotel is so conveniently located within a lot to do. You have a ton of shops, restaurants, Nishiki Market is at walking distance, subway station is a few meters away, bus stations are also close-by. Gion is even around a 20min walk. Since this was a VIP property and they had availability, we were able to get upgraded to a suite. It was such a great and spacious room. Great comfort in general. The staff was super friendly and helpful. There was a beverage vending machine inside the lobby, coffee and tea and there was sake available to taste at the lobby in the afternoon. It was all very much appreciated. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We loved our stay very much. We hope to return soon and stay here again.

We loved how this hotel is perfectly located near Nishiki Market and the train stations. Walking distance to lots of restaurants and the hotel amenities are nice. My husband absolutely loved the comfortable leather slippers in the room he wanted to know where to buy it. We'd definitely book again in this hotel if we go back to Kyoto :)
