Very convenient from all the tourist attractions. The front desk staff were very professional and helpful. The breakfast and dinner options were also great. However the room service staff didn’t do the job top notch. Being in Japan, the service was expected little higher. But overly good experience.

Lovely modern hotel with polite and helpful staff who spoke many different languages. The lighting in the hotel room itself was far too dark, but the bed was comfy and everything was clean. It is not very close to the train station, maybe a 15 minute walk.

Very decent hotel for the price, lovely spacious rooms with comfortable beds. Cleanliness could have been better, there was someones crusty leftovers on the tv remote! But overall fine. I would not describe it as a 'station' hotel though. I am pretty able-bodied and from train to hotel took a minimum of 18-20min walk

A comfortable stay. The hotel design is very stylish and modern, and our room had a lovely view of the Kyoto Tower. It was easy to walk to the train station, bus, and FamilyMart. My husband and I used the extra twin bed for our belongings since space was limited. The toiletries were not always restocked completely, but the room was always tidy when we came back from our outside adventures. The room would benefit from better lighting. The switches were located on the nightstands and difficult to figure out because of the various lights in the room. They look great for mood lighting but were not bright enough for getting ready, particularly in the entryway. Overall, a nice hotel.

Wow this hotel was fantastic, very modern and comfortable. Only negative were how dimly lit the rooms were, which makes it very hard to have the right lighting to do makeup. But overall we loved our stay here. In terms of location it’s in a quiet area not far from Kyoto Station. Next time we’ll probably stay closer to Gion where most of the action seems to be.

So so service, nice room though
My reservation didn’t go through when I made it the night before my arrival. When I asked the front desk for a room, she said there were no king size beds available. Only 2 twin beds for a higher price. I went online and made my reservation for a king size room. The rooms are beautifully decorated, modern with beautiful lighting.
