Unassuming when you see the this hotel within a list of hotel but this is one of the best hotels (or technically a potel?) that I have stayed at in the past year. The area near the hotel is full of nature and you have an unblocked view of the sky from your room window. There is a cafe downstairs with tall glass windows if you want to spend your day on your laptop or reading a book while having coffee. There are also common space where you can self serve yourself drip coffee (with specialty coffee beans) or other drinks (alcoholic too). There are common rooms where you can find shelves of books, listen to music or play board games. The addition of these common rooms give a very friendly feel to your stay. This hotel is very unique in that sense and it's an easy recommendation for everybody who is looking for a great hotel to stay in Kyoto. Don't forget to try the hot amazake from the store near the hotel especially when it's chilly outside!
