Increíble location … across the street literally from Kyoto Gyoen Park … one of the most enchanting in the city. Excellent quality mattresses and pillows and very good staff and a lovely lobby.

Wish to have a little more space in the room. Desk counter space is minimal to be able to comfortably put my cosmetics, skin care and hair care stuffs. Also the bathroom is unit bathroom that no counter space at all. I gave 4stars because location and food was excellent.

I enjoyed that the breakfast alternated between Western and Japanese - that way I was pushed to try something I might not have tried. It was delicious and restaurant staff was lovely
