Reviews from visitors:
Excellent hotel. Rooms are relatively spacious making it ideal for families with kids. Cleanliness is top notch for both the room and the building in general. Looks recently renovated so interior and equipment are new, and as it used to be a kind of an apartmne ubilding before it has a "feel home" atmosphere. The staff are very kind. There are lots of small welcoming gestures that put a smile on your face such as complimentary coffee or tea bags at the lobby, toys for kids, or an open rooftop with a tent. Location it is just a 5 minute walk from the nearest train station, and for those who are comfortable taking local routes there are two close by bus stations. Other than that the hotel can easily arrange a taxi or you can rent some of the bicycles available at the hotel. As a bonus, the restaurant/bar at the ground floor has excellent burgers!
The best place you can stay during your holiday in Kyoto! Good for families! It's close to one of the top attractions -Arashiyama, but in the same time it's on a quiet and peaceful street. Great staff and service! They made us feel very special and treated us not only as customers but as very special guest and friends! The room was spacious, super clean, modern, fresh! The coffee fantastic! The restaurant downstairs provides original and delicious food! The nature around is just amazing and recharging! We enjoyed every little bit of our stay there and would recommend to everyone heading to Kyoto! We would definitely stay there again on out next visit to Kyoto!
1. New and fancy facility
2. Clean and cozy room
3. A bit far from famous bridge and historical temple.
4. There is no elevator. We are family trip this time which might be a bit tough.
5. The front desk always smiles to you
6. We order breakfast but they send the wrong ones.
We had a wonderful time at this hotel. Comfortable, clean hotel with very friendly staff. Make us feel most welcoming. Would love to come back again !
The staff in this hotel is extremely polite and helpful with lovely smiles all the time. However, this hotel is definitely Over-pricey (we spent more than 10000 NTD per night here during Autumn Leaf Festival) based on the room space, amenities, and location. It’s only 5 min walking from JR Arashiyama Station, but more than 20 min away from all the attractions in Arashiyama. Room insulation is not ideal, and there is no laundry room. Space and circulation are also weird that you have to walk thru Four doors before reaching your room. Overall, it was a disappointing experience for us.
