    The rooms were beautifully designed and well thought out, the whole vibe of the lobby and hotel was tranquil and clean. The private spa and free drinks were a huge bonus as well. Location was perfectly between downtown area and Gion.

    We loved that the location of the hotel was walking distance to the Gion District. It was about a 15 minute walk from a train station, so it was a little difficult with hauling luggage, but other than that the location worked great for us.

    Fabulous location! Kyoto can be busy, but with this location, it was easy to be out when the crowds were gone. Great location to walk to many sights, great food and drinks. Reserve the private onsen/spa! Well worth it! Room was very comfortable,...
