Hotel Surroundings

The hotel is located on a street just off the intersection of Karasuma Dori and Oike Dori, and although it is in the central area of ​​Kyoto, it is a quiet and calm environment. There are restaurants in the vicinity, and there is a convenience store nearby, so I think it’s a convenient environment for staying and not having trouble moving around or finding a place to eat. I was within walking distance to sightseeing spots such as the Kyoto Imperial Palace and Nijo Castle, and enjoyed the city of Kyoto.

Staff and Guests

The staff were polite and pleasant to interact with. Since it is not a big hotel, I did not meet other guests and I do not know the customer base, but since the room is large and the atmosphere is good, it seems that it can be used by a wide range of people such as families, couples and friends.

Especially, it was convenient to have a washing machine and a dryer in the room. The stylish Japanese-style modern room was functional, dimmable, easy to use and cozy to spend time in.
