Very helpful staff. Great location with walking distance to most Gion attractions (Pontocho Alley, Hanamikoji street, Kiyomizu Dera temple). Nice modern and comfortable rooms. We had the sauna room which worked great. We highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel was really nice. The room we got was pretty big considering Japan sized hotel rooms are usually small. It also had a tub and a sauna in the room. The location was pretty walkable to most sites. Staff were average compared to other hotels we stayed at during our trip, not as welcoming or jolly. There is also free coffee and tea in the lobby all day. Highly recommended staying here.

Wonderful hotel in the middle of Gion. Friendly staff. Spacious rooms. Comfortable beds. Quiet. I wouldn’t recommend breakfast. Chaotic and not enough food, restaurant staff doesn’t speak English so ordering simple eggs can turn into an odyssey.But the coffee is fantastic. Other than bfast I definitely recommend this place.
