tien.family_with_childrenNov 21, 2024 My wife and I traveled for the first time with our 7 month son. We were met at the front desk by Joe. He provided over the top hospitality. He saw our baby and immediately offered us a crib, diaper trash can, and a milk bottle sterilizer. We felt so welcome. It made our four day stay more comfortable.
It was nice to have the option of getting breakfast in the morning. I really enjoy their coffee machine and juice machine. After breakfast time is over, they offer ice cream, soda, and coffee for most of the day free of charge. The rooftop at night was very beautiful.
Walking distance to the train area. Convenience store and restaurants nearby. Safe neighborhood at night to walk. Would definitely come back here again.
Thank you Joe and management.
Very welcoming hotel. Definitely go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The welcome drink and ice cream was much appreciated. The roof top garden is a nice area and the lighting adds a special ambience. Joe in reception was very helpful and pleasant to deal with.
suryati.partnerNov 16, 2024 I love the complete & clean facilities in our unit room.
Absolutely in love with this apartment building-turned hotel. It made my stay feel so personal and comforting. I loved everything about the room – the space, the bed, the closet, the couch and tv, balcony, kitchen, the bathroom...and most importantly, the washing machine!!! I was travelling around Japan for 3 weeks, so the personal washing machine was an absolute blessing! The surrounding area of the hotel is quiet and peaceful. Subway station is a few minutes walk away. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I wish I knew more than just the basics in Japanese, but the staff spoke to me in English before I could even attempt any Japanese, so there were zero issues with communication. I was sad to have to check-out, I loved it there, but would definitely stay here again in the future (hopefully by then knowing how to speak a lot more Japanese)!
tiani.friendsNov 07, 2024 I stayed here for three nights, and loved it! I would have happily stayed longer. A few highlights:
- The rooftop patio: my friends and I loved it up here! The evening view of the city was beautiful, it was the perfect space to relax after a full day of walking and exploring.
- The happy hours in the lounge with sodas and popsicles! Such a simple thing, but it brought smiles to our faces each afternoon. A very nice touch.
- The free breakfast was always a good start to the day; we all especially enjoyed the fresh pancakes. One of the best parts about the breakfasts was the lovely staff! Each person greeted us with such happy smiles, it made the whole breakfast room feel like a very warm and welcoming space.
- The front desk staff! They were each super friendly, kind, and helpful. Joe in particular was so lovely in helping us figure out some transit options when we wanted to explore certain areas of the city.
- The fully equipped kitchenette and washer in the room was a lifesaver. The room in general was very comfortable and bright.
Our thanks for a wonderful stay! If I'm ever in Kyoto again, I will definitely stay here again.
Love it! Love it! Love it! Staff spoke fluent English, it was easy to ask for help. They have a chill rooftop on top. Walking distance to Shichijo station and supermarket and McDonalds is about 2 streets away.
The room was clean, neat and spacious. It has everything I need for a washer/ dryer to stove and iron and even an air purifier.
FYI, the actual hotel is wayyyy better than the photos.
Amazing place to stay. Highly recommended. A little walking for kyoto station, but different company trains are very near and walkable. They even provide bicycles for couple of hours.
pei-hsuan.familyOct 29, 2024 Nice hotel with very affordable price, breakfast is also included!
michiko.familyOct 29, 2024 Excellent staff and reasonable breakfast. Nice to have a washer in the unit also.
jessica.partnerOct 22, 2024 This was a large room compared to other rooms we booked in Japan. Had a closet to keep everything put away during our stay. Loved having the ability to do laundry! The shower is in its own space and that is also where you hang your clothes to dry and turn on the dryer setting.
I was worried about the bed being overly firm, it was not. I’d say it was medium firm. I’m used to a very soft bed at home and still slept great on it. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. I will stay here again for sure! Highly recommended.
victoria.partnerOct 15, 2024 Fantastic hotel, new, very modern. Close to local transport and across from canal. Super friendly and helpful staff. Rooms large, beautifully designed with kitchen, dining area, walk out patio, washing machine. Rooftop patio gorgeous at night. Wow. Stay here!
Best hotel in Kyoto. Great customer service.
Clean, newly opened hotel. Size of room is large conveniently located, walking distance from main area of Kyoto.
Comfortable 5-night stay for 4 people in a Twin & Loft Bed Family Room (2 pairs of bunk beds). Modern facilities with kitchenette, washing machine, balcony (great for drying clothes in the hot weather), breakfast and a terrific rooftop sitting area with views across Kyoto. A 5 minute walk to either Shichijo or Kiyomizu-gojo station on the Keihan line, which goes all the way to Osaka. This was a great base for 5 days exploring Kyoto, Nara and Osaka.
