While the dining options were limited within the hotel, the surrounding area offered various choices for snacks and drinks. It wasn't the best for a proper meal, but it worked for quick bites.

I had a comfortable stay at the hotel, with clean and cozy rooms, although the ventilation could be better. The service was fantastic, and the staff even helped me when I lost my wallet. The central location was great for exploring Kyoto, but my room had a view of the neighboring building. The dining options were limited, and the take-away lunch bag wasn't very appealing.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room came equipped with a smartphone for us to use during our stay, which was so convenient for exploring around with maps and getting a really cheap WiFi hotspot, saving our holiday. Although the view from our room was not the best, the room itself was cozy and perfect for a 3-night stay.

The location of the hotel was superb, just a short walk from the charming streets of Kyoto and near to Gion, the heart of the Geisha district. Being near the canal and Nishiki market added to the amazing experience, despite the view of the neighboring building from our window.

The dining experience was basic, with just a couple of pastries and coffee at the reception. It was not much but sufficient to start the day. Being in the hotel made it convenient for a quick bite before heading out to explore the city.
