Pros:

This hotel stay was the best I have ever had. They serve you with complimentary treats and drinks at certain times of the day, you really do get a lot of value for money here. Also the size of the hotel room was much more spacious than anywhere else we’ve stayed in Japan. Highly recommend this place!

Pros:

Absolutely fantastic hotel. The staff were brilliant and so helpful. Subway was right on our doorstep allowing easy links to kyoto station in 9 minutes. We went for a room with lounge access which is a must. Good selection of drinks tp help you unwind after exploring this lovely city.
Lots of food places nearby including Nishiki market. We originally had a booking at the Hilton but so glad we changed our mind.

Excellent staff in all departments, very helpful and courteous. Club access was a real feature, hotel is very close to the subway so transport was really easy to areas in Kyoto and beyond.

Pros:

Loved this hotel. Rooms are nicely appointed and comfortable beds. Their hotel pajamas are the nicest ones in Japan! We had access to the lounge - afternoon coffee/tea and beautiful pastries included. Coffee machine serves a decent latte. Happy hour with free beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and snacks. The cocktail bar has a great selection and the bartender took pride in his creation. Breakfast was good (choice of eggs).Would have liked to have a coffee machine that serves lattees at breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel. Great value.
