Really lovely hotel in the heart of Kyoto.
Pros:

Actually a really spacious studio.
Love the 4 bottles of free water instead of the standard 2 we get everywhere else.
Fantastic shower with bath tub, a really lovely bathroom. Toilet room was a bit small but it’s not bad at all, love that it’s separate to shower room.
You get free snacks and drinks (soft and alcoholic) which is truly phenomenal and I’m so grateful for the treats.
If you stay in the studio section of the hotel you go through a different area to access your rooms. Feels very luxe, private and exclusive.
Also uber eats has a lot of options nearby.
Great location for Kyoto. Highly recommend.

Cons:

Not big things but something to consider for the hotel. Having some vegan snacks in the snack room would make me so happy or labelling what allergens there are on the little cards on the snack dispensers.
Would love to see a small mirror in the toilet room.
A large painting above the sofa would elevate the room too as it can feel a bit overly minimalist, but overall not really anything to fault with the facilities honestly. I’m just picking things that aren’t important for the stay.
Also I’m tall and can see there’s a layer of thick dust on the very top shelf above the wine glasses
There is some building work happening next door so if you lie in you will hear a little bit.

Super komfortable Unterkunft mit viel Platz in toller Lage!
Pros:

Tolle Aussicht, viel Platz, gute Lage, komfortabel mit gratis Snacks und Drinks rund um die Uhr und Waschmaschine und Trockner im Keller.

Cons:

-Ich hatte ein bisschen Probleme mit der AirCo-Luft. Gerade über dem Bett sehr trocken, was bei mir Husten ausgelöst hat. Sicher eine individuelle Reaktion, die nur Empfliche teilen.
- Ungefähr 1,5 Meter vom Fenster entfernt ist ein neues Gebäude gebaut worden, das noch im Bau befindlich ist. Bisher endet es auf derselben Etage, wie das Hotel. Während unserer vier Tage (Freitag bis Dienstag) haben wir dort niemanden gesehen, hätten dort aber Bauarbeiter gearbeitet, hätten wir auch über Tag für unserer Privacy die Hälfte der Fenster mit Gardinen verdunkeln müssen. Das wäre schon schade gewesen. Geschweige denn dessen, wie es aussieht, wenn das neue Gebäude fertig gebaut und in Greifabstand gegenüber steht.

We were so impressed with this place from beginning to end.
Pros:

The room was amazing, definitely the largest of our four during our two weeks in Japan. It was so nice to finally be able to spread out. The location to Kyoto station was really convenient but it’s also out of the main part of the city. Also, the room with snacks and drinks was a really nice addition, as were the records and games.

Cons:

Again, the location is fine - great proximity to Kyoto station but not near the main part of Kyoto businesses.

Home away from home with stylish comforts & very clean.
Pros:

Within walking distance of Kyoto Train Station (even when dragging a suitcase). Lots of eating places & convenience stores close by. Amazing amount of room for Japan accommodation. Nice big bathroom vanity to spread out toiletries.
Great the toilet was in a separate room to the shower.

Cons:

Would have liked somewhere in the bedrooms to put your day to day stuff. The things that don’t get hung in the wardrobe. Needed a unit (like a dresser).

Отличен хотел на много удобно място в Киото
Pros:

Изключителен апартамент. Просторен, удобен, разкошен.

Хотела е на много удобно място - буквално на 5-10 минути пеш до Ж.П. гарата. На няколко минути пеш от храма Higashi Hongan-ji

Great luxury retreat place easy to reach by foot from Kyoto station
Pros:

Very comfortable studio apartment - especially for the standard of space in Japan ! Very. Purist of atmosphere and great bathroom with massive shower - the location is very practical as 5-10 min walk from station Kyoto -

Cons:

While the service was very reactive, the front office is shared with the 3stars hotel and in my view didn’t always meet the standard of prices of th hideout 400€+ per night…. For instance we asked for some change for the machines to be put on our bill (or even charged to credit card immediately ) as we didn’t have any and were told it wasn’t possible and to go to an atm somewhere … first world problems I know ;) overall we had a great stay and otherwise good reactive support
