チェックアウトも１１時だったので、朝食食べた後も温泉に入り、YouTubeも見れるし、ホテルを堪能して来ました。

Overpriced for the expectation of 4 star service.
Pros:

The location is close to the train in Arashiyama and the local sites nearby.

Cons:

They have a no shoe policy which is fine, but they do not hand you slippers and are expected to walk to your room through the halls and elevator barefoot. All other hotels I stayed at provided slippers for wearing in the halls as necessary. The room doors are sliding doors with one small lock that can make it a bit uncomfortable for safety, as well as sounds coming into the rooms from people in the hallway. This hotel was advertised as 4 star with amenities but it felt like 2 or 3 stars in comparison to other 4 star hotels in Kyoto and Tokyo. The hotel is far from any restaurant open later than 6pm for dinner if you do not plan to eat at the hotel. The price was also non-refundable over a month before arrival, so I could not change plans without losing a ton of money.

Bellissima experience giapponese
Pros:

Struttura molto curata nei particolari, pulita accogliente, una coccola per gli ospiti ! Cena molto delicata, possibilità di fare onsen privato molto carino ! Stanza bella grande con tutti i confort (forniscono oltre ai kimono, anche i pigiami e calzini e kit bagno). Personale molto accogliente e parlano abbastanza inglese

Cons:

Se devo trovare un difetto manca un angolo per bere un aperitivo alcolico. Inoltre anticipare la possibilità di mangiare il RAMEN e i Gyoza senza aspettare le 22, darei subito la possibilità alle persone che cenano di mangiare anche questi piatti!
