Pros:

Der Empfang im Hotel war sehr freundlich und die Mitarbeiterin konnte ordentliches Englisch.
Das Zimmer war aussergewöhnlich gross für japanische Verhältnisse und war super ausgestattet. Ein Fenster mit Ausblick hat das Zimmer nicht, was uns aber nicht störte.
Die Klimaanlage funktionierte sehr gut.
Die Lage ist ebenfalls sehr gut und ruhig. Zum Bahnhof Kyoto dauert es knappe 3 Gehminuten.
Der Versand unseres Gepäcks an unsere nächste Destination hat ebenfalls bestens funktioniert.
Alles in allem waren wir super zufrieden und würden dieses Hotel jedem weiterempfehlen.

Cons:

Nicht unbedingt eine Kritik, sondern vielmehr eine Anregung: Das servierte Frühstück hatte einen super leckeren Smoothie und dazu jeweils je nach Tag entweder Salat, Suppe & ein Croissant oder Panini. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker, vor allem für westliche Gäste kommt der Salat und die Suppe aber eher überraschend um diese Uhrzeit.
Vielleicht könnte man dies prominenter erwähnen beim Check-in.
Nebst dem servierten Frühstück gab es eine Auswahl am Buffet. Dort könnte man noch Brot anbieten. Alleine Toastbrot und ein Toaster würden vermutlich viele Gäste schon erfreuen.

Pros:

The room was beautiful and featured modern decor. We walked over from Kyoto station and were able to drop off our luggage before check in. The staff were friendly and delivered our luggage to our rooms. The toiletries that were provided were high quality. The location is great for taking adventures from Kyoto station.

Best hotel in our trip in Japan
Pros:

The hotel is comfortably located 5 minutes walk from the train station, but hidden in a quiet local street. Very helpful staff. Clean and modern, greatly designed, spacious rooms. The best hotel in Japan during our travel.
