Pros:

The location was great, the room were so spacious which was a treat coming from a tiny room in Tokyo!

Cons:

We stayed in the top floor room with a balcony and there was no lift which was killer after 20k + steps a day! Also the A/C wasn’t the best. It worked but didn’t make the room ice cold.

Great location and nice stay.
Pros:

The facilities were good (Dyson hair dryer!) and room was huge.

Cons:

We booked the room specifically with the Futon to try this whilst in Japan but we didn’t touch this room in the end as there was hairs all over the futon mattresses and unpleasant stains on the quilts in there so we steered clear.

Pros:

The hotel room was big and shower room was also great. The location was a short walking distance to yasaka shrine!

Cons:

There were no elevators, so if you have luggage and was booked into the upper floors be prepapred. The stairs were narrow so it was hard to carry big luggages up 5 flights of stairs

Pros:

Je ne recommande pas cette hôtel. Hormis son emplacement à côté du quartier de Gion et le métro de Kyoto pas loin, tout le reste laisse à désirer.

Cons:

La propreté de notre chambre n’était vraiment pas terrible (poussière présente sur la table de nuit, étagère de salle de bain et bord de fenêtre ainsi que des traces de dentifrice dans la salle de bain et le sol mal nettoyé).
De plus l’hôtel a l’air récent et pourtant il est mal entretenu ce qui donne des rambardes dans l’escalier (sans ascenseur) endommagé, les murs et les sols des couloirs et escalier plein de traces et des équipements lumineux non fonctionnel.

De plus nous devons parler à différentes personnes à l’accueil qui certes ne sont pas désagréable mais qu’elles soient présentes ou non, ça ne changerai rien car elle sont continuellement sur leur téléphone avec le son à fond.
Nous avons contacté l’établissement en avance pour savoir si l’envoie de valise était possible à partir de celui-ci.
Effectivement c’est possible mais ne comptez pas sur l’accueil de l’hôtel pour vous aider. Ils se contentent seulement de garder vos bagages le temps que le Takkyubin (que vous aurez contacté) vienne cherchez vos bagages.

Pour finir l’isolation phonique et thermique sont inexistantes ce qui est dommage dans un bâtiment « récent » et le couloir/escalier étant exiguë, il est étrange de laisser des poche de linges dans le passage.
