Comfortable hotel in Kyoto
Pros:

Our room was spacious, the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good and we enjoyed the different restaurants for dinner two nights. We also liked the bar where we had after dinner drinks several nights.

Cons:

Location was a little further than I would have liked to get to some of the attractions.
