Consigliata, buona qualità-prezzo
Pros:

Struttura piccola ma tenuta molto bene. Camera ampia (sopratutto per gli standard giapponesi) e confortevole, in stile moderno giapponese.

Cons:

Colazione scarsa come quantità e poco varia, non a buffet.

Pros:

The location is great and easy to access, can take bus from Kyoto station, about 30 min to the hotel nearby stop, about 5 min walk, many traditional F&B in the area, great for morning walk, and about 10 min walk to Kamogawa and Shijo.

Posizione top, ottimo design e servizi, colazione da migliorare
Pros:

Stanza molto bella e spaziosa, con una comoda separazione tra doccia/lavandino e WC (situato in una stanza separata). La TV disponeva di Prime Video, Netflix e altre piattaforme, utilizzabili con il proprio account. Ottimo design dell’hotel. Pulizia impeccabile e kit di cortesia molto completo (pigiama, ciabatte e prodotti per il bagno). Possibilità di usufruire gratuitamente di caffè, tè e acqua durante tutta la giornata. Posizione eccellente per visitare Kyoto.

Cons:

La colazione era piuttosto semplice e limitata (pane, marmellata, prosciutto e uovo). Avrei apprezzato una maggiore varietà di scelta e la presenza di qualche proposta più abbondante e tipica della tradizione locale.

Lovely hotel in a fabulous location. Stay away from the breakfast!
Pros:

lovely little hotel with super friendly staff. Nice size room and great location with the subway just across the street. Walkable to most attractions. Free tea/coffee and juices in reception

Cons:

Breakfast was very poor, despite it being 'free' it was unpleasant. Cold, wet scrambled egg on a paper pate from the fridge with a slice of 'ham' warmed in the microwave, a mini croissant and a small yogurt cup. Would be better off just doing some croissants and pastries and the tea/coffee. We stayed for 4 nights and only had breakfast once, couldn't face it again!

Lovely 4 night stay in kyoto
Pros:

The bed were the most comfortable so far on our trip to Japan. My favourite thing was the toilet automatically opening when you stepped in the bathroom 😭. Hotel staff were lovely and polite, rooms lovely and roomy. a hybrid between a ryokan and aparthotel vibe.

Cons:

The breakfast definitely left much to be desired.
