Et veldig godt og luksuriøst alternativ i Kyoto!
Pros:

Fantastisk flott hotell! Rommene var store og eksklusive, sengen var også utrolig god å sove i.
Personalet var også veldig vennlige og behjelpelige. Hotellet ligger meget sentralt til og du har gåavstand til det meste.

Cons:

Frokosten var ikke verdt pengene. Bestilte western frokost, men det var det ikke.

Far Exceeded Expectations
Pros:

This hotel was absolutely perfect for our 5-night stay in Kyoto. The room was large and luxurious -- it surpassed the standards of even much more expensive hotels in which I have stayed. Staff were beyond helpful -- no request was too much, even when it required quite a bit of their time (especially with 8 of us in 4 rooms, we often had diverse requests). The Reception Staff remembered all of our names and greeted us every time we left or entered. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Cons:

Breakfast was interesting but not necessarily to my taste. The choice of a "Western" breakfast was somewhat of a misnomer. But there were always delicious croissants.
