Beautiful, luxurious hotel in the heart of Kyoto

The hotel is conveniently located next to Kyoto station, and a quick walk over to the Higashi-Hongan ji temple and Shoshei Gardens. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodated our every need. We had dinner at the restaurant which was the best meal of our entire trip! Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat.
