Hotel was clean and quiet - unfortunately the fire alarm was activated at 4am and we were all left standing outside in the rain for an hour as staff scrambled to figure out what was going on (fire department came after 45 min once other guests had forced the hotel to call them to come) Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep and it altered our next day. Also note that no apologies etc were given

Perfect hotel along a main highway in Kyoto. A little bit of a walk away from Kyoto station, though very pretty so definitely worth the walk over a taxi ride. The building looks a bit unassuming at first but is lovely. Due to my tattoos I did not use the onsen, but there is one available at times. They helped with filling out the Yamoto luggage service form (waybill) which is always super nice for the first time! Close walk from Kiyomizu-dera and Yasaka shrines - .come early in the morning or the evening to see less tourists on your way! I will most likely stay here again when I come back to Kyoto!

I bit disappointed, it is a traditional hotel but that is not an excuse for shabbiness. We stay in Tokyo in a similar hotel with similar price, the place was small and traditional but very comfortable this hotel is in need of a bit TLC.

Friendly staff but not very comfortable stay

The nearest train station is sometimes bypassed by the express trains. Not the most convenient line to be on. Staff were friendly and helpful but most cannot speak English to a sufficient level compared to the better hotels. Air con worked intermittently. We had to open the window some nights to cool the room. Room design was terrible

Property is close to Gion, Kiyomizu temple and the train station. Very walkable. They also have a onsen, which was greatly appreciated! however, they could improve on their wifi (which was slow).

Overall this property was really nice. The staff were fantastic and increadibly friendly. It was also really close to the Gion district and shrines. It was a little farther from night life but the subway got you there quickly. Only issue I had was that the minisplit air conditioner really needed to be clean. I would guess it hasnt been cleaned in years which was concerning since it is right above the bed blowing directly onto you.

The room was bright at night because of the window shade. You need to bring your eye mask if you are sensitive with the light.

I truly enjoyed the onsen. There arent a bunch of tattoo friendly baths in Kyoto but because we stayed here and the hotel is pretty intimate i got to enjoy a "private" bath without all the hassle. The hotel rooms were also very comfortable for the size, will definitely be back soon!

The blind had differing strips of fabric rather than a single sheet. This seems to have been designed for ground floor privacy usage rather a curtain or blind. It meant no could look in, not a problem on the 7th floor. However it still let it all the light. At 6am the room was brightly lit. Plus the single pane window meant all the street noise could easily be heard. The door to the room offered the same lack of protection and I could easily hear people talking in the hallway in the early morning.
