The room was spotless, and exactly what we wanted. The hotel is clean, in a great location, and very minimilistic. We would stay here again if we ever make it back to Kyoto.

Where this hotel is situated is very convenient and in between the old and new areas that Kyoto has to offer. It is close to shops and transport. We had enough space for a family of 5.

The room was large and spacious. The bed was comfortable. Just a short walk to the main street for the Gion District. The access to extra needed items; like toothbrushes, tea, coffee, towels, etc in the hallway is convenient.

Great location, clean and convenient.

Excellent location. Convenient and clean room for family of 4. It was big enough for us as our 4 small suitcases fit under the beds, but if you travel with anything beyond check-in size suitcases there is only space for 2 on the ground. Check-in & out was super easy, staff was very helpful. The only downside was that the dryers could only handle tiny loads. We washed 2 big loads but then ended up air drying most of it on hangers in our room as the dryer was not very powerful, even at a 1/3 of our wash load. In the end it all worked out and I would stay here again for the location and value. We have 2 big teenage boys, so they enjoyed not needing to share a bed and each got their own twin.

Great Room Great Location

Couldn’t have asked for a better location. Around the corner of train and bus. Walking distance of infinite dining options and shopping. So close to everything. Really clean and comfortable. And the rainfall shower head is the best ever. I’m gonna get one for my home. Five Stars.

Location was great. Four of us stayed. Too tight. NO counter space at all. NO freezer in small fridge. NO microwave in room. NO lamps or variable lighting. Seemed all lights were either on or off. Might be ok for 2.

Ideal location

Great location, Kyoto is very walkable from the Kabin. Windows don’t open, so can get a bit stuffy. Rooms are a good size for Japan

A great place for our Kyōto stay. With a Family of 4, it was the most spacious accomodation of our 2 weeks Japan trip. Right in the heart of Gion. Plenty of restaurants nearby, washer/dryer. I highly recommend!
