Very unique decor. Staff very friendly and helped me to find a Dr surgery. Has a very large lobby space but rooms on the small size.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (1,287 reviews)

Loved everything about this hotel! From the moment we walked in the ambiance was upbeat and the inviting. The staff was super friendly and they helped me with a few different inquires that I had and even helped me find a temple I was looking for when I didn’t know the name but I saw a statue while walking. The hotel is spotless and you can tell that every element was thought out. I stayed at 3 hotels during my time in Japan and this is my favorite. The food in the cafe was made fresh in house and was delicious every morning as well as the onsite restaurant. The location is super central and was close to a lot of attractions I was interested in as well as a train station. I can’t recommend this hotel enough and next time I’m in Kyoto I will definitely stay here again!!

It's just a building. Will have to go inside to see theatre. Nothing to see.
