    Nothing bad to talk about.

    The location was very conveniently close to Gojo Station (about 5 minutes' walk), and about 20 minutes' walk to attractions like Kiyomizu Dera. There are also a variety of restaurants, convenience store and grocery stores around the area. My room was clean and spacious, and the bed was very comfortable - which was something to look forward to after long days of walking and sightseeing. All of the staff I encountered were very helpful and accommodating. They also arranged a luggage transfer to my hotel in Osaka, so it was much easier to travel between cities without worrying about carrying too many bags. I've traveled to a few cities already and this hotel was probably my favourite. I'll definitely keep it in mind on my next trip to Japan!

    The size of the room is pretty much standard so it’s a bit small with 4 luggage for 2 people. Thankfully we could store them underneath the bed.

    The hotel was very clean, with friendly and helpful staff! The room was clean and had everything you needed (towels, hair dryer, mini fridge, TV, etc.). Amenities and pyjamas were provided on the lobby. The breakfast buffet was simply amazing, with both Japanese and Western options! The hotel is also in central Kyoto, and there are metro stations close by.

    Central location to explore Nagoya. Nice and helpful staff, good breakfast. Luggage storage worked well in support of our afternoon leave from the town. Overall we had a comfy, well equipped room which served all needs of a one night stay.

    Location wise was good, but personally having now been to Kyoto, would prefer something even more central to the Gion or Kawaramachi area. Reception area a little odd - a cross between breakfast room then makeshift luggage storage area later in day

    Good size room, lots of great amenities in reception to help yourself too and good access to subway stations/transport links. Very clean hotel throughout.

    The hotel was conveniently located with compact double rooms. The Japanese buffet breakfast was good and the dishes were changed everyday. There were also continental options. The breakfast area was clean and spacious. We liked that there were washer/dryer facilities in the hotel. The front desk staff service was excellent!!! For instance, a guest had left clothes in one of the washing machine and locked it. We informed the receptionist, Hung who promptly removed the washed clothes from the machine so that we were able to use it. The lady receptionists were also very helpful and gave us tips on places to see. Special thanks to the Lady who recommended’Gion’ and went out of her way to give us valuable information and how to get there. Sorry, we did not get your name but you know who you are.

    The room is a bit cramped if you have a lot of luggage, but that's pretty standard for Japan.

    The hotel's staff is proficient in English, facilitating effective communication. They generously provide a comprehensive array of amenities in the hotel lobby, catering to diverse needs. The facilities are well-maintained and hygienic. The check-in and check-out procedures are streamlined, ensuring a seamless experience for guests.
