“Satisfaction”
Excellente situation, accueil impeccable, chambre très correcte.
“Excellent hotel location”
Hotel is in excellent location, convenient to Karasuma subway station. The rooms are spacious, an exception in Japan, with everything one needs. I highly recommend this hotel. The have internet access in the lobby free of charge.
“Would definitely like to stay at that hotel again”
Excellent service. The staff members are all very polite and helpful. The location is really convenient. Definitely would like to stay at that hotel during my next visit.
“Excellent location!”
This was a great hotel -- located in a "business-y" area of Kyoto. You are right next to a subway stop, as well as main bus stops to get you anywhere you'd need to go in town. Plus, you're close to the main Kyoto station, which has links to neighboring towns via the JR and other rail lines. Somewhat small hotel room, but on par with London/Euro city hotels. Smallish bath, but all very clean. Very friendly staff -- ask for a tofu restaurant recommendation: the lady at the front desk gave us a great one! Right near the big Kyoto shopping area, too. And there is a Starbuck's attached for morning coffee!
“Recommended”
Good, clean hotel next to Shijo subway (two stops from JR), easy to find, close to shopping area. Rooms were clean, good size and quiet. Beds were comfortable though pillows a bit on the small side. Free internet access in the lobby. Staff courteous and spoke English well. Would stay again and would recommend to others.
“Great location”
We stayed here for one night in November. The hotel is very easy to find, right next to the subway station, only two stops from Kyoto station. The location is great - very near to the Nishiki market, and an easy 15 minutes walk to Gion corner then on to Kyomizu-dera. There are lots of bars and restaurants around Pontocho. We didn't actually spend that much time in the hotel, but it was friendly and comfortable. Maybe a little bit old-fashioned, but that's no complaint and no problem. One special thing was to get up early, take the subway to Kyoto, then the JR line for two stops to Inari. Spending a couple of hours at Fushimi Inari in early morning was wonderful.
“Excellent value for the money”
Perfect service, staff very helpful with information about off-site restauarnts, stores, attractions, etc. Free broadband internet service available 24/7 in good lobby location. Starbuck coffee shop on site.
“très bien situé”
Proche de la gare, des lieux touristiques.
“Le meilleur rapport qualité prix de Kyoto”
Très bien situé près de l'artère commerçante et a 10 mètres de la sortie de métro. Hôtel très confortable avec grande chambre ce qui n'est pas fréquent au Japon.
