I like many things about this hotel, the location is close to the train station, excellent onsen, our room and the common areas were clean. The staff was friendly but could be more knowledgeable of the area around the hotel.

Excellent location across the north exit of Kyoto Station. Room was very quiet even if the hotel is located on a major street. Staff is always very helpful. Love the onsen after a long day of walking around sightseeing. Would definitely recommend.
