My second stay at this hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. It’s peaceful and quiet and right in the heart of Gion. I love the beds so much and appreciate the wonderful public bath. It’s so relaxing that I booked a room for one night just so I could rest and recharge before continuing on my journey.

Great room and location! The staff was so nice and helpful with any questions we had. Towels, water etc. were delivered daily which was a huge plus. I like that there was a trash bin and recycling bin by the elevators along with towel drop off. Made it super convenient. The breakfast was also great with plenty of options. Overall a great experience will be staying here again.

A beautiful, clean and charming hotel. Our room was more spacious than other hotels in Japan and had a gorgeous design. The breakfast buffet was fantastic; such a wide variety of choice. Around the hotel were izakayas and other restaurants, and shops/markets were also closeby.
