The hotel offers a distinctive 'modern Machiya' Japanese style with rooms featuring an excellent bath with a soaking tub and comfortable beds. While the service was attentive and accommodating, the dining experience was not included in the rate. The location is convenient for exploring the city but may not be near the main tourist sites.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The room was beautifully decorated with a deep wooden seated bath and contemporary Japanese decor, giving it a unique Japanese style. The service was outstanding as they even made a reservation for us at a popular Michelin restaurant in the Gion area. The location was perfect, right next to the Honganji temple and close to delicious restaurants we wouldn't have discovered otherwise. The dining experience with the freshest ingredients possible was a delightful highlight.
