We loved our time here. The location was really nice and the stuff was affable during the whole stay! Kyoto shiyakusho-mae subway station is not very far from the venue.

Perfect hotel with excellent breakfast. View from our room was wonderful. It's 5 mins walk to the center. Loved that they had onsite restaurant La Locanda, no need to go somewhere else.

A former resident with language/knowledge. Seek the River view room and you'll love it !
The first floor entry sign for the same priced downstairs restaurant for Washoku breakfast was confusing. Closed in 2011 ?

The hotel is located on a picturesque river where you can enjoy a nice walk or run. the view of the river from the rooms and balcony is beautiful. the Gion district and several restaurants and shops are within walking distance. the service is exceptional and the staff make you feel special. the room and ensuite bathroom are clean, spacious, and well-appointed with all the necessary amenities. the breakfast has a wide variety and is delicious.
The initial check-in procedure can be better organized to avoid confusion for the guests.

The rooms were of a good size for a Japanese Hotel, and many of the front desk staff spoke good english.
The air conditioning system did not work particularly well

I recently stayed at a hotel in Kyoto and I must say, it was an amazing experience. The location was perfect, right next to a small river and within walking distance to all the main sites in the city. After a long day of sightseeing, it was the perfect place to crash. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the bathroom was beautifully designed. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options, and the view from the restaurant was breathtaking. The facilities were outstanding, with activities like bike rides and curated artwork on every floor. I couldn't have asked for a better hotel experience.
I did notice that the breakfast service could use some improvement. There were delays in getting our toast, and it took quite some time for our order to be served.

Good location, pleasant room.
Mediocre staff, hotel is old fashioned in its facilities. For example there is no possibility to print out boarding passes. Breakfast is expensive for what it offers. It is as if time stood still here: the hotel is 20 years behind in its management and does not really provide a hospitable environment.
