Really enjoyed this hotel. Decor of the rooms is lovely - I won’t describe it, just look at the pictures. There is an entrance to the subway very close to the hotel and from there one easy stop either to Kyoto station or to the main shopping street in Kyoto. You could walk to both areas easily too, but the weather during our stay was a mixture of mainly very hot with occasional torrential downpours so the subway was a quick and easy alternative. On first entering the dining room for breakfast, the buffet looks quite small compared to some hotels, but actually there is a lot there and an excellent variety of both western and Japanese options. In keeping with the minimalist decor, they do not put out huge quantities of food, but have smaller quantities which are very regularly ‘topped up’. The food itself is very high quality. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfasts. Staff were all lovely and very helpful. My wife had a massage in the spa and enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended.
