Great place with amazing views
This place was amazing! Super clean and nice. The terrace was an amazing place to wind down after being out all day and had an included drink for each night you’re there. Will absolutely stay here again if we come back to Kyoto!

Highly recommend!
Foot spa at the roof top and happy hour (4-6:30pm) is a perfect way to wrap up your day after a long day of walking and before you head out for dinner.
There are two open-air spa areas, which get swapped for female and male daily.
I was surprised their coffee machine has so many drink options and random fact- carbonated water out of the machine was surprisingly really good and refreshing! They also provide free popsicles.

I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough. From the welcome drinks on the rooftop bar with a foot bath after a long day walking around Kyoto, to the exceptional staff, this was a great choice.
After we left the hotel and were on our way back to Tokyo, we realized we had left our valuables in the room’s safe. The hotel contacted us and were able to overnight our things to us in Tokyo, for which we are very grateful!
Great location and centrally located.
