I'm sure people are complaining about the size of the room, but hey, it 's really amazing what Japanese can do with small space. The bed was like 70% of the room but I didn't feel that cramped. Decors were tasteful, amenities complete, ofuro in the hotel even. I had a good night's sleep. That's the important thing. It was... More

I must admit that it was a small room but the service was good.The room window did open in the double bedded room in which we stayed (premium level 9). The bed was comfortable and the pillows were nicer than usual. The location near to the bus station was great and because of that we able to travel any where... More

Stayed one night in a single room. Absolutely tiny, bed unbelievably hard, window doesn't open so no fresh air. Very clean though and a good location. Great for someone who is 5 feet tall or less. More

Conveniently located from the train station. Which was fantastic since we were coming from Osaka and heading to Tokyo. Transit system was pretty easy to figure out as well to get to many of the famous temples. Rooms were typical Japanese small. Has all you need and Ive stayed a few nights in these standard hotels, so I was use... More

In my tiny room I could hear every word uttered by people passing in the hall, including the cleaning staff early each morning, and frequently even their footsteps. The beds are slightly more comfortable than a slab of concrete might be. The fact that you can walk to Kyoto Station in five minutes goes a long way in making up... More

We stayed here for 3 nights between 19th-22nd April 2001. This hotel is very close to the station which was really convenient. The bed was a bit hard, but we don't really mind it and the room was very clean. The highlight or rather the thing that makes this hotel very very worthwhile is the spa located on the topmost...

Kyoto was very busy as a local temple was celebrating a 750 year anniversary so this was one of the few hotels available. That said it was perfectly suitable. The room was a little small but this is a common theme in Japan, particularly the western style/business hotels. It was clean and well equipped. The staff were very helpful and... More

I stayed in this hotel for a week during April 2010 with a friend. We had a good sized twin room, it was not huge but big enough for what we needed, the beds were good sized and there was a wardrobe and a desk. The bathroom was clean too and was similar to a wet room, with a shower... More

It is the typical business hotel in Japan, the room was extremely small, but it was very clean and the location is good since it is only a 5 minutes walk to the JR station, the price was very good, but I think I would have rather spent more money if I knew the rooms were that tiny. More
