  • Dining with serious credentials

    Five restaurants led by an award-winning Executive Chef set the tone.

The hotel is beautiful and has a very comfortable room with a high-quality mattress. The staff were extremely helpful, and I was impressed by everyone's hospitality and courtesy; they were all friendly. If you're looking for a classic place, stay there. It's about 15 minutes from Kyoto center, but you won't be disappointed. Thank you for making my stay very pleasant.
