Positive Reviews

Conveniently located near Kyoto Station

Located within a 5-minute walk of Kyoto Station, the hotel offers an excellent location with easy access to Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara, making it ideal for longer stays.
There are also many restaurants nearby, so you can enjoy trying different dishes every day.

The breakfast is very good and well worth trying.

While many guests say the breakfast is delicious, some reviews mention that the menu is the same every day, which can feel repetitive.

The open-air bath was great.

The open-air bath is not very large, but since it is for hotel guests only, it rarely feels crowded.

The complimentary ramen for hotel guests is delicious, and free ice cream is also available at the large public bath.

There are complimentary services such as ramen and ice cream. You can enjoy a bowl of ramen after drinking at nearby restaurants, or cool down with ice cream after soaking in the hot spring, making these services very convenient and highly recommended.

The hot spring left my skin feeling smooth.

It is a natural hot spring that leaves your skin feeling smooth and warms your body easily.
Although the facilities are compact, there is a good variety, including an indoor bath, open-air bath, pot bath, cold bath, and sauna, making it a great place to relax and relieve fatigue.

Negative reviews

The front desk staff were unfriendly.

Since there are many front desk staff members, experiences seem to vary depending on who you interact with. Overall, however, there are more reviews saying that the staff provided good service.

The hot spring was crowded.

In general, the hot spring is not very busy, but it can get crowded at certain times. You can conveniently check the crowd level on the TV in your room.

The air conditioning was ineffective and noisy.

Not all air conditioners seem to have issues, but some units may not work well due to aging. If you experience any problems, it’s a good idea to inform the staff and ask about changing rooms.

Some guests did not follow the rules in the hot spring.

Many international visitors do not intend any harm, but may be unfamiliar with Japanese bathing manners, which can sometimes inconvenience others. Be sure to check the bathing rules and etiquette in advance before using the hot spring.
