“Cost performance is super high.”
Located about a 5-minute walk from Shijo subway station, the geographical location is great. There are Hankyu Line and Karasuma Line, making travel convenient. Overall service is excellent, and room cleaning can be requested at the front desk as needed. The room size is considered large for Japan, the cleanliness is excellent, and the facilities are also very nice, with a bath that is spacious and comfortable.

“A quiet hotel right in the heart of Kyoto's bustling district.”
Although it is located in the bustling shopping district of Shijo in Kyoto, it has a quiet setting. The hotel staff, especially the breakfast staff, have refreshing smiles and are very likable. The breakfast includes dishes characteristic of Kyoto and delicious bread representative of the region, and I highly recommend it. This time, the room I had was a bit on the smaller side.

“Used for business trips.”
This is my second time using this service, and it was good again this time. I forgot to take pictures because I checked in late at night. It's very convenient to be able to check the laundry situation in the room and to be close to Shijo Station. I think the quiet environment is also a factor that makes it comfortable to stay.

Since I chose a high-priced accommodation for the second day, I looked for an affordable place for the first day and ended up here. The service was beyond the price, and the hotel was very clean. It was also close to a convenience store, and the staff's service was very courteous. I'm glad I chose this place.
