Guest reviews

Thanks to being able to walk to Kyoto Station, we were able to visit Fushimi Inari Taisha at night, and our fellow travelers were delighted. While we went our separate ways, we explored every nook and cranny of the newly renovated Kyoto Station. We also enjoyed two meals 😀 The bath was safe, comfortable, and enjoyable.

I thought the room was smaller than I expected, but we, who are not big, thought it was good.

We were able to enjoy both dinner and breakfast, which were sufficient and delicious. It's surprising to receive such service at this accommodation price.

I think it was just a coincidence, but there was a bug in the sink of the room we used this time.
