Lack of Prominent Entrance Signage

The absence of a large hotel name sign increases the risk of passing by the building without noticing it

The mattress is somewhat firm, so adaptation may be necessary for those who usually prefer softer bedding

Location Limitations

It is a distance from bustling areas like Kawaramachi, making it inconvenient for nighttime activities

Rating Details

8.6 Excellent 5,265개 리뷰

5-min walk from Nijo Station, 3-star hotel. Strengths include reasonable prices, clean & comfortable facilities, and proximity to Nijo Castle. However, inexperienced staff may offer inadequate service. Ideal for budget travelers exploring Kyoto, with Nishiki Market and Gion within walking distance.
