The location is perfect—close to Gion but in a quieter area, making it easy to walk to beautiful sites in Higashiyama. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Our room was clean and well-equipped, featuring luxurious Dyson hairdryers and high-quality toiletries. Breakfast offered delicious options, both Western and Japanese, starting our days on a great note.
