Great location between the busier shops and the more traditional areas of Gion. This hotel room was huge compared to some of its counterparts in Tokyo. Comfy bed, great bathroom and shower. Walking distance to trains and buses. Loved it.

The hotel is located in Gion area and it was amazing. The staff speak English and the check-in/check-out process was quick and smooth. The rooms are spacious and clean. Few steps away is the Hard Rock Cafe and the main shopping street is across the hotel from the main road. Gion is packed with sightseeing shrines and temples. Some of them have a light show at night. This hotel is awesome. I’m definitely coming back again

My experience here was alright. The room wasn’t the most spacious — I could open my two suitcases, but it was a little annoying having to walk over them and maneuver around. The hotel does have a laundry room, which I appreciated. However, just a heads up: the dryers don’t really dry. I was surprised to find my clothes still quite wet even after hours in the dryer. I wish the staff had mentioned this beforehand when I asked them about the laundry room. I later realized this might be common in Japan, where people often air-dry their clothes instead. Just something to keep in mind!

Great location and very nice and helpful staff. The minus was that the room had a window with a wall 20 can in front of it so more or less no daylight.

No room with a view but a good option for a short
The rooms were as exepected, small compact but definitely clean. The staff was great and friendly, prompt on check out(they’ll call or knock at 10 AM).
The neighborhood is ideal as it’s across the bridge from everything, a brisk walk. In terms of culture, across the bridge is more metropolitan and cosmo where the hotel is is definitely a working class community.
We also noticed that the street becomes what looks to be lady bars or clubs at night, mainly thurs-sat. So don’t be surprised if you see plenty of Japanese business men by the droves hitting up the clubs.
