A little too bougie for us. But it was a very nice and clean hotel. Big nice lobby to hang out at in the evenings, they had provided all amenities needed. Staff was friendly and nice. Room was small.but had enough space to maneuver around. They have a self serve espresso machine which spoiled us. All the high end stores are all on the strip.

Fantastic hotel
Really nice hotel to stay at. Location was great and central to many things around the city. Subway can be accessed right from the hotel itself (and right next to the Mario wall in the subway). Staff was amazing and very friendly. Room fit our needs perfectly. Great job and thanks for an amazing stay

Great Hotel Location
Very nice hotel, conveniently located - walk to the train station and along the shopping district. Within steps of Nishiki market. They provide complimentary sake and coffee. Negative is that the rooms are a bit small, tho typical of Japanese hotel room. Also the windows in the room are frosted, so you can’t look out at anything. No seating in the lobby area in the morning to drink coffee, if you don’t purchase breakfast. Seating after breakfast is very nice.

Kyoto stay
In Kyoto for 5 days. Hotel was in a good location - a very short walk to Nishiki Market and walkable to Gion. Breakfast was very good-both east and west foods. Very modern decor although we felt that the hallways and rooms were to dark - our room could have used an extra lamp or two. Room also was a tad on the small side for 2 adults.
