Super clean and incredibly comfortable, this hotel is a gem! The apartment setup—complete with a kitchen, laundry, and separate toilet/shower/vanity—was fantastic, allowing us to move around independently without crowding each other. Its location is perfect, within walking distance of the famous Geisha district, Nikishi Marke

West Japan made a wonderful stay in Kyoto. If you’re staying long term, this is the place. The room itself came with all the amenities, including a full kitchen and the area was a 10 minute walk to Gion and other popular areas. The only con is I would say it is far from a train station, but most things were walkable or a taxi ride away.

This was a very central location to be based. Literally a few metres from a main area with lots of food and restaurant choices, 5-10 mins walk to the Geisha area, and about a 10 minutes walk to Kymiozu temple and a shopping street offering further food and restaurant choices as well as souvenirs. There were local buses available all along the street from the hotel and everywhere was easily accessed. The hotel itself was clean and beds were very comfortable. Would recommend it as an ideal location to be based for a visit to Kyoto.
