Directly in front of JR Kyoto Station (Karasuma Central Exit). Enjoy a comfortable Hotel stay in a variety of guest rooms inspired by Kyoto.

Approximately a 3-minute walk from JR "Kyoto Station" Karasuma Central Exit and about a 2-minute walk from the "Kyoto Station" stops for sightseeing and city buses—an excellent location! We offer free luggage storage before check-in and after check-out. Our guest rooms, including those featuring Kyoto-inspired designs such as Kyo-karakami patterns and Nishijin-ori obi motifs, provide a variety of options to enhance your stay in the ancient capital of Kyoto.

  • Just as the Reviews said, the service was truly outstanding. And despite being close to the station, it offered great value for money. The room interior was nice, and although the building is old, it was clean. Also, even though it was a unit bath, the bathtub was spacious and I could relax comfortably. I also had dinner at Minokichi at night; it had a calm atmosphere and the food was very delicious. This Hotel was our Accommodation for a trip to Kyoto that we decided on at short notice during Golden Week, and I’m glad we chose this place. I’d like to recommend it to everyone as a Hotel worth staying at. I’m truly sad after seeing an article saying it will be closing soon.

  • The location was great, and the cloakroom and front desk staff provided excellent service. Great value for money. The Facility felt a bit dated, but I relaxed while reminiscing about my stay more than 15 years ago. This time I chose a Plan that included access to the guest lounge. You can take coffee and other drinks to go, but in principle drinks are meant to be enjoyed in the lounge. Of course, you can’t bring in any food either. Since the available hours didn’t fit my schedule, I couldn’t use it once during my two-night stay, and I regretted adding it. It just wasn’t a good fit for me, but it was disappointing to think that I paid for a service I couldn’t use.
