hotel kanra kyoto

Thank you very much for the wonderful hospitality. (Sorry for posting so late.) I wanted my old friends to experience your outstanding service as well, so we stayed here for our annual “Grandpa G Trip.” We walked from Kyoto Station, left our luggage, and first enjoyed some drinks in the lounge. After sightseeing at about four spots by taxi, we checked in at the Hotel. The gentlemen were delighted by the warm smiles of your female staff. (They’re simple like that—sorry!) Since it takes time for four people to take turns using the bath, we had considered going to a public bathhouse—one of Kyoto’s sightseeing highlights—but three of us said, “With such a wonderful bath here, we want to use this one.” So after dinner, we took turns bathing. Dinner was at Hanaroku. As always, an incredibly luxurious menu with thoughtful flavors. Since I’m the only one who drinks alcohol, this time I paired cocktails and three kinds of sake. Everyone kept saying how delicious it was. Breakfast was just as satisfying. On the second day we visited two more places by taxi before checking out. The 11:00 check-out time (extended until 12:00 for Diamond members) is greatly appreciated. Some people may not be fond of a group like ours from appearances alone, but we truly appreciate your warm hospitality.We hope to visit again soon.

I stayed here with my daughter on a trip to Kyoto. The location was great—close to the subway station, and Higashi Hongan-ji Temple is right next door, so we could visit while out for a walk. The interior had a Japanese atmosphere, and the Room felt like a Ryokan; we especially enjoyed the sliding entrance door and shoji screens. The hiba wood bath was very relaxing and helped us recover from our fatigue. Breakfast was delicious, and the four-cheese pizza was outstanding. Finally, the staff were very kind—they helped us find the shortest route to our destination and even suggested using the lounge after checkout, which felt like truly heartfelt service. I would love to stay here again next time.
