Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast is not always included — Some guests note that breakfast is not part of the deal, though there is a restaurant on site and several coffee shops nearby for an alternative morning meal.
  • Compact rooms — Standard double rooms are described as 'neat and compact' – typical for central Kyoto, but travellers used to more space may find them snug.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel operates a strict no-pets policy, which is worth noting if you plan to travel with an animal.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:59, so if you arrive after midnight you will need to make alternative arrangements.

“The stay was very enjoyable and suited our needs. The room was tidy and compact, with an electric kettle and fridge. The quiet location was a highlight, with shops and a market close by. The hotel sits right in front of a bus stop. Service was faultless and the free Wi-Fi worked in every room.”
