    Wonderful hotel, staff very friendly and helpful, loved the interior decor and the record player in the room. The evening wine and snacks in the lobby provided a great way to meet fellow travelers.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    I really enjoyed the vibe of the hotel (vinyl in the bedroom, daily free ice cream & drinks..). The staff was very friendly. The bedroom was spacious, and comfortable. The bedroom was a bit dark and some water was leaking inside from the window.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Exceptional and unique stay, close to subway and free ice-cream every day. The staff lady with the copper hair (I should have asked her name…) was so welcoming and went out of her way several times to help us and it really made a difference to our trip. I hope to stay there again some day. Nothing

    The property was trendy, great ice cream choices, vinyl rentals to listen to in your room were a plus. Only suggestion for the rooms is an extra pillow. Travel advice from My experience: Kyoto is overrated, extremely crowded at all the areas you want to see and transportation takes longer as the lines don’t run as frequently as in other places in Japan. So it takes longer to get places and do things outside of shopping. I recommend day tripping to Kyoto and get a driver for the day and stay in Osaka or somewhere else.

    The rooms were clean, the hotel was a really cool place, and the staff was friendly and helpful.

  • Engine customer Jun 2025

    Funky vibe hotel, room was very retro but nice, had a record player, we loved the free drinks/snacks and gelato every evening in the lobby during a certain time, the vibe was nice in the lobby too while having a glass of wine on the lounge. Carpark down the road, relatively cheap 700 yen during the day, 300 yen during the night. Staff were young and friendly. Overall, the hotel had a young vibe to it which we enjoyed. Location was good with rental car to certain sites, main shopping mall only a couple of minute's drive down the road. Quiet neighbourhood as expected for Kyoto. Not a deal breaker but the room was a little dusty especially on the bedhead, desk and window seal upon checking in. Room slightly tight but it was no real issue. We managed with two large suitcases.
