Pros

Situated on a quiet street while maintaining central location

Eight restaurants within 984.3 ft of the property

Comprehensive safety systems including 24-hour support

31 mile distance from nearest airport (Itami)

“The hotel's location definitely shines, placing you steps from Gion and with quick access to transport links. I see the appeal of having a washing machine and a full kitchen in Kyoto, especially for longer stays. However, potential guests should be aware that addressing noise concerns may present a challenge.”
