“In Kyoto, this hotel struck me as a smart choice for those keen to dive into the city's vibrant heart, especially its culinary scene near the Nishiki Market. I noticed the modern, clean rooms, a welcome retreat after exploring the local culture and art galleries that the hotel itself sometimes hosts. A thoughtful touch is the option for vegan breakfasts, reflecting an awareness of diverse needs, and the staff's attentiveness seems to smooth every step of the journey.”

The room had a peculiar setup. Frosted windows meant no view. i seemed like i was in a fancy box. plus, trying to get a simple cup of tea or coffee in the room was a no-go. i had to actually pay at the hotel's cafe! really?
