“What strikes me most is the thoughtful combination of modern design within a setting so rich in Kyoto's cultural heritage, particularly its location in Gion, near Kiyomizu-dera Temple. I especially appreciate that every guest, as a standard, can access a guest lounge with complimentary offerings, which to me, is a touch of hospitality that elevates a stay from pleasant to memorable.
