Experience of the stay
I used this for a family trip with a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old.
I chose this place because it was a former sake brewery with unlimited sake, which was perfect for my husband, who loves sake, and it was a great decision! Not only is there unlimited sake, but also canned juices and snacks available to enjoy in the room.
Breakfast is available for an additional fee, and you can request catering to your room. You can choose the popular egg sandwich from a long-established shop or a kaiseki bento from a nearby restaurant; I chose the kaiseki bento, which was truly delicious. If you stay here, this is something you should absolutely order.
Also, the highlight of this hotel, the "Hinoki bath," is fragrant and gives you a very luxurious feeling, healing the fatigue of traveling. It is very convenient to have a washing and drying machine and a microwave in the room! I definitely want to use this again when I travel to Kyoto.
Experiences during the trip
Located in the Karasuma area, which is convenient with close proximity to the station and the trendy cafes and restaurants, making it enjoyable to stroll around. There are also ancient and magnificent temples, perfect for a morning walk.
You can reach popular matcha ice cream shops and chocolatiers within a 5-minute walk. I had dinner at a Chinese restaurant right across from the hotel, and everything was delicious and reasonable—a big hit! I definitely recommend using this place.
