Great space. Love the tatami area for the kids. It had a fridge, microwave, cooking utensils, and a washing machine which were really useful. They also replace towels daily. Location was on a quiet road but near to many shops and easy walk to the main street. They lock the doors after 10pm for security reasons so guests must carry their key card to enter the main lobby and lift lobby. They allow bag storage so after check out, we left our bags so that we could go for our brunch and continue to explore the city.

One of our best stay in Japan. Location works for us, minutes of walk to the subway station and bus station depending on your go. Facilities are great, from lobby, onsen, to our room. Really enjoy our stay. Staffs are super helpful, fluent in multi-lingual and super helpful to foreign travellers like us throughout arranging our luggage delivery to the next hotel. I would come back for Mitsui!

During our 3-week journey across Japan, this hotel was one of the absolute highlights - especially as a gay couple. From the exceptional design to the exquisite facilities and the unbeatable location - everything felt meticulously curated. It’s as if every corner of this hotel was purposefully crafted, with style and intention. We found ourselves wandering through the space wide-eyed and genuinely awestruck. Bonus points for the wonderful breakfast, served in one of FOUR beautiful on-site restaurants, and the impressively high-tech gym. Walking out of the hotel feels simply like an extension of the experience - beautiful streets with boutique shops and cosy restaurants. We especially loved the record player and curated album selection - a charming retro touch that made the room feel even more special. Also a great spot for digital nomads: the lobby feels like a trendy open-space co-working hub. Most people hanging out there aren’t even hotel guests! And when locals choose to spend time at your hotel, you know you’re doing something right. ProTip: like in many hotels, the laundry service isn't very "cost effective". But no worries! There are laundromats nearby, simply grab one of the (free!) guest bikes and do a quick trip. Laundromats in Japan are an attraction by their own.

We were there during the 'Naked' Autumn festival and enjoyed exploring the Castle grounds at night with all the coloured lights and sounds. The complementary sake and sweet treat were a bonus! We went back in the morning to view the gardens by day and see if we could spot some local birds - didn't disappoint!

Walking through the palace interior was very interesting as it was unlike anything we’d seen before! The surrounding grounds contained beautifully landscaped gardens and a cafe in the style of a Japanese tea house.

You can purchase tickets for Nijo Castle online and do remember to take the full package which includes the tour of the palace (sorry, can't remember what it's called) which housed the Daimyo back then and has since been maintained. Very nice historical trip!

I think Nijo Castle is a beautiful and fascinating place to visit. It is one of the best-preserved examples of a Japanese castle, and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The castle is known for its ornate architecture and its beautiful gardens. I particularly enjoyed seeing the Ninomaru Goten Palace, which is the main building in the castle. The palace is full of beautiful paintings and sculptures, and it gives a glimpse into the life of the shoguns, the military rulers of Japan during the Edo period. I also enjoyed walking through the Ninomaru Garden, which is a beautiful Japanese garden with ponds, waterfalls, and stone lanterns. The garden is a great place to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Kyoto. Overall, I think Nijo Castle is a must-see for anyone visiting Kyoto. It is a beautiful and fascinating place to learn about the history and culture of Japan. Here are some additional thoughts about Nijo Castle: The castle is located in a convenient location in Kyoto, and it is easy to get to by public transportation. There is a lot to see and do at the castle, including the Ninomaru Goten Palace, the Ninomaru Garden, and various other buildings and exhibits. The castle is well-preserved and well-maintained. The staff at the castle is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend a visit to Nijo Castle if you are looking for a beautiful and informative experience in Kyoto.

The first 4 floors are just museum floors - art, history of the castle, etc. If you just want to see the incredible panoramic view at the top get in the line for the elevator which skips those middle floors and goes to the 5th. Otherwise you will have to climb all the flight of stairs regardless if you want to see what's on them. Get there early though - the elevator line gets very long very quickly and the entrance line is just as bad. People start queuing up in line before it even opens.

The room was comfortable enough and well-equipped for a family of four. It was conveniently located, with the metro/bus stop being just a few steps away from the hotel, and a short walk away from Nijo Castle. The staff was very courteous and attentive to our needs. Overall, it was pretty much what we needed for a first visit to Kyoto.

The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood but still close to Nijo Castle and the Kawaramachi Sanjo for food and shopping. The room is quite spacious and the staff is helpful. It's an ideal location if you seek to budget while being able to get around Kyoto easily.

Given it was not in a part of town I would have chosen to stay in, it was nice for that part of town (near Nijo Castle & train station). And it was a good rate for an American chain hotel. I did like the "peg" concept on the wall, and did appreciate the refrigerator. Also a couple 7-11s/Lawsons w/in a block or two. Not a big restaurant/shopping/tourist area.

Central to everything within 25 mins walking or Subway 3 mins away, 15 mins walking to Nishiki Market, 10 mins to Nijo Castle. The best Korean BBQ cook at table nearby, small grocery very close, Lawsons and 7-11 close by. The staff, the facility, the room, the view, the recommendations for my Geisha Make over, ALL Superb. Staff speak very good English. They offer breakfast buffet, nice lunch, dinner and a wonderful bar. Highly recommend. I will stay here again. The price booked through my Genius level 3 for 4 nights was incredible.
