“This hotel places you steps from Kyoto Station, an undeniable advantage for exploring the city and beyond. While rooms can be compact, they include thoughtful touches such as complimentary tea and coffee. The on-site buffet presents a wide array of choices, and for those seeking tranquility, a quieter, larger dining space exists, though it remains something of a hidden secret.”
