Our group of 3 loved the clean, spacious rooms and proximity to the Monkey Park and Bamboo forest. The extra space felt like a luxury after many smaller (but more expensive) hotel rooms. The Beautiful pizza restaurant a 5 minute walk from the hotel blew us away. If you like desserts, there are so many places to choose from just a short walk away. The staff were kind and accommodating of us!

Great clean hotel with very friendly staff, ideal location for visiting the arishayama area. Only thing that's a downside is be sure to check the hotels website, some other booking agencies have other photos listed for this hotel that are misleading. The rooms are much smaller than the photos suggest

Room was clean and tidy. Reasonable room size, fridge and bathroom area. Good surprise to have a microwave oven and free coffer 24 hours a day and free bread in the morning (though the free packaged juices were average). The down sides are The safe didn't work (probably no power) and was too small anyway. Our room was at the farthest end of the corridor, quite a long walk. We understand it was due to the shape of the building.

Enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It is close to Hanyk Arashiyama Station, and short walking distance from the main attractions in the area. Premises seems to be an apartment building turned into a hotel, so has the feeling of a home away from home. Simple, clean and well equipped accomodation.

Spacious room/apartment.
This was not a hotel but should be advertised as an apartment. There was a kitchenette with a microwave. There was no daily cleaning so if staying for more than 2 nights clean dry towels might be a problem. No on site eating area. You had to walk some distance across the river to find anything to do and eat. Because of this I would stay somewhere on that side of the river if I visited again!

Not a hotel...Many bugs
This place is not a hotel. It is more like a motel. The door to your room is outside near a little creek (with standing water). There is a light outside above the door that you cannot turn off and attracts many bugs. If you intend to go out in the evening or open the door at all, many bugs will come inside the room. It was a bad sign when we walked into the room and there was a can of bug spray by the door. The hallway is swarmed with bugs in the evening. My fiance and I couldnt sleep in that room, there was too many bugs that came inside. We ended up leaving that same night and just forfeiting our money. The staff speaks English very well but they disappear in the evening (due to bugs in the lobby as well). Would not recommend this place in the summer time.
