“The location scores high marks, a short walk to Kyoto Station, but the meticulously maintained Japanese-style rooms truly define the experience. I appreciated the staff's attentiveness to guests unfamiliar with the language and local customs. The public bath's calming atmosphere is a welcome respite after busy days, a highlight that stands apart from larger, more crowded alternatives.”
