Beautiful building and clean room to rest after a long day out and about. Staff were courteous and professional. We would love to come back and stay at their other locations.

Clean room, convenient location, friendly staff. Decent size room for solo traveler in Japan. Would highly recommend.
This was a great starting point to explore Kyoto during our four-night stay. Just outside the most busy areas this was a quiet but walkable respite each evening. Good dining options are close by. We recommend the Sotetsu Fresa Inn.
Spacious room, clean facility, affordable breakfast buffet, free toiletries (I love their face mask!) and the property is near some of the tourist spots in Kyoto.
Great property, well located (just down from a metro stop) and good value for money. Room was large by japanese standards. Super safe and very comfortable with lots of natural light. Would definitely stay again.
