When we arrived we felt uncomfortable and extremely unwelcome. We had booked a Club Room and the food,(what little it was )was cheap disgusting. We had an all day tour of Kyoto booked in which we paid 700 USD. Our driver was not allowed to come and pick us up at hotel because the staff had blocked him from entering the property. We literally had to hike up a hill half a mile in 90degree heat to meet our transporter. We are old with health problems. We notified Marriott as well as Expedia along with the American Consulate in Kyoto to level our complaint. I would CAUTION anyone from staying at this hotel! Very scary indeed. We checked out 2 days early to leave this hotel! Worst experience of my life and extremely scary situation!!!!

The hotel facilities were expensive to use as well as half of them not available, the Japanese restaurant was closed and the Chinese restaurant cost nearly £200 for a few appetisers for two people. The bar was something out of the seventies with the whole hotel being outdated. The cleaning staff cleaned in a haphazard manner only cleaning parts of the room at any one time and leaving cleaning products around the room

Extremely nice property. Beautiful grounds and facility. The only issue i had was i feel it is overpriced. Taking into consideration of the room rates, they really should include at least breakfast. By the way, the Western breakfast, must mean Western Japan, not the U.S. Small portions high price. Lacking in the flavor categories.

Nice hotel tucked away near a forested area
It was a large and nice hotel and near to the conference centre. It is accessible by subway train to city centre. So some travelling is needed if you wish to do shopping or sightseeing. And there is no swimming pool.

The rooms are very large and comfortable. The location is quiet and beautiful, but far away from central Kyoto. The buffet breakfast was disappointing, in a cavernous room with limited service and selection.

Property is good for persons attending conference in international conference centre. There is nothing else unique to the property. For tourists, I strongly recommend NOT to choose this property as it is too far away from downtown requiring too much money on transport and wasting time in commuting.
