We appreciated the convenient location to multiple train lines making it easy to get around the city. Additionally, we used the washer/dryer in the room which worked well during the middle of our trip. One thing to note is our room did have an odd smell which would come and go (almost like stale water), but my family’s other rooms didn’t have the smell so it seemed to be a one-off situation. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

There were well organised, free activities for the adults and children, including traditional Japanese toys, tea ceremony demonstration/ participation where we whisked and drank our own matcha. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had our own washing machine in our room. Loved our stay.

Our room was covered in dust, including the ceiling and walls. The window tracks were growing mold. The bathroom was not clean, with black around the perimeter seal of the tub. The chairs in the rooms and lobby were stained. This is unacceptable in a modern hotel and could have been easily avoided with proper cleaning and management. The staff did move us to a slightly better room, but we wouldn’t stay there again.

This was a very nice hotel, easy to find and super close to a station and places to eat. When we arrived there was an issues with the luggage forwarding and one our suitcases did not arrive but they were very helpful and comforting and let me know when my suitcase arrived. The rooms are big and they have too seperate hotels across from each other. The only downside was the food options were pretty minimal. They also helped with luggage forwarding and anything we needed

Staying at the annex and walking over to the restaurant in the morning aren't great. It'll be nice if the breakfast is in the same building we're staying. Breakfast is fine, but since I stayed at Onyado Nono previously, the breakfast isn't comparable. The washer/dryer took forever to dry.

Great location!

The location was great, nice and walkable area behind a Main Street. Right by a train station and with a 7-11 and Starbucks just steps away. The hotel was quaint and a mix of modern but still very traditional looking. The rooms were a good size for Japanese Standards but the bathroom was tiny!!! It was great to have a washer/dryer in the room. Everything seemed clean but the carpets were stained in the room and in some of the hallways. Overall a good choice for the price. I would stay here again. 15-20 min straight walk to Nishiki Market.
