I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms are modern and well-equipped, providing a cozy atmosphere. However, the dining options were a bit lacking and could use some improvement. The pool was a highlight, offered a peaceful retreat, though the Wi-Fi situation was a bit annoying since it wasn't included in my rate.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with the rooms being clean and modern, perfectly suited for a comfortable getaway. The service was also commendable, though there were minor hiccups. While the location is a bit far from the central attractions, it is still convenient with easy access to public transport. The breakfast options were decent, but it would have been nice to have a bit more variety. Overall, I felt it was good value for the money, but there’s room for improvement.

I had a really enjoyable stay at this hotel. The rooms were spotless and comfortable, and the view right by the river was beautiful for morning walks. The location made it easy to explore the Kawaramachi shopping area, but it was a bit tricky getting to the metro. The dining options were a highlight, especially the tasty cream cakes, but I found some aspects of the service a little lacking. Overall, it's a solid choice for the price, just with some room for improvement.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The rooms were spacious and had a modern feel, plus the view from the balcony was stunning. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially during breakfast. The location was convenient for exploring, but it was a bit away from the central train station, which made transportation slightly tricky. Despite these few downsides, I found it to be good value for money.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near public transport and the river. The rooms were modern, spacious, and equipped with comfortable beds and big windows that let in plenty of light. While the staff was generally friendly, there were a few minor issues with service that could be improved. The dining options were decent, though I expected a bit more variety for breakfast. Overall, the value for the price was quite good, but there's room for enhancements in service and dining.
