I had questions before we arrived and they emailed with me many times back and forth to give me a lot of helpful information- it really took the stress out of some of our planning before arrival, especially since we were there over the New Year holiday (so many places were closed ). They made some wonderful restaurant recommendations and set up the reservations for us. We also really enjoyed the restaurant in the hotel. Great location, too. Our room had many amenities and a drawer full of items in case you forgot anything. I felt the room was quite spacious for Japanese standards.

I would also highly recommend the location - we LOVED the street we were on, in that it was near the hustle and bustle but also very quiet and picturesque. My only critiques would be 1) the concierges were not very knowledgeable and we were left to do a lot of our own research; 2) in my opinion, a hotel of this rating/size should have even a modest fitness center. ##### Meredith Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate Durocher Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Top notch all around.
