Experience of the stay
I used this for a girls' trip!
I saw reviews saying it was a bit cramped, but it was not at all, and we were able to organize our luggage while opening up our suitcases for two people.
First, I received smooth and polite service from the reception.
It was nice to have a welcome drink, so I could relax with a coffee in the morning or after returning!
In the morning, there were free bread and waffles, which is a nice service for those who only need a little.
The guest room was spacious at the entrance, and the best part was having a bathtub where I could take a proper soak!
*Note: Since it is a corner twin, some other guest rooms might not have this feature.
The hinoki bath additive provided had a relaxing effect, and I added it every day.
The shampoo and conditioner are made from botanical materials.
If you need treatment, it’s better to bring your own.
They provided dorayaki as a tea snack, and there was also a Nespresso machine in the room, so I could enjoy coffee there too!
It was such a lovely accommodation that it would be a waste to just stay!
P.S. I often use charge spots (rental chargers), and there were four next to the reception!
They were frequently rented out at night, so I could return them at the hotel.
Experiences during the trip
This time, I focused on cafe hopping, returning bills, and visiting temporary exhibitions.
Cafes are mainly near the hotel!
All are recommended.
📍Breakfast Udon
664-7 Banto Yamacho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City
It's an Italian restaurant at night but serves udon only in the morning.
Make sure to have breakfast here when you visit Kyoto!
📍RABBIT BAGELS Shijo Shinmachi
19 Kakkyoyama-cho, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto City
A bagel shop I found near the hotel🥯
They have a wide variety of bagels!
📍Kikunoi Mugenyam, Hanbo
524 Washio-cho, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto City
A cafe-oriented shop located just before the main Kikunoi restaurant.
The matcha parfait is famous, but I always end up trying the limited-time parfait!
📍Hyde & Away Kyoto Higashiyama
672 Honkawara-cho, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto City
A stylish cafe with delicious cakes🍰
It might be less crowded if you go around the evening!
📍koe donuts kyoto
557 Nakanocho, Shinkyogoku-dori, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City
I got some donuts to take out!
There are plenty of colorful organic donuts, and I could eat several!
📍Maruki Bakery
740 Kitamonmae-cho, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto City
A local bakery mainly specializing in kappa sandwiches, I went early in the morning and they made my order on the spot.
But the pizza toast in the picture was also excellent.
It's so cheap that I could eat around 5 of them in no time.
📍Second House Cake Works, Higashidoin
I heard there was a line, so I went around 4 PM.
Since there were two of us, we managed to get in at the right time for a cakes and coffee break.
All the cakes were delicious as expected! I'd love to come back for lunch someday!
I mainly wrote about cafe hopping, but I also went shopping around Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka, visited Rokuharamitsu-ji, Kyoto Station, Chikawa Mogumogu Honpo, Ognuin Shrine, and Nijo Castle during the day, and enjoyed the digital art collaboration at "NAKED meets" at night, and also visited Jonan Shrine's weeping plum and camellia festival.
It was early for cherry blossoms, but the plum and camellias were really beautiful, so I thoroughly enjoyed Kyoto before it got crowded🩷🤍Get Extra Bonus Coins! Sign up with this user's referral code now!
