The hotel is lovely, tranquil, secluded. The staff are incredible and service was top notch.
Our room had a great view overlooking the castle moat, walls, and tops of the castle (of course in Kyoto by law you can't have a room high enough to view fully over the walls).
The room was very clean, quiet, and nicely designed.
We did not choose breakfast or dine at the restaurant/bar, however it looked very elegant. There are just so many places to experience in Kyoto outside the hotel.
The only thing that could make this hotel even better would be if it had an onsen!
