You get the best of Kyoto with this hotel. Located at the top of Mount Hiei, you get amazing views, while being close enough to the city. They offer several shuttles from and to the hotel making it easy for you to spend the day in the city.
The staff was amazing!!! Extremely polite and courteous. They went out of their way to assist us, and make sure we were happy.
The food was incredible good too. They offer a five or six course french style dinner that was not only beautifully presented, but delicious. The breakfast was very good as well, and included fresh pastries and croissants.
