"Casana Kyoto is a newly built hidden gem in a quiet residential neighbourhood near the historic Gion district. We chose it to get away from the touristy areas while having the modern conveniences of a serviced apartment, but with a traditional Japanese feel. It delivered all that and more! It's located about 15-20 min walk to the main streets and the popular Pontocho alley. It’s just 20 mins away from Fushimi Inari (1000 tori gates), and a 45 min drive of the popular Arashiyama Bamboo Forest...

"Probably one of the best hotels we have stayed in Japan! Very close to the Kyoto station and airport limousine stops. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. They offer complimentary coffee & tea in the lounge. The breakfast buffet is with it to try at least once because eating there every day is dangerous because EVERYTHING is delicious!! The customer service provided by M.Takashi and R.Niga was outstanding! They assisted us in having our luggage sent to our next hotel. It’s all these factors that will definitely have us coming back!"
