100% worth it!

Cannot emphasize enough how AMAZING this hotel is! We had originally reserved a 3 night stay and upon an hour at the hotel we knew we wanted to extend our reservation and snagged the last room for an additional night. From the immaculate attention to detail, to superb customer relations and ideal location you simply cannot top it. Worth every penny.

Great hotel

It’s a very quiet hotel and convenient location. Walking distance to most attraction. We stay in the room with lounge access with free alcohol drink and snacks. It’s the best place to spend a bit time with friends after dinner. Also got roof top bar with beautiful view.

We loved this hotel. It is extremely well located, the staff was amazing, and the breakfast was spectacular. The private ofuro baths are highly recommended. We will be back without a doubt. Since we made our reservation with Expedia, we got a lot of complimentary drinks and snacks. The guest lounge is beautiful and full of delicious food options. We will go back without a doubt.
