The hotel will be within walking distance of major attractions such as the Kyoto Imperial Palace, Heian Shrine, Yasaka Shrine and Gion area. Kyoto City Hall Station and Sanjo Station will also be within easy walking distance, while Kyoto Station will be approximately 15 minutes away by car.

The 313-room hotel will feature four F&B outlets, a fitness center, spa, indoor pool, an executive lounge, and banquet and meeting rooms.
