What a gem!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Marufukuro. A real gem of a boutique hotel. Attentive service, gorgeous bar, close to a metro stop and beautiful rooms. It was the highlight hotel of our 2 weeks Japan trip. Our guest relations manager Chou was super friendly and knowledgable. The hotel is less than 5 mins walk to Shichijo Station on n the Keegan line, with easy access by train directly to Gion, Pontocho, Kiyomizu Dera Temple, and Inari temple. As well, the same line goes all the way to Osaka. It’s a straightforward walk of 15 mins to Kyoto station for Shinkansen, or a quick taxi ride.

Japan has some of the best customer service in the world, but the staff here stood out. Andrea gave us an impromptu tour of the facilities and went out of her way to help us. The attention to detail when it came to the decor was outstanding. If you love Nintendo, this is the place to stay. It definitely surpasses a 5 star hotel. It deserves a 6!!!!
