My husband and I enjoyed our 5 nights at the Kimpton very much. We were welcomed by the staff, notably by Nazza, who recently joined the hotel group. The room was efficient and well-designed. We enjoyed the materials used, lighting of the room, sliding panels for privacy and furniture including the small sofa and cantilevered table.
We were happy to have selected this hotel (one of 4 we book with another couple around Japan with another couple); this was our last and best hotel in which we stayed. All 4 of us were very impressed with the breakfast quality, range and presentation. Each day we looked forward to reconvening with our friends and talking over the day’s plan. On the subject of food; we used the concierge for all but one meal; Laura was spot on with our opening night’s dinner at a Yakitori restaurant, the next a Japanese-French fusion that was excellent. Great communication throughout and it made our last section ot the trip much more memorable. My husband and I considered the value of this boutique hotel: quality of the building, hospitality service persons, evening happy hour, breakfast quality and style and location. We felt like the staff made every effort to add a personal flavor to our interactions throughout our stay.
