More than a hotel - it was a really unique experience! The service was above and beyond, breakfast was superb, the location was perfect, and staying in a tower with all the secret doors and special design was a true privilege.

The location is perfect, the hotel is artsy and fun, full of surprises with its secret entrances for elevator to the top of the tower, and to the restaurant.
The breakfast at Glycine is top-notch and a must-try. Café de Lyon Bleu is located by the Hori River running along Shikemichi.

I received about 4 types, and all of them were delicious, but the most notable one is the warabi mochi. It is a simmering and simmering warabi mochi wrapped in soybean flour and contains a moderately sweet bean paste inside. This red bean paste is also very smooth and melts in your mouth along with the warabi mochi. As always, I was very satisfied with the wonderful warabi mochi, and for me, I like the warabi mochi the most, so I made it a feast. 4種類ほどいただきましたがどれも美味しかったですがやはり特筆すべきはわらび餅ですね。 きな粉をまとったとろとろぷるぷるのわらび餅で中はほどよい甘さのこしあんが入っています。
