Frommer's "Just across the street from Nijo Castle and offering rooms with castle views, this hotel has one of the most eye-catching lobby lounges in town." Full review

Star Service "While its dated exterior and not-much-newer interior do little to inspire, the reliable cookie cutter service pattern of Crowne Plaza is fully in place." Full review

Although rooms on higher floors afford nice rooftop and mountain views, be sure to request one facing Nijo Castle.
