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
