It's also worth asking for a seat next to the window so you can enjoy the view of the beautiful zen garden below.

The rooms were beautiful - request a high floor (floor 4 or 5) overlooking the zen garden & museum..

It is stylish, very clean (like everything in Japan) and the staff were very polite and helpful.

So while it LOOKED very cool, in fact it was not as useful or comfortable as it should have been in a place charging this much.

The interior design of HR was very chic and modern.

Considering this extra charge I expected to see some kind of "spa" (along the lines of the Grand Hyatt in Seoul) but was surprised to see a fairly functional, rudimentary shower block and sauna- no real "Zen" touches like you might expect from seeing the rest of the property and the whole Kyoto/Japan hot spring obsession.

Japanese style light fittings, beautiful kimono headboards and elegant blinds combine to create a calm, cosy and cool environment.
