A glimpse of harmony 🎶
Love the location the staff was great, could use more English lessons but very decent respectful people. Enjoyed using the Onsen and my shower and bathtub were awesome. That was my first double room in Japan and it will now set the standard for comfort for my next trip. Oh, and I’m a big fan at the Japanese toilet arigato gozaimasu 🙏

This is a great affordable option in Kyoto. Steps away from the K line subway and two stops from Kyoto Station. It has an onsite onsen which was very clean and comfortable. The beds are very comfortable. The rooms are clean and comfortable as well. There are no English language options on TV. The breakfast buffet was OK, but very crowded right at opening. For the price, this is a terrific place to stay.

This hotel hits the sweet spot for an eco-friendly travelers hotel. The room and bed were spacious but there was no wasted space. It’s located near a very convenient train station for getting around. The staff was friendly and helpful whenever I had any questions.

Probably the best hotel I stayed in during my visit to Japan at this price range. Bigger than usual rooms and the hotel was pleasantly quiet. The baths were great as well and the location is perfect.

Very close off the Kyoto Metro line (Not the JR lines-separate fare is needed). But I think for Kyoto, you’ll need to purchase metro tickets to get around. Very quiet area. 2 stops away from Kyoto Station 4 stops away from Shijo Station. 20 min walk from Inari Shrine, 20 min walk from Kyoto station. 30-40 min walk from the Gion area. Only stay here if the price is right.
