Higashiyama Ward

"Great host and communication. The house is cozy and it had everything we needed. The air conditioning was great in the Japanese heatwave. In just under 10 minutes, you can walk to some of the nicest streets in Kyoto with temples and cafes. However, everything around there closes quite early and becomes really quiet - so be aware if it’s not your vibe. Not a big deal for me, though. The only real issue is that the property is not very accessible: the closest bust stop is about 15 min away and...

Top Otsu Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"There are lots of amenities here -like the public bath and the big fancy breakfast- but assume you will need to compete for every resource, from a breakfast table to a shoe locker. The lobby felt like a combination of a college dorm and an airport gate. Things are generally good in your room, and all supplies were in order. Walls are thin enough I was woken up by my neighbor’s alarm every morning. Breakfast waits at 6:45 AM were about 45 minutes. I spilled some hand wash soap on the area in front of the sink and learned that the floor was not nearly as clean as it appeared."

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were amazing. We were greeted by an employee who helped us check in, serving us a cappuchino and croissant while we completed the necessary online forms. The checkout was done through a machine (similar to our hotel in Tokyo). An employee saw us starting the process and quickly came over to help us. Everyone was very friendly and helpful - certainly made our stay delightful. The hotel was near Kyoto station, though we regretted walking from the station and dragging our suitcases. We took a taxi for 1900 yen at the end of our stay. The breakfast was amazing - so many choices and honestly, I enjoyed everything that I tried. The room was very nice with a comfortable bed. I enjoyed being able to control all of the lights from my nightstand. I wish the shower had been a few degrees hotter, but that is really nitpicking."

Yumotokan

10/10 Excellent

"Fasntastic place to relax at. We were picked up at the train station and ushured into a relaxing lounge which we had unlimited access to for the duration of our stay, including the drinks and snacks, The check in process was very smooth and our bags were waiting for us in our room when we got there. We booked the in-room Onsen that we practically lived in. It was initially a bit hot for our liking but the staff were able to adjust it for us. We had an amazing nine course dinner that showcased the local produce. and the breakfast buffet was also briliant. Overall a very relaxing and comfortable stay with fantastic staff and would definitely come back."
