"Excellent staff and location. Hotel was very nice"

"We recommend this hotel for all the right reasons for travelers. Close to everything, clean, comfortable, quiet, and a good bass camp. It is worth noting that most accommodations in Japan/Asia and Europe are smaller than North American accommodations. When we travel, we head out early in the morning and come back late at night, so the hotel is our resting spot for the evening. "

"This is definitely a higher end hotel, but it is still "affordable". The location is excellent and quiet. It is not in the middle of shopping and dining, but many shrines and temples are within walking distance. A subway station is only 2 minutes from the hotel, so you can go anywhere. There is also a hotel shuttle to drop you off at a couple of locations, but pick up is only from Kyoto station - about every 30 minutes. The breakfast option is outstanding and you should try it. The onsen is very very nice. We paid for the "view" but we ended up using very little of the "view" because we were out all day in the city already, and there were "views" everywhere already. But a room with a view does have a small balcony so if you like that, it is worth it. I will stay there again for sure. "

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

5/5 Excellent

"The hotel is only 5-10 minutes walk from Kyoto train stations and bus stops to many major attractions are nearby. The location is excellent if you are looking for conveniences. The value of the hotel is hard to beat - it has a very robust breakfast option, free noodles at night, laundry facilities, and an onsen. If you are looking for luxury, this is not it. If you are looking for "super budget friendly", this is not it either. But if you are looking for a hotel with good value and some nice facilities, this is it. I will definitely stay there again. "

Nice hotel with good view

"Spacious rooms with full length window panel. Managed to see sunrise from the room. Toilet was clean but a bit old fashioned. Breakfast restaurants have very good view and a good vairiety of food. Overall, the stay at the hotel was fantastic for my family."

5/5 Excellent

Excellent stay

"Incredible place. Hospitality was perfect. Breakfast buffet was the best on our trip. Beds were also the most comfortable. The private onsen was well worth the reasonable price. Couldn’t say enough good about our stay. "

"- We had a king sized bed, and this by far was the biggest room we had during our trip. It was extremely clean and we get fresh towels daily. The view is superb, it is overlooking the station. - Women will love it here as they have an onsen on the 5th floor! I was alone when I went there and boy was the water hot (but bearable) and all amenities were provided. It felt very relaxing. And it’s for free! There’s skin care and hairdryer and vanity station too after the bath! - I loved our private washroom! Clean and new. - Unfortunately, all rides to our destination is always more than 30 rides from the hotel…..and I did not like that as we had so much on our list that we couldn’t just do! As well, the front of the building was kind of confusing as I guess part of it was under construction? It didn’t look like an entrance. - Staff speaks English and are very helpful whenever you need anything. They also offer to hold our luggage by the lobby while we’re waiting for our check-in time. They also offer luggage forwarding to our next hotel. - Overall, my partner and I will rate this 5/5 "
