"The Koubai suite was wonderful. The outdoor bath is very private and peaceful. The bed was extremely comfortable and the private garden was lovely. This is my favourite room in Japan so far!"
"First time in Kyoto and we had the best time in this traditional feeling Japanese ryoken. Staff was incredibly kind and accommodating. Their restaurant was traditional, inexpensive and very yummy. No complaints at all, would go back!!! Immaculate gardens around the property, good coffee shop on the parking lots, convenience store close by, close to a major bus route. Absolutely breathtaking neighborhood."
"A great hotel. It is modern, comfortable, clean, quiet, and in a great location. The service is among the best we have had anywhere, better than hotels that cost twice as much. Every member of the staff that we encountered was amazing. The restaurant and restaurant staff is also terrific. "
"The staff were wonderful, and the room was clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night but wished we had booked a longer stay. The breakfast buffet was excellent and absolutely worth it. The location is very convenient, with a bus stop right outside and plenty of restaurants within walking distance."
"The pavilion in Kyoto was huge by Japanese standards. A dining room, lounge room, bathroom/laundry and separate toilet downstairs and two good sized bedrooms upstairs - a western style with two single beds and a Japanese-style tatami room with the most comfortable futon bedding (it was like sleeping on a cloud). The pavilion is beautifully decorated and well appointed with a much appreciated coffee machine, full sized fridge, full sized clothes washer/dryer. It was perfect for our family of four...
"Absolutely wonderful property, exactly as advertised! The owner is very kind and gave us many recommendations on where to go in Kyoto. I hope to come back to Kyoto again and when I do I am definitely going to try to stay here again!"
"There were two Japanese well maintained gardens and stone paving hallway outside. They were beautiful and they made us feel very historical culture. The summer season in Kyoto is very uncomfortable to stay outside because of the hight temperature but, in this house, for some reason we could stay comfortably without air conditioner. It was a huge house but all the rooms were cleaned perfectly. Especially we were impressed with the bathroom. The high-tech toilets beautiful wooden bath tub made us...

"The room was excellent. Complimentary sake in the afternoons was also very nice. Location is a bit of a walk from the nearest subway, but there are plenty of nearby bus stops if you don't need to drag around large luggages. "
"Located only a couple of blocks from the main train station, this hotel was a great pick. Incredibly clean as you must take your shoes off at the entrance and roll your luggage through water before entering the lobby, and your room. The variety of hot springs baths you can choose from and the extras, such as evening noodles, ice creams and massage chairs make this a great place for families to stay. There are a number of reasonably priced restaurants nearby along with a token Don Quijote just down the street. Also on the same road as public buses 205 and 206 which take you to the tourist attractions such as the golden Pavillon. "
