"The open-air private onsen in our room was the absolute best! The food was like artwork. The surrounding area was so beautiful. If you have any mobility issues, make sure you call for a pick-up from the bus stop, as it is an uphill hike to get to the ryokan. Also there are steep stairs inside."

"This is a very local non touristy village. We enjoyed the hospitality (even if we couldn’t communicate)
The owner helped accomadate my sea food allergy. We really liked the hot bath available in the beautiful water. The only thing I would say is that it isn’t close to anything and you have to walk about 22 minutes to the train "

"It's a great location away from the busy life of the city. The lake is crystal clear and great to swim in though we did not see other swimmers. The rooms are small, yet suffice. I'll probably come back again. "

Lovely!! So enjoyed this escape from everything! Private on s’en was delightful. Big space, beautiful views.
Complimentary items included face mask, hair brush (great for thick hair!), toothbrush, shower cap etc. Big range. Another place with nice smelling bath soaps.
Had two futons on the floor which were firm but comfortable. House slippers were provided and yukata for visiting the public baths.
Huge resort! So big. Getting to the public onsen was confusing but worth the walk. Big indoor...

A really lovely hotel with superb views from the bar in the 8th floor, free drinks on the 3rd floor each day with a great outdoor area. The room was small but had everything you could need and the location was fabulous , so close to trains, buses, very walkable. Right near alleys of cool little restaurants and easy access to so many temples and sites. The staff very nice and helpful . Highly recommended.

This hotel is amazing! Not only clean and quiet and very modern but perfectly positioned close to all of the metro / train stations and hundreds of dinings options. The main road is great and bustling but also take the time to drop back one or two streets and explore the more traditional stores and eateries, it’s like a different city!
I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kyoto!

I checked in around 2pm and was warmly welcomed by two friendly and professional staff members. They went above and beyond to assist with arranging my airport transfer, which was greatly appreciated. The room was lovely, spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is also in a fantastic location, making it easy to get around. A wonderful stay and I would happily return.

Hotel Emion in Kyoto offered us a great all round experience for a decent price, the public baths are a good alternative to the onsets give the price, food and accommodation were decent. Location was really good- close to most things (20-25 ) min train ride.
