Rihga Gran Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Property very well maintained and clean. Nothing bad to say except that there was only one machine to do laundry on our floor and it was occupied every time I went to try to use it. Had to walk to a laundry mat to wash my clothes. The other down fall is thar the nearest convenience store was a block away."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"I have never stayed at a place like this before where leaving was hard, not only are the stuff super welcoming and knowledgeable but they also provide excellent customer services. As for amenities, you will feel at home. I truly fell in love with this place <3"

Toyoko Inn Kyoto Biwako Otsu

10/10 Excellent

"Toyoko Hotels are usually great. They are clean, convenient, and affordable, and they tend to have lots of useful amenities or people who might have forgotten to bring something like a toothbrush or razor. This particular hotel has a really convenient location that's a short walk from several train stations and from a couple of very charming and pleasant shopping arcades. Miidera (三井寺) and Lake Biwa (琵琶湖) are also manageable walks. Otsu is a lovely and underrated city, and this hotel is in a really nice part of the city."
