Higashiyama Hills

As we wanted to stay in Kyoto for a whole week, we put a bit more research into booking this accommodation up front and it totally payed off. The Hotel doesn’t have a counter and check-in/out is self service. For us this was totally fine and we hardly met anybody there which makes it a really calm place. Other comments mentioned that they didn’t have enough towels for a longer stay, this was not our case, we had lots and lots of towels in different sizes right under the sink. Yes, the rooms will not be cleaned during the stay, but this is something I find unnecessary anyway for a couple of days. Our room was the one on the ground floor right next to the lounge with free water and amazing coffee from a nespresso machine. The room is so beautiful with furniture made out of real wood, indirect lighting and even the garden (not accessible) can be illuminated. The shower, toilet and sink are separated, which makes staying as a couple much easier. Location wise it’s really perfect, close to subway/bus, close to lots of sights + calm and charming by itself. We loved to stroll around the little river. If you are planning to stay in Kyoto and this accommodation is available, search no further!

Great stay in a comfortable and very clean room, with facilities that looked very new. The property is just a minute’s walk away from the train station, and near several bus stations that brought us to the places of interest nearby.

Really comfortable and clean nice and spacious. Great location walking distance to alot of attractions and buses and subways close by for further travel.
