Oyamazaki Town Historical Museum

I booked this hotel some months ago and I started reading reviews prior to check in. I'll admit I got a bit nervous. That being said we decided to stay the night and try it out. First impressions were that there was more space than many rooms we've stayed in while in Japan. Many features look newish and it has a full kitchen. Then things get weird. The wall paper is peeling off. There's a persistent bad smell. There's roach traps everywhere. I tried to shower and the shower nozzle fell off. My husband tried to leave to do a Lawson run and the latch on the lock fell off. The beds were surprisingly comfortable but it's also loud in the morning with people talking in the alleyway. It was fine for the night but I wouldn't stay here again.

Great hotel, great location. We stayed for 2 nights with breakfast, the only fault was the breakfast as a westerner burgers fried chicken and pork skewers and chips are not for us , no toast or scrambled egg in sight shame as this let us down.

NOHGA hotel was absolutely amazing! We’ve stayed at 3 hotels across Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. While the other ones were great, NOHGA was by far the best hotel of the three, and perhaps the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The hotel is beautiful inside, smells great and has wonderful staff and amenities. Kyoto is a city where tourists walk and hike and having a laundry room was lifesaving. I received 5 1000 yen vouchers and with the Bakery, coffee shop, and bar (all inside the hotel) they went quickly! The bakery was amazing by the way. I eat a LOT of Asian bread and I had some of the best ones I’ve ever tasted here (try the rock seaweed bread). On top of the wonderful amenities, you can ask for pretty much anything you need from the front, and the rooms had clean water dispensers (another amazing feature that most don’t have). The showers and toilets are also very modern and amazing to use. Everything down to the cups, kettles and coffee were perfect. The location is great as well, located near Kiyomizu-Dera which was the first few hours of one of our days. The hotel also offers baggage transport services through both Yamato and Airporter (same day airport delivery and currently has our bags). I may update depending on how that goes, we are in Osaka now and flying tomorrow. This is the kind of hotel that makes me want to go into the hotels business. I proposed to my girlfriend at Fushimi Inari Taisha. Thank you NOGHA for being a wonderful place to return to!
