Higashiomi Vacations from ￥20,150

There is a market nearby with good restaurants.

The room is really big with a tatami area where you can relax. You can move the beds around easily. Everyone in the front desk speaks fluent English. It has an old school key lock. It only has roughly 12 rooms. So even though it only has 1 washer, it was empty every time we have to use it. It also had an ice and water machine. It is in a quiet neighbourhood that is close to many shrines. The only minor complaint I have is there was a weird smell coming from either the washroom or the shower room. We had to turn the exhaust fan on the entire time to get rid of it. Also the TV was positioned in away such that it took me 5 minutes to connect the HDMI.

Where this hotel is situated is very convenient and in between the old and new areas that Kyoto has to offer. It is close to shops and transport. We had enough space for a family of 5.

The room has all we wanted. Being able to do laundry in it room was so appreciated.

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful (always smiling). Left my jacket in a shop and they contacted them and arranged for me to pick it up. Great toiletries provided! Washing Machine useful but slightly complicated to programme. Decor: red carpet made room dark. Ground floor frosted windows limited the light unfortunately. Fantastic restaurants close by. Kojima for tempura. Maeda cafe for lunch. Huge temple complex opposite. 👍
