"ホテルの顔である玄関の自動ドアの電源が切れてて、手動を強要してる。 Wifiが使えるか聞いたら、ロビー近くしか使えないといわれた。にも拘わらず部屋にランケーブルも無ければ、言わないと貸してくれない。大荷物持ってるのに階段でどうぞ！と言われた。（エレベーターもあるのに）部屋の鍵が解りにくいのに説明なし。（鍵を回しながらドアを押さないと開かない）ホテルの門限23時。歴史的には有名な地である点と川の中州に建てられたホテルなので景色は良いけど、何もなくて不便だった… フロントも居たり居なかったり、呼び鈴を押すタイプ。愛想は悪くなかったけど、シルバー人材センターのアルバイトって感じだった。掃除はよくされてたけど、施設は古く快適とはいいがたかった… 眺望は良かったけど、リピートはしないな。"

Top Ishiyamadera Temple Hotel Reviews

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The nicest hotel we stayed at in Japan. Breakfast was AMAZING. Definitely get a room plan with Breakfast. You get choice of a western egg dish, plus a very high quality buffet. We had dinner twice at the restaurant and both meals were great. We also had a rooftop cocktail. The staff was very helpful with our luggage forwarding, as well. Laundry facilities were very nice. Beds were super comfortable. Fabulous location. Walking distance to Yasaka and Kiyomizu. We rented e-bikes from the hotel and had a great day and covered a ton of ground."
