Kongoin Temple

Don't let the messy reception area fool you. This is a great place to stay in Kyoto! Fantastic proprietor, large clean room and comfortable beds. It's a great choice for a budget hotel and gives you everything you need for your stay.

The actual hotel (not the rooms) was beautiful! Looked very elegant. The rooms on the other hand were outdated and a bit rundown. We had dirty sheets upon check in that had stains on them, the sink clogged up when using it. I do give credit to the staff as they very responsive to address the bed problem immediately but it just left us to wonder what else was not cleaned properly.

Travelling with 2 families 8 total (4 adults and 4 boys 9, 11, 14 and 16) our rooms were amazing very spacious could easily accommodate families of 5, with an easy to use guide for the washing machine/dryer, train stations and wonderful restaurants near by as well as a family mart less than 2mins
