“When me and my companion arrived Ohara bus station, we informed the minshuku and the staff arrived quickly and picked us up. He was very nice and explained to us what we could do around the small town. It was the season of firefly sighting so we decided to explore the town at night, he noticed that me and my companion was wearing short sleeves and quickly told us to wear a jacket to protect us from insect bites, he even lend us a torch as it was quite dark on the streets. Even though we couldn’t……
“They gave me a late checkout (2 hours extension) for no additional charge. Staff tried to talk in English with me, and was very helpful. Breakfast was amazing also, and very cheap! The room is very spacious. Some things seem a bit old, and the red light in the bathroom did not work. But it was a nice stay, would probably do it again in the future!”
“Excellent Lake Biwa view on 9/F. The room in 9/F is new decorated and contains modern facilities with Japanese classic style. The private hotspring is good. The Japanese breakfast included is also good.
The bath room should have curtain for guest who is shy. The location is very peacful but no convenient store or any facilities nearby. Need to drive car by 3 minutes to the nearest convenient store.”
"Nestled along the tranquil banks of the Kamo River, this riverside hotel in Kyoto offers a serene escape from the bustling city. We were greeted with stunning views of the flowing river and the surrounding lush greenery, creating a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The hotel features morden Japanese architecture, blending elegance with comfort. We have enjoyed our breakfast on the terrace, basking in the gentle morning sunlight while listening to the soothing sounds of nature. With easy access to nearby temples and cultural attractions, this hotel is an ideal base for exploring the rich history and beauty of Kyoto. We will surely come again."
