Super Nice Modern Japanese Style Boutique Hotel
Pros:

Extremely cool hotel if you go for a Tatami room. I liked the setting near a temple and in a quieter neighborhood but not too far from central Kyoto's nightlife area.

笑顔が素晴らしい
Pros:

スタッフの方々全てとても良かったです。近隣のおすすめの飲食店やそこへの経路、バス停やあ地下鉄の駅への経路、などとても親切に教えて下さいました。スリランカ出身の女性のスタッフも日本語がとても上手で笑顔が印象的でした。また、繁華街やコンサート会場など何処へ行くのにも歩いて10分圏内でした。

Cons:

部屋に入った途端、タバコの匂いはしませんでしたが、何だか汗臭いような匂いがしたのでそこだけマイナスでした。

Tolles Manga-Hotel
Pros:

Wir hatten das Zimmer mit der Rutsche - das absolute Highlight unserer Reise für unser Kind. Zudem kam man auf einer Koto spielen.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Das ganze Hotel ist neu und gut durchdacht aufgebaut. Es gibt Tee und Wasser kostenfrei, Mikrowelle und Toaster können genutzt werden. Wenn einem Geschirr fehlt, hilft das Personal aus.
Wer Mangas mag, wird es hier lieben!

Cons:

Wir haben noch eine Nacht verlängert, weil es uns so gut gefallen hat. Wir kommen gern wieder!

Klare Empfehlung
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, sehr entspannte Gegend. Der Bus fährt 2 Ecken weiter, für die Metro läuft man etwa 10 min.
Tolles Personal, modernes Hotel mit gemütlicher Lobby. Mangas zum Lesen und Retro Games zum ausprobieren.
Klein und Groß können es sich hier gut gehen lassen.

Cons:

Es war rundum toll! Wir haben verlängert und kommen gern wieder her.

Pros:

大変失礼な言い方になりますが、日本人ではないスタッフさんもいましたが、対応はとても良かった。はさみの借用、部屋の温度についても丁寧に対応していただけました。茶室にある歌川広重の浮世絵も日本の文化を感じることができ、よかったです。
