elegant and relaxing getaway
Pros:

Located outside of the bustling main drag, super gorgeous hotel with stained glass details. Clean and relaxing spa for women including sauna and cold plunge tub. There’s a channel on the TV that shows you how full the spa is which is convenient if you want a more private experience. Spa provides amenities such as tea and toiletries in addition to the usual suspects. Don’t miss the breakfast buffet loaded with Kyoto cuisine. The buffet also provides western food to accommodate other dietary preferences. They have you choose a time allotment to dine to avoid overcrowding. The staff were courteous and kind. Everything was elegant and comfortable. The price was incredibly affordable.

완벽 가성비 호텔
Pros:

It's really nice place.
Perfect view, perfect service
I would love to here again next Kyoto Trip.

역대급으로 가성비 미친 호텔이었어요.
마운틴뷰 룸이었는데 채광이 너무 좋았고
침대랑 베개가 완전 저한테 딱 맞았습니다.
이가격대에서 이렇게 넓은곳은 첨이라 꼭 다시 오고 싶네요.

Wonderful Stay to Visit Kyoto & Beyond!
Pros:

Wonderful stay! Room was clean and comfortable. Spacious by Japanese standards. Staff very polite and helpful. The location is excellent as hotel is connected to station for quick transfer to wherever you may go. We visited the Nishiki Market, Gion district, Arashiyama and Uji easily. Don’t let the fact that hotel is not in main area as transit is quick and easy. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Kyoto.

Great onsen on the premises
Pros:

Wonderful experience in Sanraku Yamashina Hotel Kyoto. The highlight of my 5 nights stay was the onsen, which helped me relax after walking 20000 steps/day. I will definitely miss that ☺️

Pros:

清掃については言うことなし。連泊時に部屋の清掃を頼まないとどうしてもゴミ箱が一杯になってしまう。予備のゴミ袋があると良い。あるいは可燃物と不燃物、プラを分別できるゴミ箱にするのも良い。

観光地から離れているせいか?
非常に静かで、落ち着いて過ごせました。
シャワーヘッドがリファだったのも、シャンプーバーがあったのも嬉しいポイント!
朝食も、期待通りで…美味しく頂きました。
友人は、大浴場があり一泊だけでしたが
ゆっくり出来たので定宿にしたい…と申して居ります。
スタッフの方々も、どなたも笑顔が溢れて居て
心地良い時間を過ごさせて頂きました。
