Kyoto Jigenji Temple Hotels

"Loved this traditional stay in Kyoto, the breakfast was great and the tub in the bathroom was so relaxing after a long day of walking. The only thing is if you don’t have a car rental it can be tricky planning your day based on the bus routes. The bus stop is only a minute walk away but if you miss a bus you may have to wait a while for the next one. Overall loved staying here!"

"The staff were so friendly and helpful, we loved the traditional breakfast, they were accommodating to my husband who can’t eat fish. They have a courtesy bus that takes you to Arashiyama which I didn’t know and so glad they suggested. The futons are hard but I got used to them. They also said their onsen is tattoo friendly. But most of the place is in such a spectacular forest it was so pretty in the late autumn I will definitely be going back. "

"The room was very clean and the staff were very friendly. However you are sleeping on the floor, we knew this before coming but didn’t realise how thin the futons would be. The dinner was okay, very traditional experience but not for me (although my partner enjoyed it). Very peaceful place. Would recommend booking a private session in the onsen if you are uncomfortable going in there nude as they don’t allow swimsuits. "

"Everything was perfect , we had an upset with our car hire and Hideo came and pick3 us up from the bus station. He stopped on. The way home at the supermarket, organised for my friend to see local acupuncture Dr, and if that wasn’t enough his beautiful wife helped to prepare the dinner a traditional Japanese meal!The next day Hideo took us on a tour and accommodated all our varied interests, it was wonderful This morning he delayed a trip for himself to take us to the bus, the whole stay was magnificent!"
