Top Nishikyo Ward Hotel Reviews

Hotel Monterey Le Frere Osaka

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel well worth it"

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely a top notch very modern hotel experience ! The breakfast included not only a selection of various egg dishes but also offers a wonderful selection of freshly baked French bakery items. A wide selection of fresh salads and fruit round out the buffet offers. Room as well as amenities are 4 star level and truly provide their guests with a very modern and comfortable stay. One of the best hotels that I stayed in on my trip."

Hotel Forza Osaka Kitahama

8/10 Good

"The hotel offers luggage forwarding. However we encountered issues completing the form via the QR code. We asked the staff for assistance completing the form as there was a glitch in the system and they were not prepared to assist. If you provide a service please test it out.so that you know what your guest are up against."

Kadensho, Arashiyama Onsen, Kyoto - Kyoritsu Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely Japanese-style hotel with every amenity you could want: free coffee, onsen, laundry, robes, etc… Spacious, clean rooms. Loved the massage I booked! (As a side note: restaurants in the area close very early. We arrived after 7 pm and had no dining options. Apparently there is dining at the hotel restaurant if you book it as a package? We didn’t add it at the time of booking so we were left with dinner options from the mini mart across the street. Word to the wise. )"
