Kyoto Saimyoji Temple Hotels

"Close to train station so not so close to everything else. But still walkable and close to metro and bus lines. Staff was great, we didn't opt for the breakfast and having laundry was convenient. "

"This was such a beautiful place. It is 100% worth it for the private onsen with the stunning views alone. My partner and I had a wonderful time just spending the evening in our room. It’s right beside all the main tourist attractions of the area so they’re all walkable and the bus stop is right beside the hotel making it easily accessible. The staff is also very kind and goes out of the way to ensure the best service. The traditional beds were a bit hard to sleep on per western standards but the rest of the room made up for it. If youre afraid of bugs though you might not enjoy it as there were many cobwebs and bugs on the balcony area where the onsen is. "

"As far as the staff and property and room is concerned, I give this place a 10+++. You cannot find better service and staff in all of Japan. However, the only complaint is for Americans. The breakfast is very Japanese and very limited. Also very crowded on the weekends. If you want to use the pool, you need to make an appointment for 60 minutes and the pool is always very crowded with families and children. Also, the hotel is 30 minutes away from where everything happens in Kyoto. So you should expect to be taking taxis everywhere. Other than that, the property staff and service is beyond expectations."

"Excellent location Excellent staff Take care of any requests Convenint location to the major attractions in Arashiyama, "

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Karaksa Hotel Osaka Namba – A place I’d love to return to! Karaksa at Osaka Namba is a hotel I would definitely come back to. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the entire place is spotless and well-kept. The room is quite spacious for Japan, especially given its convenient location near Dotonbori. There are plenty of shopping and dining options just steps away, and I really enjoyed the sense of safety while walking around the nearby streets. The hotel also offers complimentary soft drinks, coffee, and light snacks in the lobby café — a lovely spot to relax after a long day of exploring. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its comfort, cleanliness, and welcoming atmosphere."

"Great hotel, will stay there again."

"Clean room and facilities. Very friendly staff."

"Brilliant, stay. Beautiful location away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you are looking for a unique experience this is it. Great food (and lots of it) very friendly staff looking to please. The accomodation is slightly aged but again a hard to beat experience Can’t recommend highly enough."

"Clean room, friendly staff Peaceful and away from the busy popular neighbourhood."
