Highly recommend! Stayed in central Kyoto at first but it was too crowded so switched to this hotel. If you wanna explore Kyoto this is a little bit further from things, but the subway is near and incredibly easy to get around with. This area is stunning. Beautiful nature and hotel is right by it + the river!

Amazing view and wonderful staff
We were only at the hotel for one night, but really enjoyed the stay. The view was wonderful, the staff was so kind and helpful, and the bed was like sleeping on a very supportive cloud. We only wish we could have stayed longer

Wanted a hotel near Arashiyama monkey park and bamboo grove for some hiking. The hotel is small but was clean and the room was very comfortable. The bed was soft and the air conditioning worked great. Room had a great view of the water. The staff, while they didn’t speak English, were very friendly and carried my suitcase upstairs and downstairs for me.
They’re putting in an elevator next year. I’d definitely stay again.

Serene and charming
We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! Our view of the river and the mountains was just stunning! The service was exceptional. Everyone was so kind.
They added breakfast was a really nice touch. We had never had a traditional Japanese breakfast before so we were unsure what to expect. The fish was delicious!
The room could use a few more garbage cans (maybe in the bathroom?) and hooks in the bathroom to hang your clothing and towels. Other than that, it was spectacular! I loved having my morning tea looking out the window.
Top tip: you must make reservations for dinner in advance. There are a few places that are open for the evening . We loved ‘Mama’ restaurant right down the street.
We will be back- I loved all the activities!
