"We spent two weeks in Japan, staying at several hotels and Airbnbs, and Moksa quickly became our favorite. The hotel is set on a stunning garden, and the staff welcomed us with genuine warmth. Compared to other places we stayed, Moksa offered spacious rooms with bathrooms completely separate from the showers, plus adorable, comfortable loungewear to wear around the property. We also loved the sauna and contrast therapy sessions, which were excellent value. This is absolutely a place I’d...

"We love this villa and enjoyed very much during our stay.
This villa is right below the philosopher's walking trail, surrounded by beautiful trees and temples. There is a garden and pond inside the villa area. As the house next to us is under renovation, we are free to walk around the lovely garden. If another villa is completed, the level of privacy might reduced. I am not sure.
The villa is super clean, tidy and well equipped. It's fully renovated and well maintained.
Mind you this...

"We stayed for 5 nights after a trans pacific flight. Location was amazing - 15 minutes walking to 3 stops. The tea service in the afternoon was lovely. Wish we had done the Japanese breakfast option more. Beds we're comfortable and staff was friendly. Great bathroom amenities and black out blinds. Shower was fine. I would stay here again - easy transport everywhere."
"The hotel is superb la!!!
1. Parking very convenient next door
2. Location 100/100 to be next to Kyoto Tower, rented our Kimono there and walkable to beautiful temple and places!
3. The onsen is good too, I particularly like the one with ice neck rest, 10-20mins only.
4. BREAKFAST is the highest standard for Japanese breakfast! Has Sashimi and all options!
5. Evening supper 9-11pm Ramen is good too, hearty
Not so good part: abit tooooo crowded and packed and touristy, and the shoe area can stink quite abit tbh..

"Room is very clean. Location is convienence. 10 mins walk to all the stores and restaurants. 8 mins to a subway stations. The problem with the hotel is “NO” drinking water in the room and the drinking water located at the dining area is limited to certain hour of the day.

"Very comfortable room. Hotel has a lovely rooftop bar with fire pits, chic lobby bar/cafe, and a self service laundry. Many helpful restaurant recommendations. "
"We had a great stay! The hotel’s central location was excellent, perfect base for exploring the city and getting around easily. The room was quite small, but it was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it a pleasant place to relax after a day out. The only minor downside was the buffet breakfast, which wasn’t the best value, but overall we really enjoyed our time here and would stay again."
