"ホテルの顔である玄関の自動ドアの電源が切れてて、手動を強要してる。 Wifiが使えるか聞いたら、ロビー近くしか使えないといわれた。にも拘わらず部屋にランケーブルも無ければ、言わないと貸してくれない。大荷物持ってるのに階段でどうぞ！と言われた。（エレベーターもあるのに）部屋の鍵が解りにくいのに説明なし。（鍵を回しながらドアを押さないと開かない）ホテルの門限23時。歴史的には有名な地である点と川の中州に建てられたホテルなので景色は良いけど、何もなくて不便だった… フロントも居たり居なかったり、呼び鈴を押すタイプ。愛想は悪くなかったけど、シルバー人材センターのアルバイトって感じだった。掃除はよくされてたけど、施設は古く快適とはいいがたかった… 眺望は良かったけど、リピートはしないな。"

Top Zeze Ware Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei

10/10 Excellent

"Very gracious and helpful staff. The rooms were beautiful."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great service, location, and food options. Rooms were bigger than average Japan size. Love that they have laundry service for affordable price. What a gem of a hotel!"

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel. We loved the footbath."

Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, very beautiful and staff were incredible. My only critique is the mini bar. To me its an out dated design and a bit insulting, like your spending money to be there only to be met with auto charged drinks. Water is also given free so it’s a bit redundant. Besides that though! Perfect stay, 100% recommend."

Smile Hotel Otsu Seta

10/10 Excellent

"部屋が綺麗で良いホテルでした"

Toyoko Inn Kyoto Biwako Otsu

10/10 Excellent

"Toyoko Hotels are usually great. They are clean, convenient, and affordable, and they tend to have lots of useful amenities or people who might have forgotten to bring something like a toothbrush or razor. This particular hotel has a really convenient location that's a short walk from several train stations and from a couple of very charming and pleasant shopping arcades. Miidera (三井寺) and Lake Biwa (琵琶湖) are also manageable walks. Otsu is a lovely and underrated city, and this hotel is in a really nice part of the city."

Apa Hotel Biwako Seta Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful friendly. "

Biwako Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was clean and gorgeous room with beautiful lake view. Staff was very nice and the Onsen was very good. I would love to come back again. "
