"I stayed here for a week and it was wonderfully easy. Self check in and out, onsite coin operated laundry, perfect location, large room with a kitchen, and friendly staff, though you will most likely not see them as everything runs so smoothly. The location and price cannot be beat. I will definite stay here again when I find myself in Gion Kyoto."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent
"NOHGA hotel was absolutely amazing! We’ve stayed at 3 hotels across Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. While the other ones were great, NOHGA was by far the best hotel of the three, and perhaps the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The hotel is beautiful inside, smells great and has wonderful staff and amenities. Kyoto is a city where tourists walk and hike and having a laundry room was lifesaving. I received 5 1000 yen vouchers and with the Bakery, coffee shop, and bar (all inside the hotel) they went quickly! The bakery was amazing by the way. I eat a LOT of Asian bread and I had some of the best ones I’ve ever tasted here (try the rock seaweed bread). On top of the wonderful amenities, you can ask for pretty much anything you need from the front, and the rooms had clean water dispensers (another amazing feature that most don’t have). The showers and toilets are also very modern and amazing to use. Everything down to the cups, kettles and coffee were perfect. The location is great as well, located near Kiyomizu-Dera which was the first few hours of one of our days. The hotel also offers baggage transport services through both Yamato and Airporter (same day airport delivery and currently has our bags). I may update depending on how that goes, we are in Osaka now and flying tomorrow. This is the kind of hotel that makes me want to go into the hotels business. I proposed to my girlfriend at Fushimi Inari Taisha. Thank you NOGHA for being a wonderful place to return to!"
