Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

8/10 Good
"Rooms were amazing. They were as modern and amazing as the pictures! The bed was super comfortable. Laundry on-site was easy to use and access was pretty available. The cafe was also pretty convenient to have. But skip the restaurant! The food was bad and extremely salty. During my stay, some room near me was smoking in their room as the smoke smell filled the hallways. I reported this to the front desk but they were not able to find this person and put a stop to this immediately. This also happened the next night. We all received letters informing us about this incident but I was disappointed that the hotel was not able to take an effective action to address the smoking in a non-smoking room and area. Luckily, I don’t think the smell entered my room, but it’s disappointing to see this happen and nothing was done in the moment."

"Well designed and thoughtfully laid out rooms. We especially enjoyed the Japanese style breakfast served in our room, which we calmly enjoyed in our massive bed and matcha green pyjamas that the hotel provided. The room also had lots of space to store suitcases and clothing. As well as a massive bathtub and walk in shower. Unfortunately the onsen was undergoing repairs but we were able to make use of the sauna and plunge pool. The staff were very kind and helpful in explaining the breakfast options and getting us settled in our room."
