Great find! ##### Lauren Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alla May 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Absolutely lovely little hotel, that offers spacious rooms ( hard to find in big cities of Japan). Front desk hours are well pronounced, and there was always someone at those hours. Its only few rooms hotel, so do not expect an attendances or room service. If you are looking for spacious, two beds room, this is a great find. There was a refrigerator in the room, bathtub and shower and everything you need, easy to find, great location ##### Alla Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place The room was very large and nice. Good location. Four stars because the staff was around only at odd hours. Very difficult getting help. They provided us with incorrect information about their ability to help us transfer our luggage from Kyoto to the airport. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Katie Jan 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Quiet hotel off the beaten path, HARD beds Pros: quiet, clean and modern, relatively large room, nice lighting, affordable Cons: limited front desk hours, window faces a wall, heater was malfunctioning, beds were harder than other Japanese hotels I liked the aesthetic of this hotel room, but I won’t stay again due to the uncomfortable beds. I like a firm mattress, but this felt like sleeping on a slab of concrete. That, coupled with a heater that wasn’t working, is the reason for the 3-star review. ##### Katie Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent 100% recommend hotel, tidy and clean, staffs are kind and helpful. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Corey Apr 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Clean, charming, quiet and wonderful service.

Breakfast is good. ##### Artha Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kay Dec 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our daughter recommended Hotel Ethnography as she stayed here a few weeks before us. It is a charming hotel, great value for money and highly recommended. We received a warm welcome from Alessio when we arrived and were delighted with the large spotlessly clean twin room we were allocated. Breakfast was simple, tasty and nutritious and great value at 800 Yen. The location was perfect as we arrived at the station and it took less than 10 minutes to walk to the hotel. Sightseeing was easy - on foot or by train. The Shosei-en garden next to the hotel is well worth a visit and the magnigficent Higashi Honganji temple is only a 2 minute walk from the hotel. The Gion entertainment area is a bit further away but only a 15 minute walk from the hotel. After staying in large, expensive and impersonal hotels in Osaka and Tokyo we appreciated the personal service from the friendly staff at Hotel Ethnography. Many thanks to Alessio, Tanaka and the 2 ladies at reception for making us feel so welcome and for being so helpful. We hope to come back again. ##### Kay ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alberto Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities In questa location si è nel centro della città senza remdersene conto. Silenziosa fuori dal traffico e le camere sono veramente spaziose e comode. In 3 mn si è alla metropolitana verde oalla fermata del bus che porta a gion.

Oct 9, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 駅から少し歩きますが、夜は大変静かで過ごしやすいと思います。部屋が4部屋ということもあり、朝夕ゆったりするには良いと思います。部屋のエアコンは自由に設定できます。窓のブラインドが使いにくいので、こちらは早めに直した方が良いと思います。清掃は全体的にはできていると思います。1点前の宿泊者の方のものか、一部衣類の忘れ物があったので、ベットの下はもう少し見た方が良いです。 部屋は思った以上に広いですね。お風呂も十分な広さあり。接客も気持ちよいです。 ##### ???

We booked a Superior Twin Room in this wonderful boutique hotel and the room was luxuriously spacious with a space that felt more like a junior suite than just a hotel room. The hotel only has 5 rooms and felt more like staying at a ryokan (sans halfboard) but this gave us a very quiet relaxed place to come back to after a full day of exploring. The room, and the hotel itself, is beautifully designed with modern Japanese furnishings. The beds here are firm but comfortable and the bathroom had a large bath/shower washroom adjoining a large sink and changing area and a roomy separate toilet. The bathroom toiletries are fantastic and smell driving, and the towels are super fluffy. There was a table and chairs as well as a sofa in the room which was great for having a sit down without messing up the beds. I also appreciated the abundance of hooks, cupboard space and hangers so plenty of space for hanging big winter coats as well as a bit of hand washing. The hotel is situated less than 5 minutes walk to Gojo Subway Station and about 10 minutes walk which is convenient for getting around to all the sights and although located in a quiet neighborhood, there’s a few restaurants as you walk towards Kyoto Station and within ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Gran Ms Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Gran-Ms-Kyoto.h8962891.Hotel-Information) > > [Cross Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-CROSS-HOTEL-KYOTO.h27026975.Hotel-Information) > > [Dhawa Yura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Yura-Hotel-MGallery.h34865507.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Canvas Kyoto Nijo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Canvas-Kyoto-Nijo.h59440545.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Kyoto.h1406680.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h7281376.Hotel-Information) > > [Randor Residential Hotel Kyoto Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Randor-Residential-Hotel-Kyoto-Suites.h42442448.Hotel-Information) > > [Rihga Gran Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-GRAN-KYOTO.h38953457.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel M’s Plus Shijo - Omiya](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Ms-Plus-Shijo-Omiya.h16621109.Hotel-Information) > > [Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Miyako-Hotel-Kyoto-Hachijo.h26999.Hotel-Information) > > [Suiran, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Suiran.h10345050.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-HOTEL-MUSSE-Kyotoshijokawaramachi-Meitetsu.h52041999.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hyatt Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Kyoto.h37609460.Hotel-Information) > > [Momijiya Bekkan Kawanoiori](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Momijiya-Bekkan-Kawanoiori.h15431581.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Resol Kyoto Kawaramachi Sanjo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Resol-Kyoto-Kawaramachi-Sanjo.h21926337.Hotel-Information) > > [Kyoto Granbell Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Granbell-Hotel.h18414583.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-The-Mitsui-Kyoto.h57209082.Hotel-Information) > > [hotel MONday Kyoto Karasuma Nijo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-MONday-Kyoto-Karasuma-Dori.h39192199.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA ](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Vischio-Kyoto-By-GRANVIA.h30990875.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel The M’s Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-The-Ms-Kyoto.h61628354.Hotel-Information) > > [Kyoto Brighton Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Brighton-Hotel.h919.Hotel-Information) > > [nol kyoto sanjo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Nol-Kyoto-Sanjo.h45003003.Hotel-Information) > > [Ace Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Ace-Hotel-Kyoto.h45895767.Hotel-Information) > > [SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-SOLARIA-Nishitetsu-Hotel-Kyoto-Premier.h17040479.Hotel-Information) > > [Noku Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Noku-Kyoto.h12714915.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL M’s EST KYOTO STATION SOUTH](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-HOTEL-Ms-EST-KYOTO-STATION-SOUTH.h23513455.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Kyoto-Sanjo.h4538458.Hotel-Information) > > [Sakura Terrace The Gallery](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Sakura-Terrace-The-Gallery.h9795712.Hotel-Information) > > [Miru Kyoto Nishiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Miru-Kyoto-Nishiki.h24201327.Hotel-Information)
