The sunrise is quite early and the windows don’t have any curtains so bring eye masks. There is an air conditioner in one room, the other room gets very hot. We discovered there were bugs as we woke up with bugs bites, not sure if it were mosquitoes or bed bugs. The beds and pillows are quite hard and only one pillow per bed. No washing machine and the house is quite away from anything. ##### ksenia Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 6, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anwar Dec 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Anwar Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Nohga-Hotel-Kiyomizu-Kyoto.h69673755.Hotel-Information) > > [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)
