"This is a very local non touristy village. We enjoyed the hospitality (even if we couldn’t communicate)
The owner helped accomadate my sea food allergy. We really liked the hot bath available in the beautiful water. The only thing I would say is that it isn’t close to anything and you have to walk about 22 minutes to the train "
"The owners were exceptional! So lovely and went out of their way to accommodate us. We have never experienced such great customer service in our lives! "

"It’s our first time in Kyoto and we made a good decision staying here Cross Kyoto Hotel. The hotel is very beautiful and the staff here are great & friendly. The buffet breakfast is superb with great selection of foods. Beautiful design with lots of seating. Recommend buying the breakfast during your stay
here for 3300 yens for person daily. "
"Excellent service, front desk staff were very helpful especially with them helping us call train station to retrieve a bag we left at the station location. We would definitely stay here again, hotel location was convenient and close to what we wanted to visit."
"Great location, just a block from the main Metro line, north of downtown but just south of the Imperial Palace, and just east of Nijo Castle; an easy walk to top eateries, shops, and temples, and easy bus or train to anywhere in the area. Lovely modest facility, at very reasonable prices, with friendly staff offering excellent service, including in English. Rooms were small (as are most in this densely settled country), but quite comfortable. Many pleasant surprises, like free daily shuttles to and from top area sites (Kinkaku-ji / Golden Palace shrine, and Arashiyama's bamboo forests and Tenryu-ji temple), and a free tasting of three kinds of sake each evening. We had a great stay; strongly recommend."
