"We had 3 fantastic stays at the Riverte Kyoto Kamogawa. Very service minded staff that took good care of us from arriving to checkout. Room was spacious, nice and comfortable - and the hotel has a small rooftop terrace. Area is quiet and nice, but with a selection of amazing small restaurants close by. We will stay here again when we visit Kyoto. "

"We spent two weeks in Japan, staying at several hotels and Airbnbs, and Moksa quickly became our favorite. The hotel is set on a stunning garden, and the staff welcomed us with genuine warmth. Compared to other places we stayed, Moksa offered spacious rooms with bathrooms completely separate from the showers, plus adorable, comfortable loungewear to wear around the property. We also loved the sauna and contrast therapy sessions, which were excellent value. This is absolutely a place I’d...

"Beautiful space with private outdoor soaking tub (for one person). It's a quiet space with the charm of authenticity. Don't expect the staff to have much English. We had some miscommunications and ended up relying on Google Translate. "

"The hotel is older but in a very tasteful way.
Our room was pleasantly large and had a lovely view of trees and pond.
We visited the chashitsu ( tea house) , so elegant.
I can't speak of breakfast or dinner both seemed a bit expensive. So we ate at close by places.
Enjoyed our time in Kyoto sorry to leave."
"we had an amazing time at Seryo!! the staff was immediately incredibly welcoming and showed us all the amenities and our wonderful room with a perfect garden view. the food was incredible and they even adjusted everything to be vegan for me!! we unfortunately had a less than desired experience at a different ryokan right after our perfect experience at Seryo which just affirmed that Seryo was the right decision!! highly recommend and would love to go back again in the future! "
"The staff was very nice and very friendly and helpful as they all are in Japan.
The location of the hotel is very central so we were able to go into different directions for a lot of the tourist attractions that we wanted to hit.
The area is safe and quiet and peaceful and right across from the imperial Palace.
I liked everything about this hotel, except
The pillows
The pillows in many hotels in Japan feel like you are sleeping on padded bricks. I am not exaggerating, and I mentioned it to the gentleman in the front desk and he recommended that I wrap the padded bricks with bath towels.
Now they felt like padded bricks wrapped with bath towels
