Loved the onsen! Unfortunately the room was small and pillows weren’t comfortable. Located on major street.

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto
Incredible location, minutes from kiyumizudera. Definitely take advantage of the great bar and cafe on site. We didn’t have a chance to check out the restaurant but it smelled great. Best part was walking through Gion at the end of the night to get back.
