Hotels near Kurama

This is an exceptional hotel in Kyoto, you get to experience the best Japanese hospitality. Such beautiful view of the cherry blossom trees along the river from the hotel room. Everything is well provided for in the room and local Japanese sweets are left on the coffee table for us to try everyday, it was so thoughtful. We absolutely loved our stay there. Highly recommend.

Wonderful greeting with local Mochi and a refreshing glass of champagne and green tea. We were able to check-in early at around 11:30. Thank you to the manager for her flexibility. This boutique is located by the River. Our suite had a clear view over local shrines and the river delta. Imperial Palace is 5min walking distance. Shimogamo Shrine, a 10 minute walk. Concierge booked a three day tour guide for us who took great care of us. We booked last minute and could not get good restaurant or guide reservations. Rio took care of everything. Lovely property, manager showed us other suites too, spacious and home feeling.

Room and service are all great.

Wonderful

view for Kyoto Kaede Hotel Kamogawa I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Kyoto Kaede Hotel Kamogawa, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. From start to finish, the hotel staff demonstrated reactive, professional, and friendly communication that truly stood out. 1. Communication: Top-Notch Service The staff’s responsiveness was impressive. Whether it was answering my inquiries before arrival or assisting with any requests during my stay, they were always prompt and courteous. Their attention to detail made me feel valued as a guest. 2. Ideal Location The hotel’s location is a gem. Situated near the serene Kamogawa River, it offers a peaceful retreat from the bustling city. Yet, it’s within easy reach of major attractions like Gion and Kiyomizu Temple. Exploring Kyoto was a breeze thanks to this strategic spot. 3. Tranquil Ambiance Upon entering the hotel, I was greeted by a sense of calm. The minimalist design, soothing color palette, and soft lighting created an oasis of tranquility. It was the perfect escape after a day of sightseeing. 4. Impeccable Rooms My room was spacious, elegantly furnished, and impeccably clean. The comfortable bed ensured a restful night’s sleep, and the view of the nearby cherry blossoms added to the charm. The attention to cleanliness was evident throughout the property. In summary, the Kyoto Kaede Hotel Kamogawa exceeded my expectations. If you’re seeking a blend of attentive service, a prime location, and serene surroundings, look no further. I highly recommend this hotel for your next Kyoto visit.

We absolutely adored our stay in this beautiful ryokan. We especially loved the tatami room as well as our private garden with onsen. The bathroom opened to the outside, which was a unique touch.

Everything on our stay gave us very authentic feeling - just what we wanted! It's easy to take a bus from Kyoto to Ohara and then there is a nice little scenic walk to this accommodation. They offer shuttle transfer also, but I recommend the walk if you don't carry big luggages. Accommodation itself was huge and has very nice old, japanese onsen feeling. We enjoyed the food and hospitality. Futon was actually pretty comfortable and we didn't mind the shared toilet because it was right outside our room and we didn't even see anybody else using them. There are plenty of toilets scattered around this accommodation. We were so tired of our travel so we didn't even try the onsen, so sorry, no review of that.

The host is very friendly and welcoming. As a female single traveler you want to feel safe and welcome and this place is perfect in that sens. Also I personally like the neighbourhood. This much more local and quiet residential neighbourhood might not be everyone's cup of the but I prefer it over the busy touristy part of town.
