Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent
"i've booked with this hotel twice already. immediately after my first trip i was adamant that if i came back to kyoto again i had to rebook at this same hotel. the hotel is very close to the subway station and has many convenience stores nearby. it was great having laundry available and the service was very cheap as well. the highlight of this hotel is the onsen there are many different baths. I do wish that the women's bath had an ice bath though as the mens bath did. however the onsen was perfect to decompress after a long day of walking. they have tattoo covers available free of charge as well. they also offer free yakult and ice cream during the day and night respectively. the night time free soba in the cafeteria was also great for a late night bite. their morning breakfast buffet was also amazing so much variety, definitely worth it. overall whenever I'm in kyoto this hotel will be my first choice over other accommodations. from all of my travels this hotel is definitely one of the most memorable accommodations i’ve stayed at. highly recommended."
