"It was very special experience to stay at Japanese traditonal house with my family. It was a little bit far from the main sightseeing site but we were ok because we had a car. Kinkakuji was especially awesome."
"Lovely 100-year old house repurposed as guest house. Modern additions such as air con and shower room added around original building with wooden sliding doors and futon beds. Lovely, helpful owners met us and showed us everything - thank you!"
"The Koubai suite was wonderful. The outdoor bath is very private and peaceful. The bed was extremely comfortable and the private garden was lovely. This is my favourite room in Japan so far!"

10/10 Excellent
"Everything is clean and tidy, very kind and bright staff. The onsen was also nice. Although the room was a bit small, we had excellent time."
"Beautiful hotel, lovely amenities, and the *best pillows. We had an incredible view of the city and train station, including the Shinkansen, which was an unexpected bonus. Location was fabulous for getting around on the trains. Really made our trip to Kyoto! "
"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Koko Hotel. Great great stay (especially with kids) as the room was super spacious and had everything we needed. The location was amazing and pretty much everything we needed was within walking distance and there was an amazing coffee shop right out the front door. Only issue regarding cleanliness was the carpeting probably needed an extra vacuum and some of the cutlery wasn't cleaned well, but this was really minor and otherwise everything was perfect. The staff were super attentive and helpful. Would not hesitate to stay here again!"
"The hotel location is great. The train is a short walk and there’s even a direct pathway. Not crowded part of town so that was nice too. Hotel is clean and the amenities are above and beyond. Breakfast buffet was also good. Service was top notch. We dropped our luggage off early and it was in our way by check in time."
