"The private room was quite large and the service was excellent. I love that they have an assortment of board games in the common area, as well as a dart board! Minor gripes: * There are only two washing machines and two dryers. On at least two occasions I had to reschedule my laundry chores because both were occupied at the time. Fortunately, there is a separate laundromat mere steps away from the hostel. * Skip the breakfast if you have to pay extra for it. It’s literally two slices of...

"We stayed in a 4 dorm, 2 adults and 2 kids, for 4 nights. The hostel was great for us in terms of location, cost, and room space. They serve some amazing lunch and dinner options there too! The hostel was one of the quietest I've ever stayed in and the facilities were all fairly clean and well equipped. "

"Our family (2 adults, 8yr old son) stayed in a private 2 double bed room for 6 nights in March 2025. We were extremely happy with our experience. The room was very spacious and the bathroom/shower rooms were wonderful. I would definitely consider staying here again and recommend it to small families. There is a shared lounge and kitchen which we utilized to cook additional veggies as we found it lacking when eating out. There are two induction ranges and pots of water come to boil very quickly....

"The hostel has a great location, is budget-friendly, and feels safe and secure. It was a comfortable stay overall. However, I was a bit disappointed that the staff kept speaking to me in Chinese, even though I communicated in English the entire time. While I understand a little Chinese, communication would have been better in English."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

"This is such a quiet oasis, walking from the Kyoto station just over the bridge. Need to take a taxi or bus to other locations but the hotel rooms and amenities here are so worth it. "

"Candeo is an excellent hotel, just a 5-minute walk from the metro station. It also offers a Limousine bus service to Osaka area airports at 8:00 am, 11:00 am, and 3:00 pm. Kids especially enjoy staying here. The rooms are fantastic, featuring beautiful city views. The hotel is clean and well-maintained, though it doesn’t have a dresser if you're traveling with a lot of clothes; there’s space for 2-3 pieces of luggage. I stayed in an Executive room, which was great because it included access to the Executive Lounge. The lounge is open from 4:00 pm to 9:30 pm and can be enjoyed with friends and family. The lounge offers a selection of gin, vodka, and Japanese whiskey, while kids can enjoy apple and orange juices, sparkling soda, and tonic water. There’s also a variety of cookies, snacks, a cheese board, and cold cuts like salami and ham. The sauna area is a highlight, featuring cold and warm sitting pools for a relaxing sauna experience."
