Hotéis em Sakyo, Quioto

The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is located within walking distance to temples, museums, shopping, subway, and the Gion district in Kyoto. Great value!

Ohara no Sato is set in a gorgeous location close to Kyoto but far enough away to feel like you`re totally surrounded by country and nature. Close to the forest and mountain hiking, there is a beautiful stream the flows just in front of the property that is very melodic. The service was pleasant, although not fully accommodating of meal requests, and the gardens in the back of the building were lovely, although we did not have access to them except for viewing due to our room placement. The onsen was clean and lovely. The full kotatsu set-up in our room was great (minus backed-chairs)! The food was delicious but fairly minimal. We booked a room at peak season during the height of cherry blossoms, so our room was very expensive as to be expected, but the value for 300 USD was a little disappointing. I would not pay this again for the quality of the amenities and decor, which were average for even a budget hotel. The hard fiber-padded pillows could use improvement, the room lighting was a single harsh double-ringed bulb ceiling light, there was no sink on our floor (4 rooms), and our room was very minimal with no view as thick foliage 3 feet from the window blocked everything.
