Opened in April 2013 with brand new facilities, Piece Hostel Kyoto is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from JR Kyoto Station. It features a spacious and comfortable lounge, a tatami (woven-straw) terrace and a wall-size map with latest event information around Kyoto. Free WiFi is provided throughout the property, while portable WiFi devices are available for guests to use during their stay for an additional fee. The staff was great, they helped us deliver the phone my father forgot in the bullet train to the hostel, which at the Lost and Found office told us is going to be very difficult for an accomodation to do. The place is very clean, showers are separated in sort of mini rooms so there is a lot of privacy. There are dyson hair dryers which was unexpected for a 2 star hostel. The beds were comfortable as well. Location is walking distance from the main station and was very practical.

Facing the central shopping street of the Kinosaki Onsen hot spring area, Morizuya offers authentic Japanese-style accommodation, hot spring baths and Japanese dining. Guests can wear colourful yukata robes at the property. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout. Morizuya staff were exceptional. They delivered excellent service throughout our stay. Examples include detailed welcome/ tea ceremony, proactive offering to help us take photographs, helping us with the correct way to tie our yukatas and driving our luggages to the train station. Dinner was delicious and simply wow. Breakfast was a delight too. Will highly recommend anyone looking to stay a night(s) in Kinosaki Onsen to seriously consider Morizuya as your first choice. Thank you so much to the Morizuya team :)

A 1000 year-old Buddhist temple, Shukubo Koya-san Eko-in offers Japanese-style accommodation, a beautiful garden and free WiFi. Guests are free to attend Buddhist morning services, the Goma fire ritual and meditation. Koyasan is one of the most physically beautiful places I've visited. The train ride in and the finnicular are extraordinary. The temple we stayed in was a wonderful experience. The accomodation was incredibly tasteful and clean and comfortable. The vegan food was strange for us...Beautifully presented but not to our taste. But that is part of the experience and we still enjoyed it tremendously. We also did the night tour of the magnificent cemetery and walked though it again in the morning. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful part of the world and staying in Syukubo Ekoin Temple.
