Located 1 km from Sanjusangen-do Temple and less than 1 km from TKP Garden City Kyoto in the centre of Kyoto, Kyoto Takasegawa Bettei provides accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. Featuring a lift, this property also provides guests with Blu-ray player. The ryokan also offers facilities for disabled guests. The staff was excellent! They were exceptionally professional, kind, and proactive. The room was very comfortable, and the food was pretty good. The location is great, being in front of a small creek that has cherry trees that are fully blossomed, making it a perfect location for Sakura viewing without crowds. It's also 10 minutes by foot from Kyoto Station, and many of the bus lines that go to the most popular attractions.

Located in the sacred Koyasan area, Saizenin offers simple accommodation surrounded by mountains and many temples. Originally developed as a lodging for the temples’ pilgrims, it conducts Buddhist services every morning that guests can attend. Nankai Koyasan Train Station is a 15-minute drive away.

Fitted with tatami (woven-straw) flooring and traditional futon bedding, each room comes with a flat-screen TV and a seating area. A safety deposit box is also provided. We loved our temple stay. We had a lovely room - definitely worth it!! Our delicious dinner was delivered to the room and the morning prayers were a wonderful experience. The grounds were lovely and the location was great.

Guests stay in rooms with paper screens and exposed wood, and sleep in Japanese-style futon bedding on a tatami (woven-straw) floor. An LCD TV, an electric kettle and a fridge are provided. Bathrooms are shared, but each room has a private toilet. I really enjoyed the stay in Negiya! Room was spacious and beautiful, I particularly like the Japanese futon (敷布団), which was very comfortable. Staffs are friendly and helpful, I am always impressed by their service. Most importantly, the outdoor onsen in Negiya was amazing :)
