Top Kozokunosato Museum Hotel Reviews

Yumotokan

10/10 Excellent

"Real hot springs in this place . Close to kyoto and osaka , took train to visit these cities . Was great !"

Toyoko Inn Kyoto Biwako Otsu

10/10 Excellent

"Toyoko Hotels are usually great. They are clean, convenient, and affordable, and they tend to have lots of useful amenities or people who might have forgotten to bring something like a toothbrush or razor. This particular hotel has a really convenient location that's a short walk from several train stations and from a couple of very charming and pleasant shopping arcades. Miidera (三井寺) and Lake Biwa (琵琶湖) are also manageable walks. Otsu is a lovely and underrated city, and this hotel is in a really nice part of the city."

moksa Rebirth Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is the perfect serene escape from the bustle of Kyoto city. The staff are incredible, all spoke English and were so helpful and really made us feel welcomed and cared for the whole time. The included drinks are delightful and we were able to sample the full tea selection as well as several alcoholic beverages even during our dinner- which I would also highly recommend booking!"
