Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent
"The room was spacious and we loved that the toilet was separate from the shower and bathroom sink. We received discount cards from booking on Expedia (that was a pleasant surprise). Breakfast was very good with a nice variety. Highly recommend this hotel. Best one we stayed at during our trip. Wish we spent more than 2 nights there."
