Top Murin-an Hotel Reviews

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great modern hotel, very well located. Rooms are small but very comfortable. Loved their coffee station, and the fact there is a water fountain in the room. While the hotel doesn’t have a public bath, the bath is amazing, resembling those in public baths"

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the free evening ramen and ice cream, as well as the massage chairs. The room was comfortable for 2. Great location to visit Kiyomizu-dera."

Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

10/10 Excellent

"While the room and lobby were generally a high standard. The one washroom in the lobby was consistently dirty and not hygienic. Further while the hotel offers one bottle of water per room daily, the lobby nor anywhere else is it possible to fill up a water bottle with potable water. Other than these two points the stay was solid."

Dhawa Yura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent
