Hotels near Chohoji Temple in Nagaokakyo

The room is small, but clean enough, very close to the station, the hotel restaurant has delicious fried chicken

Everything was fine until the end. In comparison to other hotels I stayed at throughout my trip, this one is cleaner and more spacious. It's close to Tokyo Station, so it's easy to get to other areas, even if it took me quite a while to figure out their operation and routes. The hotel will be cleaned one time every three days. So, generally, it will not be cleaned throughout your stay. However, you can request that they change the towels every day. The check-in and check-out processes were straightforward, however the machine did not accept my Visa card - this is the only site in Japan that did. The hotel also helped you store your belongings before and after check-in/out. However, I was discriminated against by one of the hotel's employees when sending the luggage after checkout. Before me, he stayed near the check-in/checkout machine, assisting a Japanese couple with the checkout procedures and handling the bags. So I waited, thinking he also approached me to assist. However, after assisting the couples, he did not approach me and came back to the counter. Then I beckoned him to his assistance. Instead, he hailed me with his fingertips to come over his counter, rather say anything like “Please come over the counter to do the procedure”. It shocked me. Furthermore, the way he handled my luggage request was really unpleasant. When I asked for his name because I didn't see it on his tag, he became more agitated. So that is why I requested him to write his name on the receipt card. How is it possible for him to treat people so differently? Should Japanese people be treated more respectfully under the hotel's policy? After my interaction with him, all of my positive feelings about the hotel vanished.

This time I had business in Nagaokakyo and used it for the first time because it was a nearby inn. It was close to the Hankyu station, so it was easy to get to on foot. The exterior of the building is Japanese-style, and the interior and rooms are Japanese-style modern. Dinner and breakfast are not available. Shuttle service is available, and parking is available upon reservation. Also, when I go to Kyoto, I would like to use it as a couple.

Had everything I need, entrance built into the station so very easy to catch your train in the morning. My walk to my room was super long though, I’d advise anyone to request a room close to the elevator.

First off, I’d like to call out the fact that this hotel just opening at the end of 2022, so everything is relatively new in the hotel and quite modern. The rooms are generous in space and not what you’re use to in most hotels in Japan. Even as a select service hotel, you’ll find a fitness center that rivals a full commercial gym and an on-site restaurant that offers food that you don’t normally expect in a hotel. The hotel also has washer/dryers on the bottom floor. There are 4 dual washer dryer machines that you can actually monitor from your in-room TV. Just go to Laundry Availability and it will tell you if there any washers available and how long it will take. Awesome feature so you don’t have to keep running back down to check. If you don’t mind a good walk like my wife and I, then this hotel is perfect for you since it’s location is minutes away from several key points of interest including Kyoto Station, Nishiki Market, the Gion district, Kyomizu-dera Temple, and the Kamo River. If you’re not really a walker, don’t fret as the Gojo train station is nearby as well as several bus routes.

I and my mother stayed there for one night 20000 yen per person, with dinner and breakfast. It was a very comfortable stay. This was more like a hotel, except that we needed to walk around without your own shoes (without getting dirty feet) inside. It was fully booked on that day. We had an earlier check-in, which mean that we could enjoy our relaxing private Onsen bath without standing in line. We also tried the large onsen baths later in the evening after a long walk in the beautiful Arashiyama area nearby. It was hot, but great. One of the baths was outside in a Japanese garden. We got warmed up from the inside out, and had an ice popsicle before we went up to our room for good nights rest. We also enjoyed a huge dinner and breakfast, true local cuisine with typical taste in Kyoto that supposed to be refined and ”delicate” - you shouldn´t expect any strong taste, and correctly cooked. This supposed to be a 3-star-hotel, but the amenity was completed. We didn´t miss anything here. We thought the staff at the front desk were not amazing, but definitely not poor. We didn´t need to deal with them so much as we had good information in written form. Everything was clean and pleasant. Had absolutely nothing to complain. We would definitely love to come back again. My rating is 4 - not more or less. I certainly see that they still have a room for improvement, but overall I didn´t personally understand all the poor reviews.

If I didn't move from the Urbain hotel, which is very close by, I think I will give this hotel a 5 star. However, the two other hotels I stayed before all had onsen public bath, as well as decent laundry service. There is no public bath here, the laundry machines are wildly outdated, and they charge more than other hotels. I saw more foreign guests than in other hotels. Maybe the only thing that's beyond average here is their service.

The water in the bathroom is very weak and bathing takes a long time, which is very unpleasant. However, there is a bus stop near this hotel. It is very convenient to go to the JR station. The streets nearby are also quiet. Unfortunately, there are no restaurants. There is only a Royal Host Western restaurant. The service is very good and the food is delicious.

is it a comment when it was just done? It seems to be dry, but it is a kind, polite and satisfying hotel. The facilities are substantial and the large communal bath is nice. Please note that the bathhouse is changed every day for men and women. Amenity is fully equipped. , Sleeping scrolls that can be used as roomwear are also available in the room, so you can relax. It is a convenient place because it is near the station and has a good location and many restaurants. There is also a large communal bath, so I wonder if it's a great place to relax. The breakfast venue is not big, so you need to adjust the time, but I'm happy to make omelets handmade at the venue.

The boss was very enthusiastic. On the first day, he sent me to the tram station and told me in detail how to take the car. The next day, he sent me directly to the airport. The road was a little noisy. Because it was too fast, I was caught by the police, but the boss was not angry at all. I was still very happy to go on the road. The mood is really good. Steady. In short, I highly recommend everyone who wants to experience traditional tatami homestays. It is very quiet at night and the police district office is next to it. It is also very safe.
