missingWrote a review on 18 Novtemple viewonsenbreakfast spreadoutdated couch
Yo, waking up to the temple view every morning was unreal! The onsen after a long day out was just what I needed. Quality breakfast spread too, omelets and all. Only thing? Couch in our room was kinda tired, could use an upgrade. Otherwise, the vibe and staff were great-definitely felt at home here.

The staff was impeccably polite and was always available for assistance.
Unfortunately, the breakfast buffet was overpriced, especially for western options which were limited. The view from the temple-facing room was not worth the high price, with the busy road outside making it hard to enjoy. I was also disappointed by the overall cleanliness, as dust was noticeable in various corners of our room.

The rooms are spotless here with comfortable beds, a View of the Temple plus a mini-fridge. The breakfast variety is gorgeous with the best yoghurt in Japan, perfectly baked croissants and also the best yoghurt, outstanding service
Too expensive breakfast, it should be way much better.

It was fantastic, modern and with comfortable beds. The staff were all immensely pleasant and incredibly nice. The location was marvellous and beautiful there, in Gion area. In El Pollo you could have Japanese meals.

The location near Kyoto Station made exploring so easy. I enjoyed the fine view of the temple from my room-definitely a highlight. The traditional Japanese bath was a perfect way to unwind after a long day. I appreciated the breakfast with its mix of local Japanese dishes and some satisfying Western options. The internet connection was pretty unreliable. I also found the room a bit outdated, especially the mattress which was not very comfortable. Staff were friendly but could have been more helpful when I brought up some cleanliness issues. A solid stay, but some updates are needed.

Kuu in Kyoto has a killer location near Kyoto Station and charming Higashi Hongan ji Temple. The breakfast spread's awesome, with fresh local options. Just be ready for thin mattresses if you're with kids-but they helped us out with extra ones!

Window designs lack clarity. AC emits an odd smell. Outdated room amenities need attention. Cleanliness issues like dust on surfaces. Comforter needs replacing due to poor condition.

The atmosphere stands out with beautiful entrance decor and really good public baths. A highlight was the breakfast, with classic local dishes that were good. While the location is ideal for exploring the area, the room amenities felt slightly dated, and the cleanliness could use improvement in some corners. The double beds, although wide, could benefit from a refresh as they were showing signs of wear.
