    “The breakfast!!”

    Stay for the breakfast for sure. The room for single person is not ideal (feels like a dorm and a bit noisy), I ended up changing to a bigger room and it was much better !!! but again, stay just to experience the breakfast at least, it's exceptional!

    “Great location and BREAKFAST Extravaganza!”

    I spent two nights at Yado Arashiyama in early March and I wish I could have stayed there even longer. The facilities are clean and modern, and the location is excellent, on a quiet street on the "far side" of the bridge not far from the entrance to Monkey Park. The highlight of course is going to be the breakfast at Muku, the on-site restaurant. This tour de force of visual and gastronomic beauty was a highlight of many highlights of Arashiyama - but definitely was the best food in the whole area. Stay here for the breakfast if nothing else. It really is that good and worth it to stay here. Plan to take 45 minutes to an hour for breakfast so you can savor everything including the self brewed dashi broth... an enlightening experience in itself. Easy access to the bamboo forest and not too far from the Kimono Forest located at one of the train stations (NOT the JR one)... but it is a trek to get here from the train station, especially later at night in the dark. Don't come with spinner type suitcases, go for ones with skate wheels which can handle rougher streets and sidewalks. Be aware that the town shuts down at 6pm (at least in early March), so food options are limited beyond 6pm, although there is one noodle shop 1/2 a mile down the street that stays open till 7:30pm... so plan accordingly. If I had a few more days to stay, I would rent a bicycle to explore some of the other temples and shrines farther up the hill - search PIQtour Arashiyama on YouTube for a good vlog on where to go on bicycle here and other things to do. Arashiyama is my favorite place to explore in Kyoto. The bamboo forest gets crowded by 9am - even in early March, so if you want a more solitary experience, you would need to get up even earlier. I would not hesitate to stay at Yado Arashiyama on my next visit to Kyoto. The breakfast alone is worth coming to Arashiyama to experience. I know of nowhere else where there is such a classy and uniquely local culinary experience. My breakfast was included in my lodging fee so I considered it the best deal in town. Extremely reasonable when booked through Agoda. I will be here again, and next time, I'll bring friends!

    “Great location. Fantastic food. ”

    This is in a great quiet location with very friendly and helpful staff. If you reserve, make sure to pay the extra for breakfast. It is a beautiful set meal that will start you day off right.

    “Nice place”

    New facilities. Room is small but fully functional. Included omakase breakfast is for sure the highlight. Nice staff with great responses before trip. Close to attractions within walking distance. Though no hot spring in the hotel, there are two public accessible hot springs within walking distance. The one in 25 walking distance for aure is better.
