    “It was a wonderful accommodation.”

    Good points: - The breakfast is very delicious - The bed is spacious - There is an outlet by the bedside - The brightness of the room can be adjusted - The bathroom is clean - There is a mirror in the bath - In the morning, you can hear the sound of the bush warbler (I might have said that myself) I recommend it!

    “NIce Stay”

    This was my second time staying at this hotel, and it continues to be a great choice. As usual, the hotel was clean and well maintained. I arrived early and wasn't able to check in yet, but the hotel provided lockers where I could safely store my luggage while I explored the area. That was a very convenient service. When I stayed here in 2023, breakfast was complimentary. This time, breakfast was no longer included, so we had to pay for it separately. Even so, I felt it was worth the price as the quality was good. The location is excellent. Situated in the heart of Arashiyama, it's only about a two-minute walk to the river, and many of the area's popular attractions are within walking distance. The only downside is the room size. It was extremely small and couldn't comfortably accommodate two medium-sized suitcases. Compared to my previous stay, I also noticed that the lobby has been downsized. In addition, guests are no longer allowed to consume outside food in the lobby or common areas. Since the room was already quite cramped, we had no choice but to eat the food we bought inside our small room, which wasn't very comfortable. Overall, I had another enjoyable stay. Despite the smaller room and changes to the lobby, I would still happily return because of the hotel's excellent location, cleanliness, and convenience.

    “Staying here again!”

    The staff was TOP TIER! I work in hospitality and everyone at YADO were experts at making you feel welcome. The rooms were so spacious and luxurious for the price. I will be staying here again and recommending everyone I know! I loved the area as well. Sleepy and quiet Arashiyama was a nice break so thank you, YADO!!!

    “For those who want to have the best morning.”

    I booked the accommodation that was the cheapest since I won't be staying long for my solo trip! They will hold my luggage before check-in and after check-out, but it will be in a locker. The key will be kept personally, so be sure not to lose it...! The room was simple and focused on functionality. There is no TV, so it might get boring for some people, but I was able to make progress on my work 🙆‍♀️. There is no bath, only a shower, but there is a hot spring nearby, so it wasn't a problem at all! There is no convenience store nearby, so it's best to buy drinks as early as possible if you want some! What I liked the most was definitely the breakfast. I had heard that it was already well-regarded, so I was expecting a lot when I visited, and it lived up to my expectations. It was all served at the counter. They offered a truly wide variety of obanzai (traditional Japanese side dishes). The flavors, ingredients, and beautiful presentation particular to Kyoto were all enjoyable, and none of them lacked in quality. Personally, it was the most delicious meal I had in Kyoto...! Since this place primarily serves dashi, some people may find it a bit bland, but I really recommend it for those who love Japanese cuisine! I had the best morning… I definitely want to stay here again!

    “Especially breakfast is the best!”

    Staying at YADO without meals is such a waste. The breakfast is expensive, but I hope you'll try it at least once. It's truly delicious. The dishes left both my stomach and heart satisfied. The room was also very clean and comfortable to stay in. The shampoo, conditioner, and body soap in the shower room had a citrus scent, which was pleasant, leaving my hair and skin fresh and smooth. It was a wonderful place that I want to visit again.
