Husain Saeed Ahmed Kadhem Ali (10/5): -
MCKAY (8/5): - a small hotel, out of the way, but not that far away from activities. very quiet and peacefull location
Alhonita (10/5): -
Margot (10/5): - La propreté de la chambre et ses équipements. Le calme malgré les travaux extérieurs, les menuiseries ne laissaient rentrer aucun sons ! Le petit déjeuner et la gentillesse du personnel qui parle très bien anglais. L'emplacement qui est un peu loin des lieux touristiques (environ 30min de marches ou via un bus mais souvent bondé de monde)
Guimaraes (10/5): Exclente estadia! - Excelente ubicacion, el desayuno es bueno. La habitacion es mas amplia de lo habitual en Japon, luminosa y con muchas amenidades. Es muy tranquilo y silencioso. Lo volveria a elegir.

Seniha (8/5): - Ambiansı , özellikle banyosu çok güzel Biraz merkezden uzak
marco (9/5): - Posizione perfetta tra i punti di attrazione e la stazione. Pulizia e discrezione Forse la colazione può essere migliorata in varietà di scelta.
Dominique (10/5): - Everything The breakfast was imposed everyday no great choice and coffee machine not great
Krisjana (10/5): -
Alice (8/5): Sweet & cozy stay - Such a cute hotel, mix or tradition and modern style Nice spacious room Friendly staff, breakfast was simple but good 20min walk to geisha district Bed was not super comfortable Daily housekeeping didn’t remove the towels they changed so they piled up.
Eliott (8/5): -
柳原 (9/5): - バス停からとても近いし、お部屋も清潔でスタッフも親切シャワーのみだったのでやはりバスタブにゆっくり浸かりたかった
Barbagallo (9/5): - colazione ottima, staff gentile, amenities ottime. Bagno delle camere molto comodo e spazioso. La posizione non comodissima ma molto efficiente i letti non erano comodissimi, per il resto non mi viene altro a cui pensare
dragomir (9/5): A fost bine pt 1 noapte cu excepția mic dejunului. - A fost curat, paturi confortabile, personal amabil, aproape de stația de autobuz 206, exact ca în prezentare, aproape de Gion Micul dejun f restrâns cu f puține opțiuni , cafeaua nu foarte bună.

Tina (10/5): - Good location, very quiet and clean with a good breakfast. Helpful staff too!
gioacchino (7/5): -
Yorkston (8/5): Great room and worth it for the space and serenity - The room was amazing and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We’d come from a poky room in Tokyo, so this was such a nice contrast. It’s in such a quiet and peaceful neighbourhood. It doubles as a pre and post natal care hospital, so there is literally a nursery in the ground floor. It’s separate and not an issue, but it was a bit weird to begin with. Breakfast was included in our room price but pretty basic and not that great. We ate out both mornings because there wasn’t enough that my kids would eat as part of the included breakfast.

Ellen H. (9/5): Nette kleine Oase, sehr erholsam - Superschönes Zimmer, toll ausgestattet, super Lage. Frühstück war überschaubar und hatte etwas mehr Liebe verdient.
Jamie (9/5): -
Camila (9/5): -
Larissa (8/5): Overall great facilities and location. - Clean. Room was quite big for Japan. Staff was super friendly. It’s also a post birthing hotel where mothers and families stay after childbirth

Gabriel (10/5): A perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort in the heart of Kyoto! - Our stay at Hotel Ethnography was truly exceptional. The first thing that stood out was the staff; they are incredibly kind, helpful, and their English is excellent, which made communication seamless and our stay much more enjoyable. The rooms are beautiful, featuring a unique and tasteful blend of modern European style and traditional Japanese aesthetics. It felt both authentic and very comfortable. We also loved the breakfast—it was varied, fresh, and absolutely delicious every morning. Location-wise, it couldn't be better. It’s a peaceful area but very well-connected. We were just a short walk from Gion and iconic sites like Kiyomizu-dera (only 20 minutes away on foot). Plus, having bus stops and the train station so close made exploring the rest of Kyoto incredibly easy. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting this magical city
Arctic Circle (10/5): - Super nice staff and the room was great! Breakfast was simple but very delicious.

Mario (8/5): Nice small, quiet and friendly hotel for a perfect stay in Kyoto. - We liked the typical decoration, the friendliness of the staff and the location. The neighbourhood was quiet and centrally located. The staff was very helpful with restaurant reservations and laundry. It was not easy to find the first time we arrived in Kyoto. The hotel is also a nursery, which we did not realise when we first booked it online. Still, it was extremely quiet. The view from the room was not exceptional, but you are well located nonetheless.

Lorenzo (10/5): Easy to move around and clean quite - Quite and clean
Maria (10/5): Excellent value for the price, highly recommended. - Newly purposed-built hotel with excellent attention to detail and tasteful Kyoto decor touches. Luxuriously comfortable. There is no parking on site, but a few paid parkings around the property.

Katherine (6/5): Also operates as a pre- and post-natal care hotel - The room was very spacious, comfortable and nicely decorated and the hotel was well located for accessing everything in Kyoto We hadn't realised that the hotel also operates as a pre- and post-natal care hotel, so there were nurses moving through the hotel with babies, which wasn't an issue but was a bit unexpected as a tourist

Ambre (10/5): -
Laura (8/5): - Sehr schöne und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Zimmer. Sehr bequeme Betten und ein super modernes Badezimmer. Große Fenster, die man öffnen konnte. Es hätte in der Booking Beschreibung stehen müssen, dass es sich bei dem Hotel auch um eine „Pre und Post natal Clinic“ handelt.
Teresa (9/5): Muito bom - Localização Não é não gostar mas o hotel é um hotel pre Natal, era recorrente ver bebés recém nascidos e as suas mães ou enfermeiras

Wir hätten direkt dort dauerhaft einziehen mögen. Leckeres Frühstück und dauerhaft freie Getränke in der Lobby (Wasser, Tee, Kaffee,...). Sehr bequeme Betten. Alles perfekt. Wenn überhaupt, hätte das Frühstück etwas abwechslungsreicher sein können.
