Kyoto Hotel Guide - Ponpon Mountain hotels in Kyoto, Japan.

"I didn't realise this was a love hotel before booking, and probably wouldn't have booked it if we'd known. What a mistake that would have been apart from the talking point back home. I'm sure there are some seedy ones, but love hotels are quite common in Japan for those that live with parents etc. There was nothing seedy that we saw in the 6 days we were there. The room was enormous, the bed was enormous, the bathroom was enormous and the double jacuzzi bath was amazing. The decor was a bit tired in places and the breakfasts (both Japanese style and Western) were not the best but edible. We had a fridge, massage chair, massive TV, projector and screen, sofa, eating area, and it's up to you if you want to use the vibrator or something from the vending machine. I would quite happily stay here again and recommend it to anybody who's open-minded. We also had free and ample parking and about a 10/15-minute walk to the local train station. Multiple convenience stores around and albeit not too many restaurants, there were many on the walk to the train station."

"The best stay of our whole trip in Japan by far! Great amenities especially after a long day of walking and exploring"

"Beautiful, serene hotel. Staff is amazing. "

"Beautiful Location and excellent hotel"

"This was a great hotel as it was clean, good room size, breakfast was fantastic (lots of Japanese and Western options) and the hot baths is a bonus! The only downside was that we had to take the bus to get to most locations (which I learned after visiting Kyoto this is a common thing for everyone since the train system isn't as elaborate as it is in Tokyo so I still gave it 5 stars). Overall, for the price and value of the hotel we would stay here again! "

"The spa was one of the best I have ever used in hotels in Kyoto. "

"This hotel is truly like stepping into another world. The service is impeccable, the room we had was gorgeous and superbly clean. We were lucky enough to have a private onsen with very clean water at the perfect temperature on a lovely little lanai. All of the staff are very friendly and professional and the food is fantastic as well. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a touch of classic Japan in Kyoto!"

"A great ryokan with very friendly staff. The Japanese breakfast was the best we had in Japan! Our room was nice, clean, and had an amazing view. Great location! "

"Great stay! The property was nice and clean. The common areas were easy to use and felt social. We also rented bikes from the hotel and they were great and affordable! The desk staff was knowledgable about biking paths in the area. "
