Maishima Sports Island Romantic Holidays

The check-in took a very long time which I am still puzzled why! The picture of the hotel is very misleading. In expedia site, it gave the impression of beautiful green hills. In fact it’s location in city surrounded by buildings. Therefore, it’s kind of disappointing when I walked in the hotel because it’s not what I have expected. I booked a room with a view( that’s what it looks in the picture). They intended to assign me a windowless room. I was glad that I checked the room before I moved in. And I insisted to have an outside window. Other than the above, it’s an okay place to stay.

Property nestled in the heart of KIYOMIZU…leave a serene environment and walk out to a little hustle and bustle and some beautiful views …amazing property! Staff was friendly … Expedia notes pool access which is not accurate …no pool on property …

Our check it was easy and the room was very nice and most importantly, very clean! We loved the rooftop bar & restaurant- it was very nice to end our days up there with the amazing view! The 3rd floor lounge area was very nice to have - what a great surprise! The staff were always very helpful also. I can’t wait to return! Only one negative…I wish the bar were open just a little earlier in the evening.

The hotel was well located in the busy Gion area. It was a calm and peaceful and well landscaped. The room cleaning was basic. They changed the towels and made the beds and took out the trash, nothing more. They informed me that the hotel nightly rate dropped but they couldn’t extend the discount. I felt like a lot of Kyoto was a money grab.

Incredible location and hotel

Amazing natural hot springs swimming pools, great buffet

It was a luxury hotel but was not stuffy. Outside was deceptive. Hoyel was very pretty inside and the staff were very helpful. I just loved staying there
