Top Tale of Genji Museum Hotel Reviews

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was really friendly and they were able to not only accept my luggage, but it was already in my room before arrival. The staff was very helpful whenever we had questions, and the available amenities like forgotten toothbrushes, razors, and combs was great. Based on my booking, I was provided with some spending cash that we used at the rooftop bar. There are food options on site that made life a bit easier if we didn't want to go out or go far. The location was convenient to buses, and the train."

"We travel as a small group. The rooms were clean but a bit of moldy smell. However the dehumidifier was in the room so it was helpful. Great breakfast and coffee is available all day and night.
