Room was clean, spacious and comfortable. It’s in a quiet and nice area yet it’s walkable from Kyoto JR station and there are lots of dinning options. Staff were super helpful and nice.

Our daughter recommended Hotel Ethnography as she stayed here a few weeks before us. It is a charming hotel, great value for money and highly recommended. We received a warm welcome from Alessio when we arrived and were delighted with the large spotlessly clean twin room we were allocated. Breakfast was simple, tasty and nutritious and great value at 800 Yen. The location was perfect as we arrived at the station and it took less than 10 minutes to walk to the hotel. Sightseeing was easy - on foot or by train. The Shosei-en garden next to the hotel is well worth a visit and the magnigficent Higashi Honganji temple is only a 2 minute walk from the hotel. The Gion entertainment area is a bit further away but only a 15 minute walk from the hotel. After staying in large, expensive and impersonal hotels in Osaka and Tokyo we appreciated the personal service from the friendly staff at Hotel Ethnography. Many thanks to Alessio, Tanaka and the 2 ladies at reception for making us feel so welcome and for being so helpful. We hope to come back again.

In questa location si è nel centro della città senza remdersene conto. Silenziosa fuori dal traffico e le camere sono veramente spaziose e comode. In 3 mn si è alla metropolitana verde oalla fermata del bus che porta a gion. Tutto perfetto complimenti.

Magnífico hotel y servicio excelente!
Me encantó este hotel: el cuarto era muy espacioso, bonito, cómodo y de limpieza impecable. Rico el desayuno, el hotel muy bien ubicado, pero sobre todo, llama la atención el servicio premium de su personal: me ayudaron en todo, eran super amables, y me hicieron sentir como en casa!

駅から少し歩きますが、夜は大変静かで過ごしやすいと思います。部屋が4部屋ということもあり、朝夕ゆったりするには良いと思います。部屋のエアコンは自由に設定できます。窓のブラインドが使いにくいので、こちらは早めに直した方が良いと思います。清掃は全体的にはできていると思います。1点前の宿泊者の方のものか、一部衣類の忘れ物があったので、ベットの下はもう少し見た方が良いです。 部屋は思った以上に広いですね。お風呂も十分な広さあり。接客も気持ちよいです。
