Top hotels in Motoyoshichō
Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs
Excellent location near shops, restaurants and transit. Hotel itself is excellent, baths wonderful and staff very helpful. Breakfast isn’t the best value and very very crowded but other than that faultless.

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto
We had a great stay. It was near the shopping areas as well as the traditional district Gion. The rooms were comfortable and modern with a bakery and restaurant on the premises. We would definitely stay here again when in Kyoto.

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo
The hotel is located across from Tokyo station. It’s very easy to access the public transportation and Shinkansen. The hotel is clean and the staff is friendly. I think there’s room for improvement with the check in process. Overall I recommend this hotel.
