Amazing location, 5 mins walk from saga arashiyama station (this station is 10 mins train ride from kyoto station on rapid service train), and also 10 mins walk to the bamboo forest and the surrounding temples. It is just amazing. Right next door there is a sushi omakase spot; mind blowing. The room size we got is huge for japan standard, and I love love the separate shower and bath tub; i got to enjoy a long relaxing hot bath tub after a long day of walking and exploring! I will definitely come back.

Perfect location to explore some of the culture and scenery of Kyoto. Quiet location but very very close to Saga Arashiyama station (2 min walk and easy transit to Kyoto station), nearby supermarket, restaurants, kimono rental, and short walk to the main shopping area, river, bamboo forest, and shrines. Well appointed spacious and comfortable rooms with good amenities, nice views of the mountains, excellent service staff who speak various languages and will help send luggage. This is my second time staying here and I will come again.

Fantastic location in Arashiyama. Very quiet. The rooms are huge (especially after the tiny rooms of Tokyo hotels!) - with balconies and sofas and the toilet separate from the bathroom. Front desk staff were excellent - very friendly and went out of their way to help us - especially the South Korean man (whose name I don't recall - apologies to him!), who dealt with our very rushed and stressed arrival so perfectly! Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

A wonderful boutique hotel in a quiet part of town near Bamboo Gardens complex. The front desk staff were all exceptional and helped me in many ways. The room was excellent. The shower incredible and bed comfy. The balcony showed a great review of surrounding mountains! Many nice restaurants nearby. Check out Maha across the street and Saganoya restaurant. Incredible udon and wagyu!! Lovely shrine and gardens nearby

Beautiful, luxurious, huge bed, great layout of the room. The Japanese screens made it feel traditional like the area and the layout was so spacious, this place was gorgeous. You’ll be happy if you book. Would have happily stayed for a week.

So many things to like! This was by far the most spacious room with a view, that we had in Kyoto. The beds were comfortable, the room had many amenities such as pajamas, slippers, kettle and teas, mini fridge, tooth brushes, combs, soap, shampoo, etc… what I was impressed with is a personal hand written note was presented in our room. Near to travel an and buses, walking distance to main attractions. The staff at the desk were very accommodating, helped us navigate to certain places we wanted to see. Just a wonderful experience.

The staff was friendly and helpful. They were very patient when my travel companions and I did not speak Japanese. In fact we went to the wrong Homm Hotel at first and the receptionist, who did not speak English, found a way to communicate to us where our Homm Hotel was located and even got us directions to follow in English. Upon arriving at the correct Homm Hotel, we were greeted with cold green tea and a warm, friendly smile. I would highly recommend staying at a Homm Hotel.

The rooms are very spacious, beautiful, spotless, quiet & comfortable. The staff are very kind and caring, always ready to assist & went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and supported. The location was perfect. Beautiful short walks to everything from the river, bamboo forest, Kimono Forest… sweet little local shops with artisan goods. The kids kept saying, this is like the worlds of Totoro & Kiki which was lovely.

Amazing hospitality and attention to details from the staff. Very large and comfy room (compared to standards in Japan at least). Walking distance to the bamboo forest and other gems in the northwest of Kyoto, way more calm than the east side. Highly recommend this place.
