We loved our stay at Machiya Ebisuya! Arriving was a bit of an adventure via bus. The location of the hotel was in a quiet area with access to many areas around Kyoto. The staff was INCREDIBLE! The hotel is beautiful and the tea room was so quaint. The room was beautiful with Japanese esthetic. Everything in the room itself had a purpose and made sense. The room was spacious and clean and offered many amenities. We were also very thankful for free laundry provided on the first floor.The most important thing was that I accidentally left my jewelry box after checking out and we were already in a different place of the country. The staff reached out to us informing us of this and even went out of their way to have my jewelry shipped to where we were going. I’m so incredibly thankful to them for going above and beyond. Japanese hospitality at its finest.PS) the pour over coffee in the room is amazing!!

Very weird hotel policy on room service. If the cleaning service sees a “do not disturb” sign on the door they will simply take it as a “we don’t want any service for the rest of the day” instead of the more common interpretation of “we are not ready for room service” based on an arbitrary check during the morning hours rather than at the indicated deadline time. The result of this randomness is that guests are expected to accommodate the cleaning service rather than the other way around. Want to sleep a bit longer and not be disturbed? Tough luck if you would like a clean room. They will not have a second look at your room if they already did so well before the morning deadline (fun note: we were told that without the do-not-disturb sign they won’t even bother to knock and just enter the room for cleaning, even though they do have a separate cleaning sign). In a typical hotel experience in any other hotel getting the room cleaned wouldn’t be an issue as long as the right sign is put up before the deadline. After an argument (having English speaking staff is nice but the downside is increased rudeness) we had the cleaning scheduled. Obviously this should not be necessary to get basic services and could easily be solved by simply running a last check at the indicated time.

This hotel was definitely a highlight of my trip to Japan, the rooms were excellent, big, appeasing and just plan comfortable. Also after staying at some of the pricier locations like Tokyo and Hakone the price here couldn't be beat. My friends and I liked it so much we asked if we could stay another night and Nana who was working the front desk made it happen.

I don't know if the lady who looks a lot like Princess Jasmine will see this comment, but we are Taiwanese tourists who checked out today. I'm very happy to be able to stay at this hotel. I really enjoyed chatting with you. We look forward to seeing you again!
