I LOVE THIS HOTEL! The manager and the staff at the front desk were so friendly and welcoming. They explained everything so thoroughly on how the hotel works and cool locations to check out nearby. The ladies at the front desk were also super helpful in case I had any issues finding things nearby so thank you so much again!! I also thought that it was cool they have a live camera to the Main Street area to see how busy it is. The hotel is a little hidden away but TOTALLY worth it. It’s so quiet here at night which I really like. The staff had a very eco friendly cleaning routine which was nice since it kept the rooms tidy. Rooms themselves are pretty big for a hotel. They are more like an apartment. I traveled in a group of 3 so this was pretty much perfect for us. The bathrooms were a big sized wet room and a separate toilet from the wet room which was very cool. There is a washing machine if you want to wash your clothes here too since any coin wash is kind of far away. Super convenient! There is also a pretty close by train station and ministop which has the most beautiful trains nearby so be sure to check them out! All in all a great experience here! Thank you so much Hotel Riverside Arashiyama staff 🙌🙌💚💚.

Hotel was great, and very cheap for the space. It’s not luxurious but very comfortable. Good beds. Mini apartment really with little kitchenette. Staff attentive and had good English. Great location for monkey park (steep climb, be warned). Arashiyama is beautiful. Bamboo forest is pretty close at about 10-15 minutes walk away. Convenience store 300m away, right next to Hankyo railway (Arashiyama station) into Kyoto centre. I recommend Mizuki (very Kyoto-authentic restaurant); it’s a gem.

This was a nice hotel. Somewhat difficult to find, though. The attention to guests isn’t great. Left our garbage for them to take and it was still in our room when we returned at the end of the day. They offer free coffee, but ran out of cream and didn’t have any available for 2 days. Strange. Also, no front staff in the morning to ask questions.

The room was within walking distance from the bamboo forest and local restaurants. It was hard to find dining at night because some restaurants close early and you have to cross bridge to search for other restaurants. Too many gnats flying around. Gnats were also in the rooms. The staff were really nice and very helpful and patient.

We stayed three nights over New Years Eve. While we didn't bring our dog we wished we had! The property has all kinds of amenities for pet owners like a washing srea and free treats. The room itself was like a small apartment complete with a toaster oven, microwave, and fridge. It was spacious! The floor is concrete as are the outside walls, which was good for soundproofing. It was not loud at all. We really enjoyed walking to the bamboo forest and the shops and restaurants. There is a mini mart not too far away. It was a very quiet area surrounded by water and it was very relaxing. Thank you!
