“Yado Arashiyama, reserved for guests 13 and older, creates a peaceful Kyoto escape. I found the location ideal, a stroll away from Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, and appreciated the thoughtful amenities, including the garden. The Asian breakfast might not suit every palate, but the clean, modern rooms offer a welcome respite.”
