Uji is a great town

Uji is a great town centrally located between Nara and Kyoto. I arrived late after missing my stop and the staff was still there to meet me. It's an easy 5 minute walk to Uji station. Overall the place is clean and you can get a good nights rest. Beer on tap is free as well :-) I also highly recommend checking out the local shops in Uji. It's really a nice town and the people very welcoming.

Perfect, quiet stay in Matcha town

The mattress is abit hard, but other than that, the breakfast, matcha making experience, staff, room and bathroom cleanliness is impeccable! Also, Uji is such a quiet,lovely town to stay if you want to avoid the tourist crowd.

雪の影響で高速通行止めのため急遽泊まれる宿を探しました。3歳児を連れての旅でした。泊まったお部屋は和室に布団でゆっくり過ごせました。洗濯機と乾燥機があり、ミニキッチンでお湯が湧かせたりコーヒーが飲めたり、レンジも使えるし、、、快適に過ごせました。急遽の慌ただしい旅でしたが、次はゆっくり旅の時にまた宿泊させてもらいたいと思います。値段と駐車場無料で決めましたが、キレイで清潔感もあり、大満足です。
