This hotel is the perfect serene escape from the bustle of Kyoto city. The staff are incredible, all spoke English and were so helpful and really made us feel welcomed and cared for the whole time. The included drinks are delightful and we were able to sample the full tea selection as well as several alcoholic beverages even during our dinner- which I would also highly recommend booking!

We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The quality of accommodation was like a 5 star hotel and the staff were kind , very helpful and exemplified the spirit of the hotel name. Staying at this hotel was revitalizing and the natural beauty around the property with a most beautiful zen garden was very calming. This hotel also offers a hearty Japanese style breakfast as well as a western option. Highly recommended.

Staying here was the best decision because we were surrounded by nature and the vibe of the hotel is very calm and peaceful. The breakfast was 10/10!! If you are into trail running and hiking, there is a very beautiful 10k trail up the mountain very near the hotel (about 5 minutes away walking). This hotel is definitely one of my highlights from Japan.

Such a beautiful and peaceful place to stay on the outskirts of Kyoto ... a hidden and perfect respite to escape the busy city action but still close enough to pop in and check out all the amazing places in town. The facilities, the meals, and the service were awesome, and we'd like to especially mention the wonderful manager who always made us feel special, Koichi Koike!

We spent two weeks in Japan, staying at several hotels and Airbnbs, and Moksa quickly became our favorite. The hotel is set on a stunning garden, and the staff welcomed us with genuine warmth. Compared to other places we stayed, Moksa offered spacious rooms with bathrooms completely separate from the showers, plus adorable, comfortable loungewear to wear around the property. We also loved the sauna and contrast therapy sessions, which were excellent value. This is absolutely a place I’d recommend to anyone visiting Kyoto.

Beautiful Hotel outside of Kyoto

Beautiful hotel with very friendly staff. The location is a bit outside of Kyoto in a very beautiful and quiet surrounding. The rooms are very nice and I had a nice bathroom with a huge bathtub and also nice views of the beautiful garden. The only thing I didn't like was the breakfast and there was also no in-house dining in the evening

Me and my partner missed the shinkansen and the bus that was going to take us to the hotel, so we got even more behind our schedule of our check-in time. We told the staff beforehand and apologized, they were extremely understanding of our situation. When we got there, we were welcomed with warm smiles and helpful information of our accomodation and they even gave us some snacks after our long travel.
