Hotel La Siesta (Adult Only)
7,3/10 Very good - Based on 203 reviews
Hotel La Siesta (Adult Only) is an adult‑only love hotel in Kyoto’s Nishikyo district that caters to couples seeking a private, short‑stay or overnight option outside the city center. The property operates on an adults‑only policy and presents a discreet, car‑friendly layout with on‑site parking; it sits close to the main expressway interchanges, making it convenient for guests arriving by car. The reception is staffed around the clock and the hotel’s spaces are arranged to prioritise privacy and straightforward access rather than tourist services.
Room categories range from compact economy doubles to larger standard, queen‑size and deluxe units, and the inventory includes rooms equipped for extended comfort. Standard amenities across the property include complimentary Wi‑Fi, in‑room climate control and private bathrooms; several room types add entertainment and relaxation features such as large flat screens with on‑demand video, karaoke options, massage chairs, and baths with jet or bubble systems. Some suites list more specialised fittings—bathroom TVs, larger walk‑in layouts and private sauna or rock‑bath style features—so couples can choose rooms by facility rather than decorative theme.
