Frommer's "Like the other traditional Japanese inns listed here, the 100-year-old Sumiya has a great location in a typical Kyoto neighborhood just a few minutes' walk from bustling downtown." Full review

The oldest rooms employ a striking variety of different woods in their design (be sure to notice the Edo-Era designs on the sliding doors), while rooms in a 45-year-old addition may have sliding screen doors that open onto a private garden.

Frommer's "This small hotel on Oike Dori was built some 30 years ago, but it achieves an even older ambience in its lobby with the clever use of antique-looking lighting and decor." Full review

Simple rooms are soundproof, but I still think those that face away from Oike Dori are quieter; ask for one on a higher floor.
DK Eyewitness "A Western-style hotel that is very well located on the main shopping street and just round the corner from the Kyoto Museum."
