The bath in every room runs on a spring from Nose, not a Kyoto one.
FUFU Kyoto is in Nanzenji Kusagawa-cho, Sakyo-ku, a 7-minute walk from Keage Station. All guest room baths use natural hot spring water; there are no communal baths and no spa services. Dinner at Restaurant IOTO is a full course of Japanese cuisine using local and seasonal ingredients grilled over charcoal and is served only in the restaurant, while breakfast can be taken in the restaurant or, by prior arrangement and subject to availability, in your room. Children of all ages are welcome, and some rooms take up to 4 guests.
