Hi Joyce
Those are the options I know about in the Kyoto area, but there are options in other cities as well.
Perhaps you can start a new discussion with the places you want to go etc and we can find a solution for you!
Hoshino Resorts are bad at sharing information…
Are you renting your hoist or bring it with you? If renting, you may want to get the rental company to contact the hotel since it would be bad for them too if it doesn’t work out! Having the rental company explain, or possibly visit in advance could help.
Kyoto is much smaller and very focused on tourism so have such services but Osaka is more of a business city with less of a central tourism plan and don’t have as many services so you’ll likely need to rent.
