We had a fabulous five nights at the start of our trip at the Three Sisters so returned again at the end for another two nights. It's in a great location and the the staff, particularly one of the sisters Kay are great. Some of the decor may be a little tired but it can't be beaten for friendliness, cleanliness... more

The 3 Sister's Annex has everything going for it. Comfortable, quiet rooms with great decorative touches, wonderful location and sensational staff. We felt extremely welcome and loved every moment of our stay. more

My wife and I stayed three nights and found Three Sisters to be a great way to experience a Japanese Ryokan at a reasonable price. We considered the higher priced ryokans but found the food was the main driver for the higher cost and weren't that interested in that aspect.

I stayed here with two others for a few nights while in Kyoto. The staff were fabulous, very helpful and nice, all spoke english fluently.

(The two... more

We were acctually there in 1980. I was too young to go to the Palace with the rest of my family , one of the sisters (dont' remeber her name) took me to the arts and crats museum and brought me a treat. more

Very helpful staff that gave us great information on where to go in Kyoto and how to get there cheaply. All spoke English. Very clean rooms. Free Wi-Fi in rooms. Would definitely stay here again. more

I stayed here last minute when I came to Kyoto for a weekend while in Tokyo on business (it was one of the few places with rooms). I have nothing bad to say: service was fine, room was fine, and location did the trick. There is nothing too exciting about this place though, other than a pretty nice entry way.... more
