This was our first experience with a ryokan in Japan and although we heard from other visitors that it wasn't as "authentic" an experience as a different ryokan they had stayed at in Kyoto, I thought it was a great place for a great price. We stayed in a room for 2/3 people and it was clean and incredibly spacious... More

Excellent accommodation combining traditional Japanese ryokan ambiance and hospitality with western mod cons such as Wi-Fi and a small but fully equipped ensuite. We (family with three kids ranging from 8 to 15) stayed one night in a large traditional family room with separate tatami sleeping quarters. We had the in house breakfast and it was excellent - very well... More

My husband and I stayed at the Ryokan in a traditional Japanese room it was fantastic. There was the usual great hotel service with added bonuses. We received hot green tea in our room everyday and a sweet treat of local tradition. The breakfast was traditional and if you aren't accustomed to what is suppose to happen they show you... More

Stayed for one night in this ryokan. Quiet neighborhood and pretty cheap for Kyoto. Got a very large traditional Japanese room with a separate drawing room separated by sliding screen from the bedroom. No internet access in bedrooms but accessible in the lobby. Tastefully done up. In the morning, Mrs Nishiyama treated us to an abbreviated tea ceremony. Very impressively... More

This family run ryokan came recommended by Japanese friends. From my first e-mail correspondence booking our stay, I knew we'd be well taken care of. They were prompt with their replies, and when we arrived the staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious (I was traveling with my husband and son), clean, and quiet. And we could...

This is an ideal location as it's not far from the sightseeing spots, but quiet and cozy. The staff are nice and helpful. This is the first time we spent the New Year in Kyoto/Japan. We had nice kaiseki breakfasts and dinners, and experienced the New Year in Japanese style. They offer reasonable room rates and quality service. Though they... More

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely Ryokan. It is in a fabulous location, close to many excellent restaurants, good coffee shops and in an area that is really easy to get around. The staff are very helpful and kind and the rooms are spacious enough and quite comfortable. I loved the Japanese style bath-house as well. I would... More

I stayed at Nishiyama Ryokan on January 2012 with my husband, it was truly nice experience. We could experience the warmth and traditional Japanese Ryokan, but yet with hotel standard service - they do room cleaning service, friendly and informative front desk officers, breakfast, public bath available and they have laundry machine! And additional service such as Japanese Tea Ceremony... More

This was the second time I came to Nishiyama ryokan (first one was in early 2007), and things are still the same, if not: better. There were still the friendly and smiley faces greeting us at the reception every morning, and the places are still maintained as it was when I visited it the first time around. What I like... More
