The family is very attentive and accommodating beyond the norm, you will never be wanting for anything. They were always very helpful, welcoming and kind, and always there to greet you as you came back from your journey. e.g. My girlfriend became a little sick during our stay, and helped to recommend what to buy, where to buy, etc. They...

This is one of my favorite experiences, and I don't think I would have enjoyed Kyoto as much if I hadn't stayed here. My husband and I stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon. You must try a ryokan experience. This ryokan was run by three loving people. Our room was on the 2nd floor overlooking a courtyard with... More 

The inn is managed by a very lovely and cute family. Once you checked in, the host will ask your time preference for dinner, breakfast and usage of onsen. Dinner is served in the room. You can choose to have breakfast in your room or on the 1st floor where you will be seated in a special room next to... More 

I think this place is actually not a Ryokan. It is very small with only maybe 3 or 4 rooms. Shared bathroom. And a bit confusing if I need to reserve the bathroom in the morning or not. I stayed in big room downstairs with garden view. But it is a bit funny that you have to open your room's... More 

My husband and I spend 1 night at this beautiful traditional place (6th of May to 7th of May). Our room was in the second floor and we had a nice view of the beautiful little Japanese garden. It was great experience, very clean and the staff were "super-kind". the breakfast was amazing and everything was perfect. When you are... More 

Really a highlight of japanese culture. Very small, but so authentic. Close to Kyoto station. Breakfast was a highlight. Very friendly owners who all spoke English. Only problem was the lack of locks on doors, but it was so intimate it didn't matter.

This was a lovely Ryokan just a short taxi ride away from Kyoto Station. It is run by a wonderful family who is very welcoming to their guests. We are a family of 4 and all of us were able to relax and have a wonderful time. It is a traditional Ryokan where we were made tea in our room... More 

We arrived in mid afternoon and had a bit of difficulty finding the place as we did not get up to the main level of Kyoto Station. However, the warm welcome was a nice respite from the rain and cold and the family were very hospitable towards us, answering all our (touristy) questions about the area and getting around. We...

I normally do not leave reviews as there is no lack thereof, however I am compelled to leave a review for this ryokan. From the initial moment of arrival, this family has made me feel more welcome than I have felt from any other hotel. It's a beautiful set up, with comfortable rooms all looking over a lovely Japanese pond... More
