Ryokan was beautiful and in a peaceful setting. The room was gorgeous, authentically decorated and overlooked a relaxing traditional garden. We went in winter and the two heating options made for a cozy atmospher. We had amazing massages and the food was to die for. Staff are very friendly and do not get in your way. Highly recommended.

Hotel is located in the middle of Hepburn, close to shops, cafes and restaurant. And yet, surrounding is very peaceful and quite. Good option if you want to do getaway with your partner/spouse. Breakfast was so amazing, you just feel like youre in Kyoto.

First weekend out from COVID 19 lockdown - it was fabulous to get out of town and what a fabulous choice we made. We were greeted with a smile and left the same way. Our room was just as described, the evening meal delicious and the futon was very comfy. The surroundings are beautiful, we walked each morning to get coffee, one morning we were greeted by birds and a kangaroo. The Japanese breakfast is a real delight. You will need 2 nights to fully enjoy all this ryokan has to offer.

We had an amazing time at the Ryokan. The highlights were the shiatsu massage - one of the best I've ever had and the breakfasts and dinner. It was the best Japanese food that I've eaten outside Japan. Very authentic and with a high degree of skill and care in each dish. We'll be back for sure.
