Ryokan and onsen

We experienced a luxurious ryokan stay. The onsen was very nice, and we got it all to ourselves. We slept on futons and had a great nights sleep. Highly recommend!

Quiet and central

Beautiful Inn on a quiet Kyoto alley amongst izykaya and convenience shops central to walking to important areas of culture. Beautiful onsen healthy after a long day of walking. Aesthetics and architecture both classic and modern at the same time. Small gardens enhance experience.

Awesome !

Highly recommended! I feel like I finally found my favourite hotel. It’s close to the station, renovated ( super clean and new), has a public bath and futon tatami ( Japanese bed), provides traditional Japanese breakfast, and has a welcoming tea and cookies.
Sakura, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Bare bones

Great to try once in your life. Futons were not comfortable and there was zero amenities. Luckily Lawson’s and 7/11 are around the corner for coffee.

Michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Awesome place to stay for a few days in Kyoto as a foreigner. Close to some late-night food options, and nearby the train/bus station for easy access to the various activities in Kyoto. It was fun staying in a ryokan, the staff was extremely helpful, and the hotel itself was very clean and new-feeling. Would stay here again if I return to Kyoto.
Matt, 2-night trip

We loved this hotel. It was comfortable and convenient. The staff were lovely. We were worried that it would be uncomfortable sleeping on the floor, but it was the most comfortable stay of the whole trip. Highly recommended.

Edward, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My family and I stayed for one night to experience a ryokan stay. The rooms were minimal, but clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the kaiseki dinner and breakfast. There was a lot of food and it was filling. It was the perfect stop from Osaka before heading to Tokyo the next day.
