Great stay in Kyoto ryokan

Very convenient location. Clean ryokan that offers unique experience. We got to try complimentary sake tasting, fan painting, matcha making, and tea tasting! Very friendly staff as well.
Jie Hyon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved staying at Saju Kyoto. It is in a nice neighborhood with many dining options, stores and other amenities nearby. Getting to a metro was just a short walk away. We particularly enjoyed the wonderful staff working there. They were all friendly, always happy to chat with you and see how your day went. They were quick to answer questions and worked hard to research information they didn't have any immediate answer for. We would definitely stay there again.

Best Kyoto hotel ever

Truly unforgettable Kyoto stay – authentic, elegant, and heartwarming Our stay at this beautiful boutique hotel in Kyoto was a highlight of our trip. The room, featuring traditional tatami mats and a futon, was impeccably clean and just as stunning as the photos suggested — with a soft, woodsy aroma that made it feel immediately calming and serene. What truly set this stay apart was the hospitality. Our host was the most accommodating and thoughtful person we met in Japan. She offered us a range of complimentary cultural experiences including a tea ceremony, sake tasting, fan painting, and wine tasting — each one delivered with care and genuine warmth. On our final morning, we were treated to a delicious matcha tea and a light dashi broth breakfast served in a charming breakfast cup — a perfect parting gesture. The hotel is nestled just moments from Nishiki Market, right in the heart of Kyoto’s enchanting backstreets. Surrounded by boutique shops, high-end retail, izakayas, and cosy restaurants, it felt like we were living as locals — immersed in Kyoto’s everyday elegance. If you’re looking for an experience that combines comfort, culture, and exceptional hospitality, this is the place to stay. We left with full hearts, lovely memories, and a deep appreciation for Kyoto’s quiet beauty.
