Amazing ryokan stay
Amazing ryokan stay in the heart of Kyoto; there’s a public bath you can try which is traditional and fun way to shower / bathe. When you check in they pour you tea and give you traditional sweet; they then go through breakfast times; breakfast in the room is amazing and must try. The set up of the beds was also done seamlessly and everyone was super courteous and polite - thank you for a great stay!

I feel sad giving this property 2 stars because the staff was SO nice and the property is in a good location. The main problem was the unbearable smell coming from the bathroom. It smelled so bad like raw sewerage that we couldn't even sleep even with the toilet cover closed and the bathroom door closed and the door to the sleeping area closed. It was that bad. I told staff about it twice and they just came up and sniffed around and shrugged their shoulders. The sleeping mats were terribly uncomfortable (that was expected) but the pillows were unbearably uncomfortable. They also only don't give you freshly washed blankets they just cover them with a fitted sheet which felt so gross if god forbid you ended up moving around and wake up with your face in the uncovered part (if only wraps around half of it). Cool experience but it just wasn't for me.

Perfectly Authentic Traditional Ryokan Experience
NOTE: This is an authentic ryokan with a full ryokan experience. If you are not looking for the full traditional experience, this might be less of an ideal option for you. If you want that experience, you will be handsomely rewarded. Have your google translate ready, because not all staff speak English, but that's about the only possible negative. The room was gorgeous, the location is perfect, near Nishiki market and surrounded by shops and restaurants. Get the breakfast option, as it's a cherry on top. We will be returning to Kyoto in the future, and we will most definitely look to book another stay here.

I love the location because you can walk to Teramachi Kyogoku shopping street. I love the clean room and the amenities. The experience was great but I didn't give it a 5 star because I was charged an extra tourist tax fee and I was curious why it was not mentioned online. I paid everything online and I was surprised to get that fee.

Simply awesome. Located in the central Kyoto area, 3-10 minutes walking to subway stations and shopping centers, and many tradition stores , cafes, convenience stores a few blocks away. Staff are very courteous and helpful. Only con is a bit noisy at night and early morning, and futon on tatami is a bit hard for my body.

A wonderful ryokan experience
The staff was so friendly, and the woman who showed us to our room did a great job explaining what makes the ryokan special. We paid for breakfast, and the spread they set up in our room each morning was stunning -- it was so fun to try different foods each morning. We also really enjoyed the public bath in the basement -- very relaxing and clean. The location is also great: very close to a train station, and there's lots of great shopping and eating in walking distance.

Cheap Ryokan in the city
A good price for a Ryokan! Can get breakfast in the room. Nearby Nishiki Market. Neighbourhood of this Ryokan has stylish boutiques and cafes. The public bath could have been hotter, but other than that all good.

We came to experience the Ryokan stay with my two teenager kids. I was not expecting to be top of the notch, this is a traditional bed and breakfast with super nice staff from reception, attendants, cleaners, servicers. They are very respectful and gave their best to treat their customers. Although the amenities were limited, overall, very pleased for the experience and the service from staff, the only less rate is because I am comparing to other higher rate ryokan and hotels.

Lovely onsen boutique hotel!
Perfectly located on a quiet, central street, close to cafes and small restaurants. The room we were given was spacious, with very comfortable futons. The onsen (hot spring baths) was excellent. Staff were very pleasant and helpful.
