What an amazing Ryokan experience! If you’re looking for authentic, tasteful and elegant Ryokan with first class service then look no further. Walking distance or a short bus ride to all major attractions. Cannot recommend enough and will certainly be back if we visit Kyoto again. Thanks for a wonderful stay

Village kiramachi is strategically located. It is a beautifully preserved ryokan with modern amenities. My family specifically love the ambience and the warm hospitality which really made us feel welcomed. The Terrace villa, which we stayed in had a outdoor bath and shower facilities which was really cool. The experience and service is simply awesome. I think what can make it even better is to have a few more lights in the rooms for those that need brighter lighting. Thanks Village Kiramachi, for such a memorable stay! Do update your photos on expedia (with better lighting) to show how beautiful your rooms are!

We loved our stay here! It had such a beautiful, peaceful, Japanese vibe. The bed was super comfortable, and instead of traditional hotel robes there were lovely kimono-style robes to wear, and a tatami mat living room with low table and pillows. We wanted a traditional ryokan experience, and this was it!

Amazing experience

Just a turn away from a busy kyoto downtown street and there was village kimarachi. Such an idyllic, peaceful, beautiful and a welcoming sight. The staff was very helpful and kind. We were very taken by the sincerity of the staff. It created such a warm and cozy atmosphere. The villa type room/house itself was very beautiful. After a long day exploring the city the outdoor tub was just the thing. I was a little worried about the hardness of sleeping on a matress on the tatami but I actually had a really sound and restful sleep! Wakin up to the sun shining thru the ricepaper doors was just an amazing way to start the day. Breakfast bento was quite simple but very tasty, nothing to complain and well worth the money. Stayed just one night on our way from Osaka to Tokyo but me and my friend both agreed it was one of the highlights of the trip.

Absolutely magical retreat in the middle of the city. Staff was kind and patient with check-in, explaining the features of our room, and letting us leave our luggage after check-out for a few hours. Grounds are tranquil and gorgeous, and the room was serene and well designed. Outdoor shower and soaking tub were A !

Ryokan experience in a foreigner friendly package

To put it simply my stay at Village Kiramachi completely blew away my expectations. The room/property is beautiful and well maintained , the staff is all very friendly and can speak both Japanese and English ,the property is located very nicely in relation to major shopping areas and the local train station. Another interesting this was that this property also offers a tasty breakfast for 2200Yen and a chance to experience a Japanese Tea ceremony for FREE! One thing I really liked was that one the first day the staff went out of their way to make sure that I knew how to get around Kyoto and showed me where the best places to tour/eat were. Lastly all the staff I interacted with all spoke both Japanese and English well (especially Naru). As someone currently learning the language, this made things easier for me when I got stuck in Japanese and I really appreciated this.

A gem in Kyoto

My girlfriend and I decided to spend one night at Village Kiramachi during our stay in the Kyoto area. It is strategically located if you want to go around and visit the main spots of the city. The staff is great, very welcoming, efficient and helpful. The room itself is very spacious and comfy. If you ever decide to stay there, I would also suggest you order in advance their amazing breakfast.
