"Beautiful rooms with a spectacular Japanese garden setting. Staff were excellent. "

"The guesthouse is quite nice, the dorm I stayed in is just 4 bunks, which is a good thing when staying is guesthouses. The showers were very clean for a shared situations. The location is in a charming district near Kyoto university. It can get a little loud at night with the university students drinking in the area, but that wasn’t really a problem if you have earplugs. The proprietor and her family have limited English ability, so be prepared for some mild miscommunications, but they are...

"Overall I would recommend this place. It's a good budget hostel and has everything that you need."

"A beautiful traditional inn/hotel, our room looked over the garden- very serene and lovely to take an evening walk in (all lit up) and likewise a morning walk (dressed in the provided yukatas). A little further out from some of the main Kyoto tourist spots but that's fitting for the location and Kyoto is very well connected with buses and the subway. Only wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you"

"The place is very convenient,near to Nishiki market. The room is abit small but the toilet size is okay."

"All good. A clean comfortable and very nice place to stay."

"I like that it is perfect for introverts as there is no need to speak to staff really everything is done independently. I did not like that there is absolutely no way of reaching higher floors without having to carry your luggage & of course I got the top floor & had oversized luggage. I think maybe assigning rooms based on luggage would help. However, I assume this may not be possible due to specific room types on specific floors (ie; two beds rooms on floor 2 & single beds in room 3) but other...

"The ryokan was definitely traditional. It was a wonderful experience, and the duvet was the most comfortable thing for the cold winter nights. We used the private open-air bath twice, once with sudden notice. The hotel staff were still happy to accommodate us despite the hour, and they were overall very kind about everything. There is a vending machine right across the street too, which was convenient, and Gojo station was a few blocks away. Overall a lovely experience, despite the older...

"Wonderful, modern ryokan, lovely owners, easy access from station.What more could you ask for?"

"Best place to do and experience a ryokan. Service was so good and attentive when it came to our tea and our traditional Japanese breakfast she walked us on how to eat everything. It was amazing "

"Ryokan meal was excellent, 5 stars! The most authentic dining experience we ve ever had. Meticulously prepared courses served in true Japanese tradition. A MUST DO for both breakfast and lunch!!! The room itself was typical minimalist Japanese and very clean. We had a little trouble going up and down the steep stairs to the bedroom, made harder with no stair rails. Make sure you are fit enough to eat and sleep on the floor also. Something our Western bodies needed to get used to. A great...

"Great hotel, loved the area as it was quiet and away from the crowds, but close enough for the grocery stores and eateries. The room itself was amazing and the bathroom was gorgeous. Would highly recommend this place and would stay again if I come back to Kyoto. "
