Nice and traditional stay. Good experience
It was a nice experience. Very good customer service. Tradition Japanese living style. The only thing was the heater smell like exhaust fume for the entire stays that flared up my sinusitis.

A great Ryokan in the city! Bonus: a renovated Onsen! Rooms were traditional and clean. Not your western experience as there are no beds or in-room shower, but we slept like a baby! Staff super friendly. Highly recommended!

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful ryokan! Facilities are super clean. Staff is amazing. We love the onset. Unfortunately couldn’t try the restaurant as it was only with reservation. I would definitely stay here again.

만족스러운 숙소
기요미즈데라(청수사)를 비롯한 여러 사찰들과 인접해 있어서 좋았습니다. 또 기욘의 전통 가옥들이 늘어선 거리에 자리하고 있어서 사진 찍기에도 너무 좋았어요.

Traditional Kyoto hotel
We stayed in a tatami mat room. It was all very traditional including the kimono, an in-house onsen, a tea set as per the hotel pictures. There's a rooftop area for the warner months (July-August) which would be good. There was a private toilet but not a shower or bath. You had to use the onsen. The location was good for seeing the main shrines etc. While I would recommend it for an experience of the traditional I'm not sure I'd stay again myself. No problems with the room, hotel or anything. It would be good for a family with kids simply for the experience. But there's not a whole lot to do.

Not the exoerience we expected
We thought a ryokan would be a nice Japanese experience. This place was pretty disappointing, therr were no meals available as was advertised on tripadvisor, and it just felt like staying in a cheap hotel (except with tatami mat floors and tea in the room). Our expectations were high because everything/everwhere else in Japan was awesome, and this was not. The location is good in Gion, but I would not recommend it to anyone.

Unforgettable Ryokan Experience
This is the first my family and I have ever experienced a traditional Japanese ryokan stay and we absolutely loved every moment of it. Thank you.
