Ryokan Sumiya Kihoan

Our stay was wonderful. We had the sukiyaki for dinner, absolutely delicious and filling. We also enjoyed an experience in the secret outdoor Onsen at night time. It was very romantic and peaceful. The room itself was lovely, it smelled clean and fresh. If we have the opportunity to visit Japan again we would definitely come back here.

We left from Italy with the wish to see the real Japanese style of life and here we found it! This is a beautiful place where you can relax, live the real Japanese culture and you can relax in the hot springs. We discovered the real Japanese food, and it was fantastic! We say "Thank you very much" to the staff, for their kindness, availability and for the services. An unforgettable stay! Giuseppe Ghiraldo.

What an awesome place! Stayed there at the recommendation of a Japanese friend. It's great to experience a traditional Japanese hotel for a few days. You sleep on the mats in your room, and you can order a dinner to be served in the room. The food is excellent, try their traditional multi-course dinner, it's a bit expensive but totally worth it! It looks like the most of the guests are Japanese, but stuff goes out of their way to make foreign visitors welcome. Most of them speak decent English. Also, try the onsen - the experience sounds a bit weird at first, but it's really amazing! It turns out that John Lennon and Yoko Ono visited this place in 1977, if you ask, they will show you their autograph.

La struttura e il personale sono perfetti pronti a soddisfare ogni tuo bisogno. Il clima e l'atmosfera sono quelli della vera tradizione giapponese. Le camere sono belle, il cibo secondo la vera cucina in Giappone. Per chi si vuole rilassare e riposare dopo le giornate frenetiche in giro per le grandi città del Giappone l'hotel offre ai suoi ospiti i benefici delle terme. Per noi il soggiorno in questo hotel rimarrà un ricordo fantastico e pensiamo che chiunque venga in Giappone questa dovrebbe essere una tappa da non perdere per scoprire la vera anima di questo Paese.

段差3段は簡易のスロープを利用すればOK、旅館備え付けの室内用軽量車いすを用意して乗り換えすればOK 障害者が利用しやすいホテルになっていただきたい。

Loved our stay at this Ryokan! The service was amazing as expected. If you love nature and want to get away from the buzz of the city, you’ll love it too! They have a shuttle you can take instead of the bus from Kameoka station.

Wonderful, peaceful experience at this Ryokan. Easy to get to and facilities were well maintained. The private Onsen was a memorable experience - try to do it at dusk! The 7 course dinner was a delightful experience even catering for 6 year olds! Amazing service all round especially from Mizuki for the dinner service in our room. Highly recommended for family.

Très beau ryokan on est complètement immergé dans la culture japonaise Belle chambre avec futon et onsen très agréable Très bonne cuisine , dommage que le petit déjeuner soit seulement japonais Pas de petit déjeuner continental Seul problème est la situation à presque une heure du centre de Kyoto!

The best part of our stay was enjoying the private outdoor hotspring. It’s worth the extra cost and advanced booking. The pros: the staff was friendly and helpful. We appreciate the fact they arranged for English-speaking staff to assist us. They also brought us a heater when we noted that the shower area in the room was cold. The hotspring tub in the room was nice and big. The cons: The inn is close by a highway. One can see cars fleeting by from the dining area and the wine bar/cafe. The Western room with private outdoor hotspring bath that we booked was small for the price. The easy chair facing the green view is in the bathroom. The room is very basic. No elegant decorations like in other ryokans. The tiny pantry for making tea is next to the toilet. There is no choice of yukatas. Both male and female have the same ones. We were never asked about size selections either. The coat over the yukata was thin. In some other ryokans we have stayed in there were thicker coats provided. The whole place other than the room was chilly. There seemed to be no heating at all. The Sukiyaki dinner we chose was good but not fantastic. They do give you lots of food though. Breakfast was half- buffet style. Very basic, nothing impressive. It’s ok overall but we will not return. We stayed at Suizen and liked it much better.

員工服務態度好好，又會幫忙搬行李回房間，溫泉開放時間長，由入住時間到等二朝10點，食物質素佳，早餐有西式或日式選擇，我兩日都選擇日式，好食之餘份量重好多，值得入住！
