Ohara no Sato

Staff was very nice and attentive, very quaint and homely

Not enough toilets and cheap on towels. The stairs are very steep and I tripped on the twice.

It is a lifetime experience, beautiful place, excellent service, i can give them a score 10 out of 10, im willing to come back next time, and refer them to my friends.

The staff is incredibly nice and friendly. If you call them in advance, they can pick you up at the Ohara bus station for no extra charge, as well as take you back to the bus station after your stay. The view of the surrounding mountains is beautiful. There is a small temple walking distance up the road, as well as hiking paths into the mountains. There are no convenient stores nearby, so if you don't choose the meal options at the hotel, you have to bring food. Rooms also don't have refrigerators. The hot springs are small, but definitely worth the experience if few people are in there. Bus 16 and 17 take you one hour to the Ohara bus station from just north of the Gion area in Kyoto. The WiFi is fast too. We definitely recommend this place.

Many Historical and transitional building located around there. peaceful and natural, good for leisure. nice environment with hot spring, simple meal but very tasty super nice staff like a home^^

We enjoyed the freshly cooked meals, the excellent service we received and the hospitality of those in charge of the ryokan. This is an experience we will never forgot as it introduced us to a unique Japanese experience. We are glad we went there. O'hara is also a beautiful place away from the busy city.

A very nice ryokan in the Ohara area. It is grouped up with the other major ryokans in the area aswell so finding either of them should be no problem. very clean, spacious, relaxing, and friendly service. limited english so be wary. Food is set-up for you but other than that, it is DIY nabe, sukiyaki, etc. Towels and toothbrush are provided for you, washing your teeth might be alittle far and a chore, suggest you mix it in with your daily baths.

Took 1.5 hrs to get there by public bus from Kyoto Station. From bus station to hotel another 15 mins walk. But can also call the hotel for pick up. Inside is quite basic and you have to make your own bed. Shared bathrooms and public hotspring. Walls are very thin, people next door can easily be heard talking. Stayed 1 night. Sufficient to explore the area.

Located about 15 mins fro the bus stop the hotel will collect you free of charge. Room was very spacious clean and tidy Staff helpful You cook your own meal at the table but don't worry the supply very simple instructions. Great fun. And yes as to be expected for a traditional inn, you do have to remove your shoes on entering and making up your futon bed. It's what it's all about.

I really enjoyed my stay at this place. It was nice to get out of the city and into the countryside in the mountains. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and cozy. The baths were small but pleasant. The food was delicious. I enjoyed walking around the area, and going on hikes in nearby Kibune (1 hour by bus/train).
