9.0

An ancient ryokan, owned by the same family for 200 years, set on a beautiful ‘no photo’ back street in Kyoto’s Gion district. A quick stroll to everything in the historic Gion / Higashimaya area, 10 min walk to the station and river. Very traditional setting, charming hostess (who was a dab hand at Google translate when needed!), our upstairs room had a lovely sun-dappled balcony to enjoy a peaceful pot of matcha. We requested one breakfast during our stay - it was fantastic with an array of local dishes to try out. Also, fabulous artisan coffee shop just next door.

We enjoyed staying here and learnt a great deal about traditional Kyoto as a result. But this is for those who are seeking an authentic experience in a family ryokan, rather than modern Western luxury. Bathrooms a little tired.

"Gorgeous ryokan to relax and explore Gion."

10.0

We loved everything about it. The rooms were gorgeous, as was the rest of the accomodation. The futons were so comfortable - like sleeping on clouds! The breakfast was delicious, and the staff was incrediby helpful and friendly. We had such a great time here! The ryokan has been open for 200 years and breathes history. It really takes you back in time, without sacrificing modern comfort and amenities. We were initially not sure what to expect of the shared bath facilities, but it just meant that you take turns with the other guests. You just lock it when it's your turn, and then you can enjoy your bath in full privacy and peace. The wooden bath was absolutely amazing, too!

Nothing, everything was perfect.

Classical Japanese room in beautiful old building & neighborhood, lovely staff. Option to use a wooden bath. Wonderful experience

The 1p room was a bit smaller than expected but it was big enough

A beautiful Ryokan with a kind and accommodating owner. It was so cool to stay somewhere like this, the futons were so comfortable and the traditional Japanese Hinoki bath was a highlight too! Would highly recommend

Very traditional, we were provided with Kimono’s to wear in the Ryokan but were not monitory. The street that the Ryokan was on was very quiet and was a no photo or video street so it was not bombarded with tourists. It was also right by a very traditional part of Kyoto.

The table in the tea room was very worn and was covered in mug rings from hot tea cups but that is expected. Coasters would preserve the table definitely and make it look more authentic.
