Daitokuji Sushicho

The hosts were amazing. A very sweet couple that went above and beyond!!!! We accidentally left my husband’s insulin in the refrigerator they called us and shipped it to us in Tokyo the next morning. The food was delicious and plentiful. They were fun to talk to and we enjoyed our time there very much. It was very quiet and we enjoyed reading our books together in the garden.

Nothing it was wonderful

The hosts were really very good and the meals had options for japanese or european. Japanese meals were outstanding. We had whole unit to ourselves. Host was nice enough to give us tour of the bamboo forest. It was a bonus for us.

The meals options for kids or ordering other than set meal would have been nice.

Don’t even think about it—just book! A very authentic place with excellent food. Only make a booking with dinner, you will have a chance to try the best Japanese food. Even if you think that you have tried everything, you will be surprised.

Our stay at Daitokuji Sushicho was one of the best experience we’ve had as a traveling family. First time in Japan and we land in this small family owned traditional ryokan out of the beaten path, in a lovely residential neighborhood. Our hosts were the nicest people you can find, immediately offering to take us to visit the area, cooking amazing diners and breakfasts for our little family, and accommodating when our kids got sick. The 120-year old home was perfect for us 6, adjacent to the family restaurant with a private dining area for us. Very nice short walk to the Daitikoji temple and the city bus stops, we were able to visit the city by bus and subway and stroll around the neighborhood. Staying at this ryokan made us enjoy Kyoto even more as we were not confined to the touristic areas and even though it was only 4 days we got to see a lot by traveling to/from this neighborhood.

Everything was fantastic !

We stayed for four nights. The accommodation is lovely - a traditional Ryokan. The hosts are amazing, very friendly and helpful. They drove us to the centre of Kyoto and dropped us off at the station every morning. They didn't have to do that but it was much appreciated. They also took us to the Bamboo Forest before breakfast one day, which was lovely and tranquil and a change from the city. Both hosts could not have done more for us. The food was amazing - breakfast options were brilliant and we ate a couple of times in their restaurant which was a real treat. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a change from hotel accommodation.

The area is very nice, outside the crowds of Kyoto but close to many beautiful spots and temples. Also, The owners are very welcoming and helpful. We also liked the fact that is very authentic and private (I believe it is one or two rooms in total)

Everything

Nothing everything was perfect

I had the perfect family stay at this charming hotel. My family and I were greeted warmly by a delightful Japanese couple who welcomed us into their beautifully preserved, hundred-year-old home. Their genuine hospitality made us feel right at home, setting the stage for an unforgettable experience that we will cherish for years to come. The culinary experience was outstanding. Every meal was a celebration of traditional Japanese cuisine—thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and crafted to delight both adults and children alike. It was clear that each detail was carefully considered to ensure an exceptional dining experience for the entire family. This hotel is truly a hidden gem for those seeking a blend of cultural immersion and family-friendly comfort. From the historic ambiance to the impeccable service and cozy accommodations, every aspect of our stay was curated to provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere for families of all sizes. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel for any family looking for an enriching and memorable vacation. Our stay was nothing short of exceptional—100% recommended!

A little far from downtown

The hosts were very welcoming and the premises were very clean. It was a very unique experience that many are not able to experience nowadays. The hosts provided dinner and breakfast at their restaurant next door which had a very comforting feeling and the presentation of the food was spectacular. The meal provided had a large display of food and many courses and while you ate and talked to the hosts, you really got to experience and understand their lives in Kyoto.

100% satisfied

Very warm hosts who provided us with comfortable lodging and everything we needed for our stay, and exceptional meals (dinner and breakfast) in a very private setting. Chef Satoshi san was a chef in Tokyo and his skills and hospitality are outstanding. My husband says it was one of the most, if not the most impressive and delicious meal he has ever had. The bath was also a treat. The nice couple helped us with a taxi and a warm send-off after a decadent and delicious breakfast. Unforgettable stay.

We liked everything.
