RYOKAN GINKAKU KYOTO

A very nice Ryokan, staff are amazing, room is comfortable and clean. Easy access to train station, shopping and food. Had an excellent stay here.

Beautiful hotel and the onsen is really nice. Went so often after walking so much. Cloae to the train station.Only issue was language barrier. The apps helped but hotel states they have someone who can speak english and well we had some difficulty.

This ryokan exceeded all expectations. The room was luxuriously huge, and beautifully appointed. Everything was pristine and thoughtful. They even provided a straightener and curling iron in addition to a hair dryer. The futon was firm, but my sleep was restful and refreshing. The traditional Japanese breakfast is not to be missed. It’s both gorgeous and filling- perfect for a day of walking. The staff were very patient with me, as I fumbled through those first few days in Japan. Finally, the onsen was such a bonus. It helped me fight jet lag by helping me to sleep each night.

First time at a ryokan. This was immaculate. Clean, elegant and smelled like a luxurious spa. Our futons were very comfortable. Onsen was lovely (and hot!). Staff were polite a helpful.

This is our second time staying here. Staff was amazing. We were only staying for 2 nights and didnt want to bother with housekeeping, but they left a bag full of new towels, water, toiletries for the next night. How considerate. We love this location because its literally 11min from kyoto station, 4 minutes from yodobashi, city central, super busy, but as soon as you turn into this small corner, its very quiet and we love it. The onsen is clean. The private onsen is only 3300 yen for 45min. And they have washer and dryer.

This was my first time visiting Kyoto and I was very happy to have stayed with Ryokan Ginkaku. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Kyoto station is just a few minutes walk away. I was really happy with my room and hope to stay again!

We loved our stay here!

Absolutely lovely stay, and extremely convenient access to the train station. The staff are fabulous!

Perfect for a couple of nights stay. Relaxing.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. It was close to restaurants and shopping.
