Guest Reviews
- Sylwia (9/5): -
- Martine (8/5): -
- Pier Paolo (8/5): Ottima struttura per qualità prezzo, posizione e autenticità del tipico ryokan giapponese - La posizione della struttura vicino a metro,fermate bus e stazione La pulizia che non era abbastanza
- Johanna (8/5): -
- La Rocca (8/5): Onsen è vista dal tetto - Il punto panoramico sul tetto
- Oceane (2/5): Je ne recommande pas du tout - La vue de la chambre était belle L’établissement est vieux la moquette des escaliers qui mène au « rooftop » était déchiré, les toilettes de notre chambre était sale à notre arrivé les joints était sale, les rideaux et draps était taché les murs avait des trou ou des tache peinture, la taxe demander à l’arrivée alors que c’était spécifié nul par et en plus si on veux payer par carte il y a un supplément demander 80yens
- Remco-Jan (8/5): -
- Kaori (9/5): 良 - スタッフの方の対応が素晴らしかったです。コンビニまで行くのに、急な雨で部屋に傘を取りに戻ろうかと思ったら、すぐにフロントの傘を貸してくれました。またお風呂が思った以上に良かったです。体が温まりました。 トイレ目の前の部屋だったので、（共同トイレ）他の部屋の方がトイレ利用する際のドアの開閉音がバタンッと響きます。うるさいお客さんなどは居なかったので、話し声などは聞こえませんが、ドアの音だけが響きます。でも寝てしまえば気にならないくらいです。

- Tanaka (6/5): - 目的地の目の前のロケーションであったこと 素泊りでもお雑煮が食べられたこと 大晦日で料金が上がっていたこと
- Markéta (9/5): -
- Desiree (6/5): Tolles Erlebnis - Lage, typisch japanische Unterkunft In die Jahre gekommen
- Ender (10/5): -
- KENGO (10/5): - 立地条件が素晴らしい お風呂が、落ち着いてて良かった

- Rosanna (10/5): Would stay here if I had a chance again. - Staff was very accommodating. I had a minor medical emergency w my son and the staff did everything possible to help me w translation, getting a cab, even asking how my son was when we returned. I also liked the traditional Japanese experience w the tatami mats sleeping accomodations and free hot springs. Nothing.
- Beatrice (8/5): I want to sleep in the shower room - Room and shower room were very very nice. Free coffe and tea. Nice common room. Bathroom, too little, a little smelly, not very clean. Trash can where to throw away the paper towels too small.
- Philippe (8/5): - Un hébergement confortable et plutôt bien situé à 15 min à pied de la gare et à proximité directe de lignes de bus et de commerces. Quelqu'un de disponible à l'accueil à toute heure, et un changement fréquent des serviettes et des futon, malgré le peu de personnel. Un salon agréable avec des manga très sympathiques à proximité (à condition que vous sachiez lire un minimum japonais). On m'a aussi prêté un adaptateur de téléphone pour le séjour.
- Tazawa (7/5): - 駅から割りと近い 安い 特になし
- Rea (6/5): Pleasant -
- Yael (9/5): Superb -
- Anna (9/5): Superb -
- Dalibor (9/5): Nice ryokan by the station - I like staying in Japanese style ryokan as it allows the family stay closer together. Sleeping on tatami/futon is always more comfortable than small bed. The ryokan has on public bath so it is possible to relax. You can use microwave, hot water for noodles, ice etc so it is easy to have dinner inside if you do not feel like going to eat out. It is directly by the station or on the bus line to Kiomizu Dera. Nothing to add
- Phyllis (9/5): Public Bath Worth Trying - onsen bath was good the shower head was leaking, room was slightly dusty
- Kay-michael (7/5): Nice ryokan! - Location. Rooftop terrace. Quiet room. Unfortunately the public bath didn't work but they gave us 50% of the money we paid for the trip in return without us asking for it. So that's very nice.
- Victor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sf (5/5): A basic hotel. - Good in front of a large temple. Able to walk from station. Attendant at desk was very kind. Hotel needs an upgrade. I checked out after 1 night and moved to another hotel. Ryokan was not very inviting.
- Katie (8/5): A little dated but super clean and pretty good location! - The staff were really nice and helpful. Was in a pretty good location had multiple bus stops in the area. The public bath was dated but very clean. Would stay here again for sure especially for the experience! Not necessarily a didn’t like but the property is very dated but everything is super clean and functioning!
- Priscilla (6/5): Pleasant - 10 min walk from kyoto station toilet is rather small, had a slight strange smell and had sign of mould
- Alison (8/5): Good value, well located traditional ryokan - Helpful staff, free tea and coffee in the lobby, roof terrace, tatami, good value, public bath, close to station. Room a bit cramped, no meals
- Henry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Giorgia (8/5): Nice budget ryokan, good to experience Japanese public bath experience - Clean, minimal and efficient. It was our first stay at a Ryokan so we enjoyed the public bath experience. Compared to other more expensive ryokans you don’t get the full shebang of services (meal included, futon beds folded away by staff) but Azumaya is definitely good quality for the money you pay. A bit far out from the “historical”/ more central Kyoto. We had to either take buses or cabs to get around.
- Goh☀ (6/5): Pleasant - Warm and cozy ryokan Room is Abit small and not so comfortable
- Aleksei (7/5): Good - Old school Japanese experience, sleeping in the floor and using public bath. Too pricy for what you get. Toilets and public baths are very small.
- Julia (9/5): Superb -
- Morgan (7/5): Excellent for Hongan-ji visitors - Very spacious (10 kyu) tatami room with ample space for futon and for opening suitcases. Comfortable futon. Excellent location for those wanting to visit Hongan-ji jinja and the Ryukoku Museum. Beautiful views of Hongan-ji across the road. The building is generally looking a bit tired and dated. The Shower/Bath/Toilet module was a bit on the small side. Lack of tea facilities in-room is very unusual for a Ryokan. The bath in the onsite bathhouse was comparatively cold for a typical Ryokan (perhaps 38 degrees) and did not appear to be continuously spring-fed.
- Maxton (9/5): Great authentic experience - A great authentic experience for not too much money. Lovely temples across the road. Bath house is an experience. Bathroom very small
- Jefferson (8/5): Very good -
- Steve (8/5): Lovely Traditional Ryokan with friendly staff in an amazing location. - Very comfortable traditional feeling Ryokan. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very nice views from room and rooftop garden. Clean and cosy room. Fantastic Location, if you don’t mind walking everything is reachable. There not much I didn’t like. However I would have liked some options for breakfast as it was hard to find something to eat in the morning. I also stayed in a room with a private bathroom which was great.
- Lúcia (8/5): A quite simple place to stay, and this made us feel comfortable even if it doesn’t seem it at first. - The location was near the station, you could reach it by foot. The staff was friendly and helpful in everything. The only problem is that, if you take a room with no bathroom, the only possibility would be to use the public bathroom...
- Garpur (10/5): Cozy and I always looked forward to the bath and a good night's sleep - I really appreciated the included bath house which I went to every day during my stay. The location was also excellent, close to Kyoto Station and about 30mins walk from the downtown area.
- Anne (8/5): Very good -
- Joshua (9/5): Awesome Ryokan, great value and location. - Great spot, not far from the station, across from a UNESCO site, it's wonderful. The beds could be a little more comfortable.. but they were also quite fine.
- Marc (7/5): Good -
- Provencher (10/5): Exceptional - Typical Japanese room accommodation. We had a lot of space. It was walking distance from Kyoto station. The shared bath was great.
- Chun (9/5): Superb -
