- tomomi (10/5): - スタッフの対応、立地、柔らかな水質のお風呂 私たちにとっては、最高で、自宅にいるような心地よさです
- Jenny (10/5): Cute and cosy - Un logement cosy et qui plonge dans la culture japonaise. Les bains communs étaient très confortables et propres.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans ce Ryokan!
- Geoff (9/5): - Établissement un peu désuet mais qui apporte son charme avec, lambien ryokan, ses douches communes et son onsen.
Le personnel est tres agréable et est au petit soin. La laverie est offerte, tres pratique.
A 15mn de la gare puis a pied il en transport en commun pour le reste. Le bruit du va et vient le matin quand il y a du monde et que l'on souhaite se reposer un peu plus longtemps.

- Anna (10/5): Wonderful experience of Ryokan - Cozy and well maintained place Steep stairs
- Charles (8/5): Correct - Le côté sympathique La rigidité sur les horaires de disponibilité des équipements
Des sanitaires un peu hors d’âge…
- Joannes (9/5): Zeer plezierige ervaring , - Zeer aardige mensen, zij verzorgden gratis de was.
Heerlijk japans bad, enorm de moeite waard.
Met keurkrn
Ook het tatami bed was goed Niets
- 짱아짱아 (9/5): - 조식을 예약하면서..룸식사를 식사요청하였더니.고맙게도..별도룸을 제공해 주셔서 대 만족했습니다. 1식당 1인 15000원으로.일본 가정식 상차림으로 아주 좋았습니다.
- Dave23 (10/5): Friendly Ryokan - Beautiful ryokan with good location. The staff is really nice and friendly. They even do my laundry for free. We loved everyday there. Thank you to the staff. Arigatou Gozaimasu!! Nothing
- salvo76 (10/5): -
- Adriana Estefania (10/5): Vale la pena la experiencia - La atención del personal. Cerca de estaciones de transporte público Pocas toallas
- RINA (9/5): 最高でした! - 従業員の方々がとてもやさしくて、ご親切でした。道案内もしていただき、観光のおすすめも教えていただきました。手荷物を預かっていただけたのはとても便利でした。何しろロケーションが抜群ですので、買ったお土産など追加で預かっていただくのに(置きに行くのに)本当に便利でした。たくさん外国の方とすれ違いました。ワールドワイドなのもいいですね!!そういえば、お風呂が最高に気持ちよかったです。お布団も気持ちよかったです!建物がレトロなところが唯一無二で、娘との旅行がとても良い思い出になりました。創建昭和5年とのことですが、私が幼児のころ(いま58歳です)、こんな建物があったなあと思うような風情がありました。大変貴重な存在だと思います。
- Sean (10/5): Absolutley fantastic. Would recommend to any travellers looking for a cheap, authentic Japanese experience - Amazing Japanese style property. The host lady was fantastic. She did our washing and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Great experience and a reasonably cheap price. Checkout was 10am. The cleaner came into our room at 9:30 to hurry us out. We said we would be out by 10 but preceded to keep coming in to the room another 3/4 times.
- KURIHARA (8/5): - スタッフの皆様、とても良い方々でした。朝6時30分に始まる大浴場がありがたい。アクセスも抜群。また利用します。 特にありません。
- Chiyoko (9/5): - スタッフの皆さんの対応がとても優しくて安心できました。お風呂もシャワーだけかと思っていたら、湯船もあり嬉しかったです。 良くないことはなかったのですが、トイレも共有なので、いちいち部屋の外に出るのは、他の方にも会うのでちょっと面倒に感じました。ただ、リーゾナブルなのでそこを考えれば問題ないです。
- SHISE (8/5): -
- Yoshida (9/5): - 懐かしさを感じました。私は好きです ないです。古いけど大切にしている感じです
- Harkaraj (10/5): It was short and sweet stay in Takigawa Ryokan. - It really gave me the 17th century vintage experience, well maintained property. Very friendly and helpful staff, good value for money. I have no comments.
- Yoichi (5/5): 音がひどかった。 - 旅館の方々の人柄が良い。 上階や隣りの人が歩く度にメシメシと音が鳴り、ドア音やトイレ音など、夜中に安眠が妨げられる。
- Rina (4/5): I would not recommend this ryokan. It was clean, but that was it. - Really, nothing. It was very dilapidated. Torn screen in bedroom, faucet did not work, toilet area not good. All paper cups. This ryokan has seen much, much better days.
- David (7/5): Good experience - Very friendly Staff
Got my clothes washed for free Old but traditional facilities
- Iris (9/5): -
- Sereen (10/5): - The staff!!! So nice! The shared toilet.
- Giulia (9/5): Confortevole - Posizione comoda e in un posto tranquillo, il bagno pubblico piccolo, ma carino e comodo, aperto dalla mattina presto a mezzanotte. Tutto pulitissimo, peccato esserci stati una notte sola.
- MASAYA (5/5): 京都の街中で大浴場に入れて最高です。 - 古い建物ですが、日本的な雰囲気の良さと、大浴場で癒されました。 他の部屋の振動や声が聞こえる点
- Jun (7/5): スタッフの応対を含め、温かみのあった。 - お風呂が、よかった。 部屋に湯呑み茶碗、電気ポットがあればいい。

- 永超 (10/5): 日本之行体验最好的旅馆之一,下次还会选择泷川旅馆 - 第一次体验日式旅馆,泷川旅馆给我带来的感受远远超出预期,老板娘很热情,态度超级好,虽然我们语言不相通,但是她的热情深深感染了我。旅馆的地理位置也恰到好处,我比较喜欢步行探索京都市区,步行可以抵达很多地方。很喜欢泷川旅馆,希望有机会再来一次
- xiantang (10/5): 很好 - 服务态度非常好 想不出来😔

- kasai (10/5): とてもよかったです! - レトロでいい感じです。施設は古いですが、きちんと整えてあり清潔で気が利いていて、またスタッフの皆様も丁寧で気持ちのいい滞在となりました。犬連れで気兼ねなく一緒に滞在でき感謝です。お風呂も気持ちよかったです。京都駅からも近く東本願寺まですぐです。
- tomomi (9/5): - 雰囲気 特にない
- caroline (4/5): Un établissement avec beaucoup de charme mais qui mériterait d‘être restauré pour justifier le prix. Nous avons été tres -
- karine (8/5): Etablissement "vintage" - Très bien situé, à 10 minutes à pied de la gare.
Chambre au calme et bien équipée.
Propreté.
Accueil très sympathique.
Le bain est très appréciable en fin de journée. L'établissement est "dans son jus" et le prix est un peu élevé au regard des prestations.
- ナガエ (10/5): -
- Magneto Fón (10/5): - Staff is super nice and helpful. They do laundry every day for free. Location was in the walking distance to train station from where you can get anywhere.
We really liked the vibe of the place, nice traditional Ryokan. Onsen was nice relax after long day. If you looking for quiet and extra comfy place, this is probably not the ideal option. You can hear everything, they start to clean in the morning which was also quite noisy. Bathroom and toilets are shared, they have Japanese and western toilets. Overall it was perfect experience for 3 nights.
- Eva (10/5): Unforgettable Stay - We had a truly unforgettable stay at this ryokan. The staff were incredibly kind and always willing to help, making the experience feel genuinely warm and welcoming. We were lucky enough to try the traditional Japanese breakfast one morning, which made our stay even more special.
The shared bathrooms were always clean and available, and we loved having the chance to relax in the onsen after a long day of walking. A beautiful and authentic Japanese experience that we highly recommend. -
- Liu (10/5): - The staff was really friendly. The location is good and convenient. And it is really clean. Nothing really.
- Paula (10/5): -
- Domenico (9/5): - Posizione e gentilezza del personale Nulla
- kenjiro (8/5): -
- Marinescu (8/5): Just try it! - A very interesting experience which I highly recommend. You must try a warm bath in the common facilities. There is a sewage problem which generates some bad smell in some of the toilets that needs to be fixed.
- Sébastien (9/5): - Les gens sont super gentils j'ai apprécié mon cours séjour Rien
- Naoko (10/5): -
- tomomi (10/5): 常宿です - お風呂、ロケーション、スタッフの人柄、良かったです 新しいタイプの宿泊施設を望む方は、他を当たったほうが良いでしょう
- Ezequiel (9/5): - It's a house.
Large tub. One bike to get around.
Far from bus stops.

- hashimoto (10/5): - すごく親切で安心して宿泊できました
部屋もお風呂も快適でした
- Maki (10/5): 満足感、十分 - スタッフの対応がすご〜く良かった。
料理も美味しくいただけました。
- David (9/5): - És un Ryokan molt autèntic i el personal és molt agradable i simpàtic. Quan vam arribar, vam trobar un prestatge amb el nostre nom on deixar les sabates, fet que reflexa la seva hospitalitat i dedicació.
La comunicació va ser molt bona i servicial per part seva. Els futons i en general l'habitació era molt còmoda i gran.
L'espai de dutxa és al pis inferior, però al pis superior hi ha lavabos.
Està ben situat, a pocs minuts d'un temple molt recomanable i a 10-15 minuts de l'estació central de Kyoto. No s'oferien àpats tot i que ens va semblar veure que tenien cuina. Hagués estat bé provar l'experiència completa.
El lavabo és una mica petit.
- Beatrice (10/5): We had an amazing stay at this little ryokan, we felt cuddled like children. - The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the sentō was soothing after long walking days, the staff is incredibly nice and helpful. Some facilities are a little old and could be renovated (shared sinks).
- ALBERTO (10/5): Fantastico - Posto eccezionale, il personale è davvero fantastico. Stanza enorme, pulita e arredata con lo stile tipico giapponese.
Luogo vicino ad un noleggio di biciclette, vicino al centro e vicino alla stazione.
Zona molto tranquilla.

- Montay (10/5): - Nous avons passé un super séjour au Takigawa Ryokan. Nous avons été accueillies chaleureusement par les propriétaires de l'établissement, notre chambre était propre et très confortable, le service toujours au rendez-vous, et le bain public était aussi un bel espace agréable! Il y a du thé vert à disposition, les serviettes et yukatas sont changés tous les jours, et une lessive par chambre est offerte. Tout pour se sentir à l'aise et avoir plaisir à y revenir le soir, après une journée de visite dans Kyoto!
- Ueno (10/5): また利用したいと思う施設です。 - スタッフの気遣いや細やかさが素晴らしい。
ペット同伴が出来ることも嬉しい。
- Olga (9/5): - Big clean comfortable room, next to the bus stop. Onsen is wonderful! Toilets are shared and a little bit small. We are 160 cm and it was tough to use cabins
- Audrey (10/5): - L'emplacement. La gentillesse et la disponibilité du personnel. Le bain chaud Rien
- Fumio (6/5): -

- Weiting (10/5): -
- Francesc (7/5): - The staff was the best thing of this Ryokan. The ladies were super caring and offered anti mosquitoes to my daughter, did the laundry for free and even folded our clothes. And they greeted us, offered breakfast, asked where were going and if we were enjoying Japan. They made us feel like at home.
Oh, and the room had a Go play set. The facilities need some kind of renovation. It is clean but look.old.
- Andrzej Snarski (10/5): A glimpse of traditional accommodation in a heart of Kyoto - The hot bathroom experience was an amazing. I did enjoy soaking in a bath and it was super relaxing. The lady was super friendly and washed our clothes. The old style interior design provided unforgettable experience. There are the separate bathroom and toilet. A walking distance to the train station and convenience stores Everything was perfect
- Antigone (8/5): Comfortable, Japanese style accomodation with kind and helpful staff. - Big room which was awesome after some previous nights in a crammed hostel. The bathrooms are shared but SUPER clean, the hot spring bath was perfect after a long day of walking around. They also did a load of washing for me which was so beautifully clean and folded. I didn't hire a bike so I was walking everywhere which was sometimes a little far in the hot sun. Also I had to wear my earplugs as the walls were thin and you could hear people walking in the halls at night. No breakfast available.
- mayuminz (6/5): -
- Guillaume (10/5): Great ! - Really good place to stay ! The owner is lovely and speak good english ! Private bath are a must !!!
- Michał (10/5): - I love this place and we will definately come back! It is true experience that every tourist should try at least once. I cannot say any bad word about this place.
- davide (9/5): - Ryokan autentico ad un ottimo prezzo, lavaggio vestiti compreso nel soggiorno.
- Hannah Rabea (10/5): Wer eine richtige japanische Erfahrung sucht, mit klasse Service, ist hier genau richtig. - Charmantes Ryokan, ganz traditionell.
Keine Duschen im europäischen Stil - Onsen sind die Duschen. Mal was ganz anderes, tolle Erfahrung.
Super netter und herzlicher Service. Es wurde sogar unsere Wäsche kostenlos gewaschen, Wahnsinn!
Zimmer geräumig, klappt gut auch mit großen Koffern. Und Kühlschrank auf dem Zimmer.
- Parnell (10/5): -
- David (10/5): - Nous avons aimé l’accueil, la propreté, l’onsen, la gentillesse des dames à l’accueil et le service(linge lavé et seché et plié gratuitement)
À proximité de la gare , pratique pour un départ tôt le matin
- Gino Franco (10/5): Most beautiful ryokan for short stays. - Very traditional.
- Emmanuel (10/5): -
- Eva (9/5): Ryokan modesto y familiar muy recomendable. - Trato muy cordial. Es un Ryokan muy modesto y familiar. Nos gustó mucho porque nos sentimos como en casa. La habitación con tatami muy amplia y muy cómoda. Dormimos muy bien. El baño termal (onsen) es colectivo, muy sencillo pero muy agradable. El entorno es muy agradable y la ubicación muy buena.
- Jan (8/5): -
- Rachael (8/5): -
- Ester (10/5): Imprescindible si vas a Kioto - Me encantó que era un alojamiento tradicional japonés, cuidando cada detalle.
El personal es super agradable, te intentan ayudar en cada momento.
Nos dieron la bienvenida con una bebida y un dulce típicos japoneses.
El onsen chiquitito pero muy acogedor.
- Gyuyoung (9/5): -
- Carlos (9/5): Experiencia japonesa auténtica y satisfactoria en global - Personal muy amable. Todo limpio y había un onsen en el baño.
Ryokan auténtico y cómodo. Las paredes son finas, nos tocó al lado unos maleducados que pusieron al máximo la música. El hombre del servicio no estuvo a la altura (me decía que no había nadie en la habitación y era evidente que sí), las mujeres mucho mejor, hicieron lo que pudieron para solucionar las cosas.
- J Patric (10/5): Cozy Ryokan Experience near Kyoto Station - What a wonderful Ryokan experience. It appears to be a family owned cozy Japanese Inn. Staff is very warm and friendly. They speak enough English to communicate with guests from all over the world. Rooms are small but clean and cozy. Toilets and Bathrooms are shared facilities. Location is not far away from Kyoto station (15-20min walk). I forgot to order dinner and breakfast when I made the reservation. Unfortunately could not rectify this on short notice.
