'Great location in Arashiyama! Not so much amenities such as gym, restaurant and etc., but this is not what we needed here. Clean, comfortable, spacious room made the stay very convenient and nice. Would love to come back!'

'A beguiling charming traditional stay in an enchanted low rise part of Kyoto near the river and the bamboo forest. Host could not be more helpful or courteous.'

'This hotel is spectacular and just what we needed after 6 days in Tokyo and downtown Kyoto. Very relaxing and beautiful rooms.'

'Beautiful boutique hotel. Rooms just gorgeous, great location (catch the number 28 bus from Kyoto station) and good options for self-catering if you get a room with a kitchenette. There's a 24 hour Lawsons mini-supermarket 150m down the road. '

'We’ve stayed in this area many times but this was a unique experience. The location is perfect, the units are clean and simple. It’s a glamping experience that I would recommend and we will stay in again. Loved the staff, very kind and helpful!'

'Intoxicatingly beautiful - in-room onsen is a must!!'

'We loved the location, very quiet. Would have wanted a window we could look out of. It was frosted and felt like we were in a box.'

'There were surprise extra charges. Meal is costly'

'Beautiful traditional Japanese room'

'Good hotel and staff. Our room was non-smoking but it was very Smokey. Hotel was very close to the train station and it was very convenient.'

'Stay was awesome. '

'Als familie van 4 personen, 2 volwassenen en 2 tieners, hebben wij een prima verblijf gehad. Wij verbleven in een 4 persoonskamer met gedeelde badkamer en toilet. In de gedeelde keuken kun je alles gebruiken. De Ryokan is typisch Japans en een leuke belevenis. Prima service. Prachtige tuin. Restaurant in het hoofdgebouw. Bushalte en supermarkt op loopafstand. Met de bus 20 minuten naar Kyoto Station.'

'早朝から荷物を駅に取りに来てもらったり朝食の時間なども柔軟に対応してくださってとても助かりました。一人で利用するのにはもったいないくらい広いお部屋で数泊すれば良かったと後悔してます。 近くにはあまり施設がない為静かに寝れました。 鈴虫寺、松尾大社方面に行く方はタクシーを呼べばすぐに着きます。'

'First, the staff was lovely, kind and very helpful. However, the property was very old, not kept up at all, and very far outside of the city. It’s by a beautiful river, but outside of a seating area, there is no place to walk or enjoy it. The property smells of mold (if you are sensitive, you may need to pass). And there was black mold growing on the tub/shower. The breakfast was a beautiful representation of a traditional Japanese start to the day, however, and we were thankful to enjoy it.'
