    This was one of the greatest Japanese experiences I have ever had. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel like family. The food was incredible and authentic. I tried foods I had never had before and was so impressed. The ryokan experience is something EVERYONE should experience and to be so lucky to experience the Ohanabo ryokan, onsen, dinner and breakfast, yukata dress wear, and the generosity and kindness of the staff. Truly an unforgettable experience.

    I would highly recommend Ryokan Tori to anyone travelling to Kyoto. The hosts were warm and friendly and extremely helpful in giving directions etc. Breakfast was delicious. The onsen and tea ceremony were the perfect balance of relaxing and educational. I was not sure if the futon bed would be comfortable to someone used to Western accommodation, but it was actually one of the most comfortable beds I slept in during my whole trip - including five star hotels, etc.

    Rooms were large and great for people travelling in big groups / with kids. If you choose the Japanese tatami style rooms, you can sleep on futons on the ground too (if you stay at a traditional ryokan they will set it up it for you, they don't here). At several timings, they have free beer and sake, tea and coffee and even calligraphy activities at the front desk area. The staff there were really friendly and helped us with making dinner reservations at several restaurants for our group of 9.

    This hotel has got to be my favourite of my big Japan trip. The rooms are pretty and have traditional characteristic themes, emulating Ryokan atmosphere with tatami mats throughout. The hotel staff were friendly and very helpful, and I absolutely loved the huge variety of Onsen facilities with free ice lollies that came after, which was a massive treat after a full day of sight seeing. Also their breakfast buffet is next level! This hotel was slightly on the pricier side but 100% worth it. I will definitely stay here again.

    An authentic ryokan, in a building that's probably well over 100 years old. The rooms have tatami mats and futons and the onsen is beautiful. It's like staying in someone's home! This is not a super-swish modern hotel, so if that's what you want go elsewhere, but if you want a place with real character, staffed by people who treat you as long-lost friends, then this is the place for you. We will certainly return next time we're in Kyoto.

    It's a ryokan in a high building where you get yukatas, bento breakfast (beef is best), futons on the floor and a wonderful indoor onsen. We lived there for 3 nights and the best time to vizit the onsen was at 4 pm or about midnight. We walked to Gyon and Kiyomizu-dera, it took about 30-40 min.

    This Ryokan is located near several bus stops, perfect to sightsee Kyoto. The JR station is 10 min bus far away. The staff was very kind and warm as a real example of Japanese hospitality. This stay offers also several services like bike rental and onsen free tickets. The location was very relaxfull and quiet. Our room was equipped with tatami floor and futon beds. The room has several amenties, shower and bath tub. It has been a real japanese experience. We loved it!

    If you want to spend a few nights in a real ryokan (not the edulcorated-for-tourist replicas), this might be the real deal. Wooden and paper panels, tatami, futons, internal garden, traditional shower, in-room tea-set, yukatas, and many other details. My kids (14 and 11 y.o) said this was the best hotel in our 3-weeks-trip throughout Japan. The staff is very kind and eager to make your stay great.
