    It was a worthwhile cultural experience to stay in a traditional Japanese ryokan, enjoying the beautiful and filling breakfasts each morning and the onsen at night in the provided yukata. The location was about 5 minutes away from the bustling Nishiki Market on foot and just a little longer to other shopping places and bus stops. A 10 minute walk from the nearest station (Karasuma-oike). The service is exceptional - they helped us book a taxi smoothly and quickly when we were in a rush.

    Incredible two-floor house. The first floor is where you cook and do the living. Really spacious and well lit, with enough kitchen utensils for cooking. The bath is huge, you really feel like royalty. The second floor is where you sleep. It consists of two traditional Japanese dormitories with tatami and futons!!

    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.

    Loved my stay here! It was a great experience to stay at a ryokan, and this room was perfect. The tatami mats and futon were very comfortable to sleep on. Having the paper sliding doors was also pretty cool for us. We also chose to hire the outdoor bath and it was heavenly! Couldn't recommend it more

    It was a very traditional ryokan, with modern facilities like lift and warming system. Love the futon and tatami settings. The owner was super friendly and speaks English. She has been very helpful to arrange reservations with restaurants and posting my parcels out within Japan! Amenities was provided and breakfast in house was hearty

    From the moment we arrived we were met with smiling staff who were there to help with anything and everything our entire stay. We had reserved a room with private bath (onsen but without the mineral spring water) which was a wonderful experience as we weren’t comfortable going to a public onsen. My son and I loved exploring, and there is so much to see in the area. From traditional breakfasts to a Kaiseki dinner, futon beds and the bathing room it summed up a traditional Kyoto experience for me.
