Beautiful ryokan! Facilities are super clean. Staff is amazing. We love the onset. Unfortunately couldn’t try the restaurant as it was only with reservation. I would definitely stay here again.

Traditional Kyoto hotel
We stayed in a tatami mat room. It was all very traditional including the kimono, an in-house onsen, a tea set as per the hotel pictures. There's a rooftop area for the warner months (July-August) which would be good. There was a private toilet but not a shower or bath. You had to use the onsen. The location was good for seeing the main shrines etc. While I would recommend it for an experience of the traditional I'm not sure I'd stay again myself. No problems with the room, hotel or anything. It would be good for a family with kids simply for the experience. But there's not a whole lot to do.

Not the exoerience we expected
We thought a ryokan would be a nice Japanese experience. This place was pretty disappointing, therr were no meals available as was advertised on tripadvisor, and it just felt like staying in a cheap hotel (except with tatami mat floors and tea in the room). Our expectations were high because everything/everwhere else in Japan was awesome, and this was not. The location is good in Gion, but I would not recommend it to anyone.
