A great Ryokan in the city! Bonus: a renovated Onsen! Rooms were traditional and clean. Not your western experience as there are no beds or in-room shower, but we slept like a baby! Staff super friendly. Highly recommended!

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
Posted 23 Apr 2018 on WotifWe 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.
