It's an inn. Service was great even when we came too early for check in. We had to wait for someone to come by to help us with our luggage before we checked in. That was great. We got to explore Kyoto for a bit before we settled into our room. Nice and clean. Loved our first experience in a tatami mat sleeping area. Bathroom was amazing even though there is no soaking tub. Shower was fantastic. Far walk from subway if you have heavy luggage to roll and lug behind you. If that is not an issue, then you are good to stay here. The place had an old charm to it, but the room you may stay in is new and beautiful.

Genuinely great stay. Uji Tea Inn is a lovely place to spend a few nights or more in Japan if you’re looking for a bit of an ‘authentic traditional’ living situation as opposed to a more western style room/hotel. The staff were lovely and the surrounding town of Uji is a wonderful humble suburban town that has just about everything you may need. I would absolutely stay here again if I were coming back to the Kyoto/Osaka area!

This was a great stay, near a lot of great food options in Uji. The room was wonderful and the staff was lovely. It was harder to find due to it being kind of tucked away with a lot less signage/lighting than i was expecting as the door was locked when we arrived so we were uncertain if we were in the right place.

This is a lovely place to stay if you’re visiting Kyoto. There are two stations within a 15 minute walk, so traveling anywhere is quite easy. There is a kitchen so that you can cook (or in my case, warm up my conbini breakfast), as well as laundry. The staff is very kind and helpful. I really enjoyed staying here away from the hustle and bustle of Kyoto city.
