Honestly top notch place. The room was beautifully traditional, comfortable and I love the small things they had. Like they had fresh tea for us to make in the room, snacks to have with the tea etc… the staff was exceptional and very warm/friendly. I would recommend this 100 out of 100 times if you want a traditional stay

We had the most fabulous stay at this cosy and well-located Ryokan. The staff were incredibly sweet and service-minded, and the lady owner was such a treat!, warm, welcoming, helpful, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had the most perfect honeymoon stay. Our room was spotless and charming. We still talk about the matcha cookie from JAL that was specially ordered for us. We will surely be back next time we are in Kyoto!
