“This traditional ryokan, established in 1953, stands out for its dedication to personalized Japanese hospitality. The serene garden offers a quiet escape from Kyoto's urban environment, while the healthy, locally-sourced breakfast provides an authentic taste of the region. In my opinion, it's a unique blend of cultural heritage and comfort.”

Excellent Ryokan Experience
attentive service onsen hotel sweet experience
The staff provided excellent, attentive service . I especially appreciated the tattoo-friendly onsen located on the hotel. The tea ceremony, hosted by the owners, provided a very sweet experience. They were kind and helpful.
The breakfast was slightly subpar considering the price.
