Good place!
Very friendly, helpful, and solicitous staff throughout the whole stay. The hotel is not really walking distance from the train station if you have any baggage. The sidewalks are asphalt and we both broke luggage wheels on the walk. The ryokan is in a quieter part of town, which can be good or bad depending on your desires. The facility itself is a little dated but clean and the staff is really so kind. The rooms were well-sized and the amenities sufficient. The tatami mats smell amazing, which is something I hadn't considered! We had the kaiseki dinner and also breakfast which were elaborate and full of interesting and new food items we hadn't had before. Again, this can be good or bad depending on your spirit of adventure. We utilized the onsen, which was clean and useful. If you are seeking a ryokan in Kyoto, I would recommend this one.

Very nice Ryokan with good and clean rooms - only setback was that the meals were served in a dining room rather than in the room itself.

Great traditional ryokan. If you want a gentle introduction to Japanese inns while in Kyoto city centre, you cannot go wrong with this one. We did n't manage to try the public bath, but room and service were excellent. Location is pretty good. There are a number of local "drinking holes" towards the station and a very popular ramen joint just a couple of blocks from the hotel (same street). We walked to the major Kyoto attractions although this might longer than others might willing to walk.

This is a pretty traditional ryokan. It’s pretty basic room and amenities. Spacious room with a nice and clean bathroom which is a must. If you’re looking for an average ryokan experience, you will get it. Definitely delivers for the price.

The place was great. Best thing was the staff. They were so nice and accommodating. I was late for my check in but the staff helped me by waiting to still serve me dinner when I got there. They were waiting out front for me and helped me out all with everything. They were the nicest people. The facilities were great too. Food was delicious. The room was lovely. The onsen was relaxing. I'm very happy with my stay there.

This hotel was lovely! Relaxing in the public bath after a long day seeing the sights was our highlight. The staff was friendly, helpful, and thorough explaining the property and more traditional Japanese elements. We would absolutely recommend this property and will stay again on our next trip.

Very clean and comfortable stay. If want a ryokan experience, this is a good place to stay. However, do note that Kyoto station though walkable, is quite a distance if you don’t take a bus nearby. After a long day out, you will find walking a bit more is a drag. Didn’t get to experience their breakfast as they could not accommodate at arrival (fully booked). Our overall was generally very good. Try it to experience tatami style rooms.

A unique Japanese experience at a ryokan hotel. Our room was so clean and spacious. The selling point is their top notch customer service and hospitality. The hotel was generous with the amenities as well. We will come back.

We booked the traditional style ryokan room, and loved it! I know some westerners might scoff at the mat style bedding in those rooms but they do warn you before you book, and I happened to find it quite charming and comfortable. Staff were so welcoming and the location is a five minute walk to a train station. Lovely hotel and our room was beautiful.
