8/10 Very good

It is a 20 min taxi drive out of kyoto which costs around 5,000 yen. The properly is a very old building. However because it is a traditional ryokan, it fits that image and hence it's fine. Do include the full board option where they take you to a riverside location 5 min away on a shuttle bus. That location is spectacular for a kaseki meal. They have geishas do a short performance there too by the riverside. The meal itself is nothing home to write about but the experience is great. I would only recommend a maximum 1 night stay. Use the private bath option for 4,000 yen.

Be warned
I’m no expert by any means, but having had the opportunity to experience two ryokans this trip (first in Osaka, then Kyoto) with similar prices but vastly different quality, I feel compelled to compare and comment. Service: Generally felt rushed during our stay. Check-in was technically at 3pm but shuttle was at 4pm, so we did not arrive until 4:30. Similarly, check out was at 10am, but shuttle was at 9:20. At breakfast, there was a sign nudging you to pay before 10am as it gets busy then. For an experience that’s suppose to be relaxing, this took away from it. Room: In dire need of renovation. Room was visibly old and had a musty smell from the moment of walking in. There would be whiffs of piss when the AC wasn’t circulating air. In-room baths were stained and scary to look at, let alone use Bath: Public bath was tiny so naturally, everyone opts to pay extra to book a slot in one of the two private baths on the property. Depending on when you check in, you may not get a slot until the next morning. That said, the private bath had incredible views and was the highlight of this experience, for sure. Food: Mediocre at best compared our first experience, which we had in-room. Presentation was good, but flavors were just a bit off. Breakfast was better than dinner. All in all, our Osaka ryokan experience felt like luxury hotel with spa with authenticity while this felt more like a beat down budget hotel turned tourist trap.

Property with No hot spring
There is no hot spring (onsen) provided by this property. It’s just ordinary hot spa (bath) provided. I plan to enjoy hot spring rather than hot spa of which I can easily take one in any gymnasium room. I am disappointed although with friendly staff in the property. The meal provided is acceptable.

Everything was amazing, from the service before we even walked through the door! Love the staff here, they even offered to drive us to the convenience store to pick up snacks for us, super sweet. The view is very beautiful, definitely reserve a private bathtub!

SECOND STAY AT MOMIJIYA
It's our second stay in two years. This time, we stayed in the main building. It did not seem full as there were about 5 tables occupied for meals in the dining hall. The last time, we stayed at the Annex which is in a ravine next to a river. The Annex was more secluded and tucked away, with private in-room onsen. The main building is more accessible and fronts the main road. The staff were courteous and attentive. The food was average. The shared onsen in the main building was very small, enough for one person. Overall, it was a pleasant relaxing stay in the hills above Arashiyama and not very far from Kyoto.

Favorite part of our trip to Japan
My wife and I stayed at Momiji-ya Ryokan for 2 nights, and had a fantastic time. The service was impeccable, the rooms were clean and spacious (although foreign western guests may still find the rooms smaller than expected), and the food was amazing. The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating to us, even though we did not speak much Japanese. I can't recommend this ryokan highly enough.

너무 친절하고 좋았습니다 다만 공용 목욕탕에 여탕인데 남자 직원이 들어와서 너무 놀랐습니다 여탕에 왜 남자 직원이 배치되어 일하는지 모르겠습니다 가격이 비싼데 프라이빗탕에 추가 4000엔을 더줘야 이용가능합니다 교토에 이만한 료칸이 없어서 이용할만합니다 석식은 셔틀을 타고가서 계곡이 보이는 뷰에서 밥을 먹었고 조식은 료칸건물에서 먹었는데 조식이 맛있었습니다

Slitet hotell som behöver en upplyftning
Tyvärr kändes hotellet gammalt och slitet med heltäckningsmattor. Själva bad-delen var väldigt liten. Maten var väldigt vacker men inte speciellt god. Omgivningarna var fantastiska.

노천 온천에서도 공용 목욕탕에서도 숲뷰를 제대로 즐길 수 있어서 엄청나게 힐링이 되었어요. 석식은 좀 별로여서 좀 돈이 들더라도 비싼메뉴를 선택하는게 좋을 것 같아요
