Although the room was spacious and clean, the futons were very uncomfortable. It is in a nice location in Gion, close to beautiful streets, but not so close (15min walk) to a train station. Bring your eye masks as the room is very light in the morning.

Beautiful ryokan in a great location! The staff are so friendly and accommodating and the entire place is very very clean, only complaint is the beds are very uncomfortable for a forigners standards the futon cushion is almost non existent and you will feel like sleeping on hard floor with an uncomfortable pillow.. but otherwise amazing experence!

Disappointing. Not good value for money and not impressed by this Ryohan. We paid a lot for a Japanese Ryohan experience but not worth it. The staffs have very limited English and a bit ignorant with the guests. Difficult to figure out what and how to do in the hotel as a foreigner. Traditional breakfast was not tasty and we all think we can easily get better food elsewhere. Japanese garden is very small and not that pretty. The view is shared by lobby and the only one garden view room. All in all, we don’t think it meet our expectations for a Japanese Ryohan culture experience.

Truly beautiful place, very close to old Kyoto (5 minutes walk to Gion,10 mins walk across river and to the mass of restaurants, 5 mins walk from Nene-no-Michi and associated temples and gardens). Exquisite breakfast, and nice traditional bath.
