The property is beautiful, the staff are really attentive, food is delicious and it's right near lots of restaurants and a subway (about 5min walk) it's is a nice a quiet location but super convenient.
Great location walking distance to trains, shops and restaurants. Wonderful staff and spotless accommodation. Wonderful Ryokan stay perfect for our Japan trip! Would stay here again! Great experience!
The hotel and room were beautiful. The staff were very kind and helpful and the hotel is in a great central location. I would definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Kyoto.
This was the most spacious apartment. We had 6 adults and had room to move which was great.
Beds were comfy and there was everything you needed. Check in is self serve so just have to work that out and you are all good to go.
Our stay at the Ebisuya was fantastic! We stayed in the large room with the king size bed and additional beds in the tatami room. My son loved the tatami space and said it was extremely comfortable. The room was super clean, and the in room washer/dryer was a huge bonus for us. The bathroom was lovely with a huge bathtub, and a waterfall shower, we loved taking turns soaking after a long day of walking. The location was perfect, 10 min walk from the busy downtown center of Kyoto but the hotel felt so quiet and peaceful. The front desk staff were super friendly and helpful with great local recommendations as well. Highly recommend staying here if you’re going to Kyoto.
The room was excellent, and all of the staff were awesome. The staff were very pleasant and worked with us on trying to find kimono rentals. I will recommend this hotel to families and friends who plan on visiting Kyoto. Plus I would love to thank Tomo san for making our stay memorable. Please give machiya hotels a try. Sleeping on a futon In a tatami room was one of the highlights of our trip, and for those who don't care for sleeping on the floor you can get a western style room that is just as great as the traditional room. We stayed in both.
We had a wonderful stay at the Machiya Ebisuya. It's a bit far from Kyoto Station but still walkable, and really central to much they Kyoto has to offer. The room and amenities were great.
Room was the right amount of space for three travelers. It was very cozy and staff were friendly and gave good advice in regards to food and transportation. Highly recommend!
Fantastic location with a stunning building in traditional Japanese style.
I highly recommend this place. The neighborhood is very well served, with convenience stores, restaurants, shops, and a supermarket all nearby.
Everything is easily accessible and within walking distance.
Everything was amazing, except the main bed, which was very firm. The staff were very helpful and assisted us with all our enquiries. Great location, loads of restaurants and shops nearby which was great.
Loved our stay here while we were in Kyoto! Staff was so welcoming and friendly - the rooms were clean and modern. The location was perfect, close enough to walk to all the places we wanted to and on a very quiet street!
