Staff can speak mandarin and rented bike for us, giving directions. It has kitchen to cook fresh food we bought from a grocery store nearby.

We had a great stay, inn is located a bit away from the more touristy area of Uji which we enjoyed. Our room was immaculate and the host was extremely kind and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely will be coming back here! Uji is such a beautiful small town with many hidden gems to discover. The staff were extremely accomodaing and easy to talk to, even with my broken Japanese! They were happy to tell me about the area, its history and key places to visit while I was there. Can't wait to come back next year and spend more time adventuring around this little gem ❤️

Comfortable room!
The room is clean and comfy; hosts are nice and the common area is tranquil. Room is on the smaller side especially the washroom. Only downside is that the curtain blind in our room is not blackout so it gets bright 5AM in the morning; it’s an older building so soundproof is lacking. We still enjoyed our 3-night stay and will come back without a heartbeat!

Cozy Inn in Uji
It was an absolutely amazing stay at Uji Tea Inn. The owners are really friendly and welcoming. It’s as if I was staying with a host family rather than an inn. Throughout my stay, I felt looked after which was great as I was travelling alone. And while it may not be luxurious as a hotel chain, I enjoyed my stay here more than any of the 3 star hotels I stayed at for the rest of my travels. The rooms are traditional tatami mat and futon. It may not be for everyone especially those used to springy or cushy beds but it is the traditional sleeping arrangement. I actually prefer futons as I found that the hotel rooms in Japan with western beds are way too small and I struggle to open my luggage. This inn used to be a machiya prior to renovation. The owners kept the essence of it in tact, so you get a mix of traditional architecture with modern day convenience. Renovations were only done shortly prior to covid so everything (toilets, showers) still looks new. That said, the rooms are not as sound proof as those in concrete buildings, but it is to be expected with traditional buildings. Do bring a pair of earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Generally it’s quiet past 9pm and remains so until 6am when people start to wake up and get ready for the day. All in all, I highly recommend anyone looking to visit Uji to stay for a fuss-free, local experience. And if you need recommendations, the owners are always happy to chat. Thank you again, Hayashi-san and family!

リビングに監視カメラがあるのが気になりました。ただ、自由に使用して良いので、自炊も可能です。近くに任天堂ミュージアムがオープンするので、更に人気になると思います。元が古民家の長屋なので、声や音は筒抜けです。中国出身のオーナーは温かみのある方でした。チェックインがもう少し早いと嬉しいです。歴史ある古民家をリノベーションし宿として使用する事は大変素敵だと思います。

舒服的住宿環境
住宿環境很乾淨（特別是旅館的毛巾令人印象深刻，一般民宿的毛巾常比較陳舊，但這間旅館的毛巾清潔得很乾淨，宛如全新的），周遭環境也很安靜。旅館在小巷子裡，不過如果有開車的話停車很方便，就在旅館對面有一小片空地可停車，收費600日圓/天。旅館老闆娘說中文，很親切。隔天想去餐廳用餐，請老闆娘幫忙訂位，老闆娘幫忙打了好幾通電話。入住當天有比較大的房間，老闆娘直接幫我們換到大房間，沒有額外收費。

「快適」より「安らげる」お宿でした
急な引っ越しできっと全てがバタバタするだろうし、せめて夜だけでも休めるところをと思い利用させていただきました。何より、子供を連れての利用だったので、それをふまえた上でのいろいろな配慮、本当にありがとうございました。おかげで、ゆったり過ごすことができました。 「快適」に過ごさせていただいたのはもちろんのこと、「心から休まる」「心から落ち着く」といった言葉がふさわしいお宿でした。入り口からそんな雰囲気で、昼間のバタバタで疲れてしまい、でも夜、宿に戻るとすーっと肩の力が抜け、リラックスできました。 そういったお宿だけあり、スタッフの方々も、こちらが緊張しないように穏やかに対応してくださり、ありがたかったです。 ゆったりと心が安らげ、ゆっくりと時間が過ぎていく、そんな場所でした。 次の機会には、スタッフの方ともぜひお話したりもしたいので、また利用したいと思います。 引っ越しのバタバタで利用から日がたってしまい、お伝えするのが遅くなりすみません。本当にありがとうございました！

古民家をリノベした様な作りで、訪日客を想定している感じの作りでした。 設備は新しく、清潔にされていましたのでとても良かったです。 ただし、ホテル等とは異なり、他の部屋の話し声が、聞き取れない程度に聞こえるので、その辺りが嫌な人には向かないと思います。
