Amazing first time experience of Kyoto

The hotel is in an amazing location, especially for Sakura viewing with the shrine/park just behind it and the viewing spots on the river only a short walk away. The hotel staff are friendly and very accommodating, helping me with locating specialised shops in the area and in giving me directions and advice on how to make the most of what was a short trip. The traditional Ryokan rooms are clean, very comfortable and in my opinion beautiful, although the private bathroom facilities are a little dated. The breakfast provided was again traditional and tasty but there is only a salad bar option for those of you who are used to/want a more continental/American style breakfast. The public Onsen at the hotel was an incredible first time experience, with the outdoor pool option (small) and views from the top floor. I would thoroughly recommend using the Inn as a base to return to for those who wish to use their time there to explore Kyoto and the surrounding area.

Great inexpensive Ryokan

My wife and I had a great time at this Ryokan. It's A short walk away from some great sights im Higashiyama, the staff is very friendly, and the amenities are good. It's not super fancy by any means, but everything is very clean and the room was very nice looking - exactly what we wanted in a Ryokan.

편하게 잘 쉬다 왔어요~^^

친구와친한형과 같이 가게된 여행. 1분거리에 야사카신사가 있고!! 한...15분?20분 정도 가면 기요미즈데라가 나오고~~위치적으로 너무 좋았어요. 숙박도 너무 아늑한 다다미방, 방 안내해주면서 차를 끓여주시고, 야츠바시와 차맛초콜렛도 구비해놓아 좋았습니다. 바깥 창문에 기온인마치의 모습이 보이고!! 바깥 둘러보다 저녁에 들어오니 방안에 깔려있는 이불과 침구들~^^ 너무 편하게 다들 숙면했답니다. 저희는 내부 욕실이 딸려있는 방이었구요. 거의 밤 11시 가까이 되서 들어왔는데, 다행이 대욕장이 아직 오픈되어 있어 욕탕에서 피로도 풀고, 조그맣지만 매력있는 소형노천탕도 들가보고 너무 좋았어요~!! 다음에도 교토 들리면 기온후쿠주미인!! 들리겠습니다~ 아!! 조식!! 조식 너무 맘에 들어요~ 깔끔하고, 맛있는 간결한 조식~! 강추!

Clean, traditional hotel

We enjoyed this hotel, especially the traditional rooms and traditional, formal Japanese breakfasts. The rooms have a tea table, and if you drink tea (we don't), they will do a traditional tea service with you during your stay. They set up your futons in the evening. If you eat the breakfast at the hotel, it is a formal, sit-down breakfast at a time you select in advance. If you are not there right on time they will call your room. We had the western and Japanese breakfasts. Both were filling, delicious and very interesting. They require you to turn in your room key each time you leave the hotel which was off putting at first. The hotel is on a major street in the heart of the older neighborhood with lots of shops and restaurants and a large shrine. The nearest subway stops are a 15 or so min walk to or from the hotel which is a pain with luggage. We decided to take a taxi back to the train station. Most of the hotel staff do not speak English, but the front desk staff can communicate pretty well and helped us look up places to visit and prices for baseball tickets in Osaka. Plus, they went outside and flagged down taxis for us, telling the drivers where to take us. Bathrooms fixtures and rooms are dated (pink porcelain sink and toilet), but everything is very clean. Rooms are large. Wifi worked well.

Good for exposure to a traditional ryokan experience. In-room food was pretty good, and presented beautifully. The personnel were as helpful as possible given the lack of English. Great view overlooking the mountains directly across from a huge temple complex. Would definitely recommend for one night.

Great service and location

Gion Fukuzumi is a great place to experience a traditional ryokan - and great value considering the normal cost to stay at other ryokans in old Kyoto. We were made to feel very welcome and enjoyed our stay. It is also within easy walking distance of the old teahouses (where you may glimpse Maikos going about their business) and shops, and also easy reach of the station/bus stops to access all the main sights.
