What an incredible stay! Probably the best experience of our entire trip to Japan. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, even showing us different local matcha varieties used during the meals. If you are visiting Kyoto on your trip to Japan, I would HIGHLY recommend staying at this property for the full Ryokan experience, equipped with a beautiful Onsen, Yukata, and local shrines in Ohara. 10/10 ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin Apr 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A wonderful experience. The property is beautiful, the staff are so attentive to your every need and the meal service was Michelin star worthy. A little out of the way to get to but well worth the trek. Would absolutely recommend to anyone considering this property ##### Justin Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Authentic Japanese experience This hotel is actually far from Kyoto, so be prepared for a very long ride from either the train station or airport. The food was excellent and the room was very basic. Comfortable, but no frills. For the price I was expecting something a little nicer. If you want an authentic Japanese experience, this place is perfect. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monica May 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you are looking for a traditional ryokan and a more remote area, this is the perfect place. Although it is about 45 mins from Kyoto train station, you will not be disappointed. Upon arrival, we were immediatelty greeted by the staff and welcomed with matcha tea while our bags were taken to our rooms. The rooms were very clean and beautifully decorated. Our room featured a private onsen overlooking the mountains. It was absolutely breathtaking. Both dinner and breakfast were amazing! We stayed one night and spent the next morning walking around the small town which was quite quaint and adorable. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Monica Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jun 12, 2019 Wouldn’t let me check in after 5 leaving me with out a hotel room for a night. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eddie Apr 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The highlight of staying in Kyoto. This ryokan is going towards more of the countryside of Kyoto in Ohara but it is definitely worth spending a couple nights in. Yes it is farther away from the main tourist temples but honestly it is so much nicer staying here away from all the tourists and finding hidden gems within Ohara where there are hardly any tourists. The rooms themselves were so serene and peaceful. The onsens always feel amazing especially after long days exploring temples and gardens. The staff and service were beyond accommodating and friendly. My wife had dietary restrictions and they were more than happy to accommodate. Breakfast and dinner is included with each night which is so lovely not having to worry about what to eat for dinner when it is already provided. Our room had a nice view of the garden and koi fish swimming around. I can't say enough about how great it was to stay here and I would highly recommend to anyone I know to stay here. You will receive a unique Kyoto experience from everyone else if you stay here and will never forget! Thank you to the staff, you have made our visit to Japan incredibly memorable. ##### Eddie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly Oct 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities we had an amazing time at Seryo!! the staff was immediately incredibly welcoming and showed us all the amenities and our wonderful room with a perfect garden view. the food was incredible and they even adjusted everything to be vegan for me!! we unfortunately had a less than desired experience at a different ryokan right after our perfect experience at Seryo which just affirmed that Seryo was the right decision!! highly recommend and would love to go back again in the future! ##### Kelly Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Oct 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent hotel staying in ohara in Kyoto No other better than this property in Kyoto Service and food is best!! ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Oct 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stuff ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Akiko Sep 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 近場で久々の家族旅行に料理旅館とのことで料理を楽しみにゆっくりできたらと思い宿泊させてもらいました。みなさんスタッフさんは親切でお部屋も露天風呂がついていていつでもちょうどいい温度で入れて懐石料理も季節を感じられる料理で満足です。又機会があれば宿泊したいです。 ##### Akiko Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Samuele Sep 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Das Personal war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Hotel ist etwas weit weg von der Bushaltestelle und es geht Berg hoch bis zum Hotel. Deshalb empfiehlt es sich beim Hotel anzurufen und nach einem Transfer zu fragen. Auf dem Rückweg haben wir den Transfer in Anspruch genommen. Die Onsen waren nach Geschlechtern getrennt (so wie es in Japan üblich ist). Insgesamt waren die gemeinsamen Onsen aber sauber, einladend und schön. Das Essen ist typisch japanisch. Der Shabu Shabu hat uns gut geschmeckt, auch wenn es etwas Übung bedarf die Zutaten rechtzeitig rein und raus zu tun. Das Schönste war auf jeden Fall der kleine japanische Garten mit dem Koi-Teich hinter den Zimmern. Alles in allem hat uns das gut gefallen im Hotel ##### Samuele Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yun Jeong Sep 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 한적한 교토 료칸 분위기를 즐기기에 너무 좋았음. 직원들이 너무 친절했고 산젠인, 호센인과도 가까워 주변산책히기에도 위치가 매우 좋음 ##### Yun Jeong Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasmine Jun 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Me and my partner had an amazing experience here.

Just a heads-up: this is a traditional Japanese inn with public baths separated by gender, and bathing is done nude. ##### Humay Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### HAE MIN Apr 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 스텝들도 매우 친절하고 가이세키도 정갈하고 맛있었습니다. 대욕장은 조금 작아요! ##### HAE MIN Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Staci Mar 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This Ryokan is exceptional, the baths, the food, the property, and the kind staff!
