A traditional ryokan by the Uji River in Uji, Kyoto. Guests frequently mention the balcony views of the Uji River and spacious rooms.
Reviews across sites repeatedly praise the 'spacious and clean onsen' and 'friendly staff'. The riverside location makes it easy to walk to Byodoin Temple and Uji Shrine, with many noting the peaceful atmosphere for relaxation. Families and couples especially highlight 'healing with river views from the balcony'.
