Hotel Analysis
Based on 5 sites · 1,119 reviews
A traditional ryokan just a 7-minute walk from Kyoto Station. Built in 1839, guests are captivated by the warm welcome and relaxing atmosphere upon arrival.
Reviews across booking sites frequently mention the kaiseki multi-course meals prepared by the owner chef. The delicious seasonal food comes with stories of the ryokan's history and family legacy. Attentive staff and private onsen bath reservations enhance the comfort.
Some find the shared onsen baths, firm futons, and 11 PM curfew inconvenient. Rooms are traditional yet clean and cozy.
