Vannesa, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This hotel was amazing. It is old, but you feel like you are staying in a part of history. Everyone was very nice and the breakfast was amazing. We loved the true Japanese breakfast. We will stay at this hotel again when we go back to Kyoto. There is a wonderful pizza place around the corner as well.

Roselyne, 1-night trip

Beautiful property with very kind staff!
Nicholas, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The hotel is not worth the money — the price is overrated. You feel more like you’re staying in someone’s private home than in a hotel, with constant oversight from the management. They are not very welcoming to children. The rooms are small, and I was charged three times the usual tax. On the positive side, the breakfasts are good, and the sauna is nice.
Rustem, 1-night trip

Excellent service, location! Incredible cherry blossom viewing!
Camilla Matias, 2-night trip

The property was beautiful and the staff was courteous and very gracious hosts. A gem within kyoto.
aaron, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

we recently stayed here for 3 nights. the property is very close to nanzen-ji, in a charming area of kyoto, away from some of the very crowded tourist areas such as gion. the early morning walk to the nanzenji is one of the highlights of our stay in kyoto. it has a beautiful garden and very friendly staff. one thing i did not like is the bathroom in our room is really small and basic, reminds me of a company dormitory i once stayed in japan. overall it has been a very good experience.
Otto, 3-night trip

Jaylee, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The restaurant and meals are exceptional, providing a traditional dining experience in a beautiful setting. The food was exquisite and I would highly recommend trying their breakfast and sukiyaki dinner. The baths were also excellent with good reservation system. Rooms were more than adequate and comfortable. The private shower was appreciated and the amenities were thoughtful. Staff were delightful and so nice. It was a wonderful experience to stay here in Kyōto.
