Great stay
Matthew, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely beautiful room, onsen, and the meals were amazing. Highly recommend spending a night here. Staff was very nice and patient. Might be difficult for kids, but is a very romantic and well-thought getaway from the busy downtown.

10/10 Excellent

We loved staying here! The suite was beautiful, the service was brilliant and the breakfast delicious. We only wish they could have accommodated us for dinner. We also highly recommend trying the bath house upstairs. Absolutely loved it here !
Hoi Sin, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff was simply amazing! They were so kind and helpful. Sleeping on the traditional tatami floors was a cool experience. Trying the traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner was also an experience that everyone should try. The Onsen was great, it was on the 6th floor and you have a great view of Kyoto at night. We definitely recommend staying at this wonderful Ryokan.

The cutest Ryokan ever!! A perfect way to get introduced to traditions of Japanese culture. The staff were so lovely and helpful. Enjoyed every second of the stay.

10/10 Excellent

Wanted a getaway from all the hustle and bustle and to experience a Ryokan. Great accommodation. Bus stop across the street, walking distance to the metro stop. Dinner and breakfast available and an Onsen on site. Staff is so kind and sweet, we loved our time here.

Great experience, excellent service from the staff. They were kind enough to securely store my luggage hours before check-in and hours after check-out. Room was very neat, with all the necessary amenities.Great ryokan experience, definitely recommend!
Nicolas, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Our experience was absolutely amazing. The staff were so nice and accommodating. The kaiseiki were excellent. Highly recommended.
Quynh, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

It was an experience I enjoyed, but I can't say I got the best sleep on the tatamis. The floor layout was inconvenient, how from the toilet you had to walk across the whole room to then wash your hands. The room was extremely tidy and i loved the seating overlooking the window. The public bathhouse, in the hotel, was amazing and while I'm not eager to sleep on the floor again, I'm forever going to be on the lookout for sentos and onsens.
Mary, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We loved our stay at Ryokufuso! The bus took us straight from Kyoto Station to the front of the building, and the other bus stops that take you to the tourist hotspots were a <10 minute walk away. Despite being a small ryokan, our room was very spacious and the staff were super sweet and friendly. When we arrived one of them (I wish I remembered his name!) gave us a quick tour of our suite and how to use the amenities. They also have an onsen to enjoy even if you have tattoos or piercings, which we really appreciated. The next time I’m in Kyoto I’m for sure staying here!
Sharon, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff was over the top friendly and helpful. They allowed us to store our bags before and after check in/check out so that we could go explore Kyoto without having to haul our stuff around. They were also very helpful to help us acquire a taxi big enough for 6 and provide local restaurant recommendations. We were on the road side and so the rooms had quite a bit of traffic noise, but other than that everything was great.
Brittany, 1-night trip
