The staff were so kind and accommodating, and very attentive to all our questions and special requests, even helping with luggage delivery to our next hotel. We loved the traditional Japanese-style accommodations and onsen! The location is perfect for easy public transportation access and walkable to old Kyoto and the Gion district.

I recently stayed at Kamogawa-kan Inn and had a generally pleasant experience. The highlight of the stay was undoubtedly the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was beautifully prepared and among the best I’ve had. The inn is clean and well-maintained, though the facilities do feel somewhat dated. While the futon provided an authentic touch, it was a bit too firm for my comfort. Overall, Kamogawa-kan offers a genuine traditional experience, and I would recommend it to those seeking cultural immersion with some minor considerations.

A delight!

This place was lovely. The location is great, the food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly. The beds are just straight up futons, so this should go without saying, but they were very firm — just something to be aware of if you need more comfort while traveling.

A humble Kyoto experience! Many local traditions were highlighted during our stay, from the traditional breakfast, futon bedding and friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed the hotel amenities, including the onsen. The hotel was located very close to the Nishiki market and shopping districts, as well as train and bus stops close to major attractions (eg Fushimi Inari). We recommend staying here for a true cultural experience in the heart of the action in Kyoto!

Perfect locations with a lot of shopping and dining options around. It’s right next to the river and metro. We can see river from the room so it was a nice bonus. Staff was super polite and friendly. The dinners were excellent and plentiful. There’s a drink place with good appetizer type of food 2 doors diwn that was very good, reasonable and convenient. Domo Arigato!

Awesome food experience

I stayed a night to trip a more traditional Japanese experience, this was very good. The staff were very friendly and very polite. I had the full dinner and breakfast which was by far the best part of my stay. It was great to dress in traditional style clothes for the meals. The futon bed however wasn’t something I would try again just not enough for sleeping on for a full night. Overall very much enjoyed my stay here if you stay definitely opt for the full meal options.

Traditional stay hotel, room was pretty big for Japan, but think I'm to old for Traditional stay, found beds very hard on the floor & getting up & down from the dinning table was a bit of effort.😊 Breakfast was very interesting, probably not for most kids, but we enjoyed it. Staff were very friendly, hotel was close to food, drinks, shopping & sightseeing, also close to metro. Definitely a once in a life time experience...

This is our first time staying at ryokan style hotel and we love this hotel. It is not the best looking interior (lobby and hallways) but the accommodation and experience will make your stay great. They even have a small sento at the basement for the guests. They offer breakfast but we didn’t have it because we usually leave before the breakfast was served. Other things we like is it is very close to public transportation, both bus and trains. Restaurants and convenient stores are just few steps away from the hotel. Few minutes walk to Nishiki Market and Kyoto Pontocho. Gion is a bit far if you walk but there is a bus that passes the hotel going there. The staffs are very friendly and courteous. If we are going back to Kyoto, we are definitely going to book this hotel again.

The Kamogawa-Kan Inn was the best hotel we stay in during our trip to Japan. The location is very convenient in relation to mass transit, restaurants and the tourist sites. What makes this place stand out is all the extra touches to make this a traditional Japanese style inn. The room had a tatami floor. There is a public onsen downstairs. But the best part was the food. We had breakfast every morning at the on-site restaurant. These were amongst the best meals we had on our trip. Each day different and meals that we were happy to savor and enjoy. If you want to feel like you are in a more traditional environment rather than just another western style hotel - especially in Kyoto - we highly recommend the Kamogawa-Kan Inn.

일본의 전통 다다미와 가정식을 즐기세요.

일본 정통 호텔을 경험하고 싶어서 4박 5일중에 하루를 묵었습니다. 주변 관광지의 중심에 있어서 접근성 좋습니다. 바로 옆에 강가도 있어서 주변 풍경도 좋고 시장도 가깝습니다. 다만, 호텔에서 기본적으로 제공하는 물조차 없어서 조금 아쉬웠습니다. 맞은편 Lawson에서 생명수 사서 마셨네요. 대중탕이 지하에 있어서 조금 꿉꿉한 냄새가 나지만 탕의 상태는 좋습니다. 특히, 사람이 별로 없어서 좋았습니다. 거의 혼자 탕을 쓰는 느낌... 호텔은 오래된듯 보이지만 정통을 많이 살리려고 노력한 흔적이 보였습니다. 호텔에 도착하면 다다미 위에 중간에 테이블과 의자가 구비되어 있었고, 밖에 나갔다가 저녁때 들어오니 테이블은 한쪽 구석으로 치우고 가운데 이불이 가지런히 정리가 되어 깔려 있었습니다. 아침은 일본 정통 가정식으로 나오는데 설명을 친절하게 잘 해주시고 맛도 좋았습니다.

We got there the day Typhoon 8 struck Osaka and Kyoto. We were able to escape Osaka and get to Kyoto at 9AM. We reached the Kamogawa-kan knowing that check-in time would have been at 3PM, but considering that they where expecting us, that every single business in town was closed and that it was pouring and the wind was blowing at 40-50km/h, we asked if we could wait in the hotel lobby. They told us they would keep our luggage but that we couldn't wait in the hotel. After check-in we went to its public bath. We were the first to get there and after we started showering in order to enter the public pool, a Japanese person entered the room with their child. We finished showering and got into the bath, then they started showering; when the kid was done the father told him to wait to get into the bath and kept showering.. for 15 minutes, the whole time we stayed in the bath. The instant we stepped out of the bath the father allowed the child to go in the bath and joined him immediately. Later we were taking the elevator and on its way to the ground floor it made a stop at a floor where a hotel person held the elevator door open for two guests to come in with us, another parent and their teenage son. The father looked straight into our eyes without moving a muscle for a whole minute, refusing to enter the elevator with us. The hotel person picked up and let the elevator go, apologizing to us for holding the door. This is the collection of racist experiences this hotel offered us

ご飯が美味しい老舗の宿

三条の繁華街に近く便利な宿です。宿に入れば静かな空間となり落ち着きます。私の利用した部屋は、水回り（トイレ・お風呂）が古かったので、そこは気になりました。食事は朝食だけでしたが、とても美味しかったです。良い老舗の宿だと思いました。
