Great place and awesome staff.
Great place to stay and amazing service. We’re very kind and understanding. The rooftop bath is amazing. Have stayed here before. New people are managing it and doing a good job.

The location was great - right next to the picturesque areas called Sannen-zaka and Ninen-saka. The ryokan is quiet and comfortable and it's a nice treat to soak in the bath on the rooftop after a long day of exploring. The staff are wonderful and very helpful in suggesting 'key' sites and restaurants. Also, don't miss the breakfasts!

Great hotel
It was a fantastic experience in Kyoto and in this hotel. We experienced Japanese style roof-bath, seeing the night scene of Kyoto. Two young staff are friendly and professional. Rooms are a little small but it was enough to settle down. I will definitely recommend all my friend to stay there if they visit Kyoto.

Very near to Kiyomizudera temple. Location is a bit difficult to locate. not too convenient to travel to because most likely you will often travel to Gion for dining.

Great location!
This was our first stay in a traditional "Japanese Style" hotel. The staff was very helpful. The rooms are small and do not have much in them but after a couple of days you get used to it. The bath and view make it worth spending a night or two.

夕食なしが京都の相場?
オーナーの接客やおすすめスポットなども教えて頂きその点では満足しているが、エアコンの暖房がある為か毛布がなかったので、二組ある掛布団を毛布代わりにして就寝した。寒くはなかったが今一つ眠れなかった。個室のお風呂も私には少しぬるめと感じ、宿の場所もわかりづらかったので予め直通の電話番号を知っておけばもっとスムーズにたどり着けたのではないか?と思っている。夕食は外食となり朝食は食べるか食べないかの選択制で一泊一万円を超えるのは私自身はお高く感じてしまうが、京都ではこれが相場のようですので宿に到着する前に夕食をとるようになさったほうがよいと思います。

Maison d'hôte recommandée kyoto
Très bonne situation dans le quartier de Gion, facilement accessible depuis la gare de Kyoto apres un bus, juste à côté de rue commerçante. Un hôte très sympathique qui n'hésite pas à se plier en 4 pour faire des réservations pour cérémonie du the ou encore dans des restaurants.

Hotel with traditional room but not a ryokan at al
The hotel is clean and the traditional room is very nice. The bath on the toproof is excellent. But the hotel is not a ryokan. There is no rule, no real staff, a young guy was in charge of the whole hotel. He was very nice but did the minimum. The reception was basic, no instructions were given. The hair dryer has been used in our small floor (shared bathroom for 3 rooms) at midnight.

It was really difficult to find the way to the Inn, and that area is absolutely quiet (nothing to do) after 6pm. If you enjoy quiet night, it is your choice. Otherwise, the stay is comfortable and the Japanese breakfast is super.
