The location is perfect. Only 3 minutes walk to Kiyamachi dori, a old street along the Takase river, which is a famous location for Sakura viewing if you visit Japan by April. The hotel is by far my most favourite hotel in Japan. It feels like home. The room is spacious and comfort.

Haruka-san is a very welcoming person and is always there if you need anything. Staying here truly feels like living in Japan, not just like staying in a hotel. If you want to avoid crowded places while still having good connections, this is the perfect place to be.

We had a wonderful stay. The hosts are very friendly and helpful, giving us useful advice on how to move around the town. Emiko speaks very good English. The hotel room looks just like in the photos posted on their website, and everything is very clean. The breakfast was fresh and slightly different each morning. The hotel is also well placed, just a few minutes walking from the bus station and the Keihan train Line (which reaches many touristic objectives in the city and up to Osaka).

It is friendly, cosy, very helpful staffs. We are very satisfied with the apartment. It is located in a quiet street with traditional houses, but also very convenient. The apartment is spacious. For improvement, we suggest to have a mirror outside the bathroom too.

Everything was great, the staff, (I think father and son) are exceptionally helpful and friendly. The location is very near to the most beautiful temples in the city, it has few bikes you can use as well, and a bus stop around the corner.

I experienced the highest standards of hospitality at this beautiful traditional ryokan. Extremely kind owners who tried their best to accommodate my needs and exceed my expectations. Morio San and Yoshiko San are like my family. They also have a cute puppy Fu Chan. Top quality room and facilities too. Highly recommended. It will be one of your best memories of Kyoto!
