We wanted to experience a night in a Ryokan. This structure was amazing and welcomed us in a unique way. Welcome drink (very appreciated given the hot weather) and typical kaiseki dinner served in our room. Everything was perfect.

Set just next to Yasaka-jinja, the location of this ryokan is perfect. I cannot recommend this stay more, particularly for those looking for a traditional ryokan experience. The staff were lovely, food delicious, and the rooms were exceptionally clean. A must for Kyoto!
