Very beautiful room. Feels like a room that you can only get in Japan and not anywhere else in the world. Within walking distance to Nishiki market.

Fantastic service. They really bent over backwards to accommodate us and was our favorite stay while in Japan.

Just a turn away from a busy kyoto downtown street and there was village kimarachi. Such an idyllic, peaceful, beautiful and a welcoming sight. The staff was very helpful and kind. We were very taken by the sincerity of the staff. It created such a warm and cozy atmosphere. The villa type room/house itself was very beautiful. After a long day exploring the city the outdoor tub was just the thing. I was a little worried about the hardness of sleeping on a matress on the tatami but I actually had a really sound and restful sleep! Wakin up to the sun shining thru the ricepaper doors was just an amazing way to start the day. Breakfast bento was quite simple but very tasty, nothing to complain and well worth the money. Stayed just one night on our way from Osaka to Tokyo but me and my friend both agreed it was one of the highlights of the trip.

Absolutely magical retreat in the middle of the city. Staff was kind and patient with check-in, explaining the features of our room, and letting us leave our luggage after check-out for a few hours. Grounds are tranquil and gorgeous, and the room was serene and well designed. Outdoor shower and soaking tub were A !

To put it simply my stay at Village Kiramachi completely blew away my expectations. The room/property is beautiful and well maintained , the staff is all very friendly and can speak both Japanese and English ,the property is located very nicely in relation to major shopping areas and the local train station. Another interesting this was that this property also offers a tasty breakfast for 2200Yen and a chance to experience a Japanese Tea ceremony for FREE! One thing I really liked was that one the first day the staff went out of their way to make sure that I knew how to get around Kyoto and showed me where the best places to tour/eat were. Lastly all the staff I interacted with all spoke both Japanese and English well (especially Naru). As someone currently learning the language, this made things easier for me when I got stuck in Japanese and I really appreciated this.

My girlfriend and I decided to spend one night at Village Kiramachi during our stay in the Kyoto area. It is strategically located if you want to go around and visit the main spots of the city. The staff is great, very welcoming, efficient and helpful. The room itself is very spacious and comfy. If you ever decide to stay there, I would also suggest you order in advance their amazing breakfast.

The cobblestone street was very unique, located in the middle of a busy City block. It was close to both subway station and public bus stop.

Our stay at Village Kiramachi was outstanding. From the beautiful accommodations to the incredible service, we were wowed from beginning to end. The bento box breakfasts for purchase are also delicious and I would recommend doing them at least once for the experience as well as convenience of having a wonderful meal in your own accommodations. Five stars!

Amazing traditional ryokan in Kyoto! We stayed in the room with the balcony and loved relaxing out there before OR after a day of shopping and walking around. The Main Street is walkable to shopping and Gion and you turn off to this lovely quiet traditional street to this ryokan. There are also ramen and other popular eats in the neighborhood. Aside from our room being clean and spacious, the service was top notch. The staff is pretty fluent in English and answered all our questions quickly (even through the hotels booking site). She also provided excellent dinner recommendations (even helped us book them)! At the end of our stay, we also got a ride to Kyoto station. We highly recommend this place to stay!

The ryokan is lovely, the staff was super nice and the room with outdoor shower and bathtub great. A great stay in the two floor ryokan. About a 10 minute walk from the Nishiki Market so eventhough in a busier area, still not too far from the nice little streets.

The personal attention they showered us, helped with calling the airline for personal issues, assisted in finding the pottery fair that was going on in Kyoto. A nice surprise consisting of a free Japanese style breakfast, tea ceremony and a car ride to Kyoto station on our way back to Tokyo. Very nice and warm staff.
