Peaceful and serene
Staying at the Ryokan is like stepping back in time. The building is beautiful, and the staff are fantastic. I’ve never experienced hospitality like it! Highly recommend the Japanese breakfast and trying out the baths.

Hospitalidade conforto em um lugar histórico.
Fomos recebidos com uma grande hospitalidade pela equipe, nos apresentaram a casa e contaram um pouco da história. O quarto tem uma vista linda pro jardim. O café fa manhã é incrível, talvez uma das melhores refeições que tivemos no Japão. Gostaria de ter ficado mais noite,

If you're going to Kyoto, you need to stay here!
The staff (especially Ando!) were EXCEPTIONAL!!!! They waited on us hand and foot, helped us with anything we asked for, and they even noticed my father wasn't getting around very well and so they brought in risers for his bed and put his bed up a couple of feet without us even asking or requesting or saying anything at all! They were beyond kind, thoughtful, and everything about the stay was truly enjoyable. The location was great, the Japanese Bath was amazing, they service was among the best service I've ever received at any hotel/accommodation ever, and it was just a wonderful Ryokan experience.
Nothing I can even think of.

We are planning a second visit
Even in an old and beautiful city like Kyoto, the Toshiharu Ryokan is an absolute gem. Located in a quiet neighborhood in central Kyoto, it’s about a 20-minute walk from the Kamogawa. We only stayed in Kiku's room for a short night, but the kind greetings and words from the hostess made us just feel like home. Maybe the respectable lady use some magic or I can’t explain how could they preserve this one-hundred-and-sixty house so perfectly and intact. We went to bed very late, excitedly observing every ancient and elegant Japanese detail. Breakfast the next morning was also delicious. We highly recommend this ryokan to every tourist and definitely hope to visit again.
The soundproofing in kiku room is not particularly good, if someone goes to the bathroom late at night, you can hear the wooden floor crunching. But I think it’s inevitable in a house with such a long history and doesn’t really matter.

A beautiful traditional Japanese Ryokan
Amazing Japanese breakfast served in the room. This is a traditional Japanese style inn in a very old beautiful house. The owners were amazing and helpful and very kind. If you want to experience a taste of traditional Japanese culture this is a great place to stay. NB this is not a western style hotel.

Elegant, welcoming traditional royokan in a bea old house in the center of Kyoto—favorite hotel!
Amazing old house turned into a really special hotel. Gracious, welcoming staff (with excellent English). Superb Japanese breakfast (the grilled salmon was truly special). We stayed in a double room with a small, elegant private garden. Sitting on the rocks, patting pillows of moss, listening to the quiet sounds of the city night and a close-by frog, was a magical way to end the day. Loved the onsen baths—soaking away the travel fatigue felt wonderful.
It was our favorite hotel in Japan. We loved everything.

Our family of 5 loved our two night, two room stay at this extraordinary, Michelin-starred 114 year old Ryokarn that pro
This Inn, built in 1909, skilfully balances a beautiful, awe-inspiring stay in the past, with modern comforts such as stunning bathrooms & air conditioning. The staff are extraordinary and lovely, with plenty of English and patience for our limited Japanese. The futons were very comfortable (with an extra layer happily provided for one of us, as desired). The Japanese breakfast is exceptional and a great experience. The library room is a place of remarkable tranquility, with delicious & complimentary tea, coffee and treats. It took our family of 5 a moment, to transition from our usually hectic, ordered, modern life to the calm and very different nature of a Ryokarn but we are so glad we did. Spending two nights was ideal.
The online photos don’t do justice to this masterpiece. The rooms contain more texture and warmth than shown.
