We - a newly married couple - stayed at Izuyasu for two nights in the room called Yuu, which was quite big. It contained a bedroom with a small sitting area overlooking a parking lot, a toilet, and a dinning area with a view towards a small garden. The dinning area had modern chairs which we appreciated since we aren't used to sitting on the floor. Two bottles of water, coffe and tea was included. The bedroom had two futons on top of more modern mattresses. Although the beds became more raised and slightly more confortable than just the traditional futon beds, it was not comfortable to sleep here for us who are used to western modern beds. The ryokan also has three small bathrooms which you book for an hour. To have a bathroom just for the two of us is very luxurious so we appreciated this. But it seems like not all guests understand that you are supposed to shower properly before getting into the bath since we saw that there was hair and dirt in the baths on both evenings. This is something we were instructed on upon check in but my suspicion is that some guests neglect this completely or just rinse their bodies quickly. The check in was really nice and thorough - they have staff who speak excellent English and they take the time to sit down with you and go through all the information about the hotel while offering you a small sweet and green tea. The ryokan is clean and well maintained.

Amazing ryokan. It was mind blowing to be served a 7 course meal by the seventh generation owner/chef. The dinner was amazing. The property is beautifully decorated. Everything is centered around the guests’ comfort.

Gorgeous historical property with a superb staff. Clean and very comfortable. Shared bathrooms weren’t an issue as there were only a handful of guests. Close to Kyoto Station. Nino was at the desk during our stay and made sure we were comfortable. Great Ryokan experience in Kyoto. Thank you!!

My stay here has been nothing short of pleasant. Every member of their staff I had the pleasure of interacting with has been so welcoming and helpful. They made the stay feel calm and relaxing. The breakfast was delicious! Only wish I got to try the dinner

Wonderful stay. We ordered massages and it was some of the best we had experienced. We hadn't realized that the kitchen was closed on Wednesdays and Sundays, so that was important to know ahead of time as we had missed the opportunity for the traditional dinner

What a beautiful experience in a real, traditional atmosphere! I loved the Owner’s philosophy of carrying on traditions by means of making it relevant for each generation. The attention to detail in the architecture, design, even the sogetsu ikebana flower arrangements, and of course, the seasonally unique kaiseki meal, was wonderful.
The Yukatas and most comfortable pajamas added to the feel of authenticity and calm.

Our three-night stay at Izuyasu was one of the highlights of our three weeks in Japan.
As soon as we stepped through the ryokan's doors, we were greeted by Izuyasu's warm and attentive staff. who welcomed us with genuine kindness and a deep commitment to ensuring our stay was nothing short of exceptional. A special bow to manager Nino who epitomized this remarkable hospitality.
A short walk from Kyoto Station, the inn is on a quiet street. It's steps away from a Family Market convenience store and a post office for mailing post cards.
The guest rooms are well appointed, featuring tatami mats, shoji screens and futon bedding, We had a small powder room with Toto toilet and sink. Bathing was well-orchestrated by staff; it was never difficult finding time to get in a long soak!
Breakfast in our room was a treat and really added to the experience.

Relaxing atmosphere, your own private onshen and we Would definitely recommend having the traditional breakfast and seven course meal for dinner, you wouldn’t want to miss it. Great location to get to places. This place comes very highly recommended. We would have loved to stay longer but we had plans back in Tokyo. Next time we will stay longer!

Wonderful proprietors and staff. We separately booked a dinner with them (highly recommend) and the owner is the head chef. He's very passionate about cooking and it showed in this wonderful 7-course meal, as well as in the delicious kaiseki breakfast that is included with the room rate. Bathing arrangement is much easier than it originally sounded from their email, and all in all a very memorable stay with kind and welcoming hosts.

This place was absolutely incredible. Every detail of my stay was extremely thought through by the hotel staff. I had no idea how personal the experience would be or that the property would have such a rich history. The owner is the chef, and he cooked the dinners in front of us, explained several Japanese culinary traditions, showed us the artwork collection on the property, and gave us the history of his hotel and his family. The food was top-notch, traditional, and different each night and morning (great for seafood lovers!). I don't speak any Japanese unfortunately, but there are enough English speaking staff members on-site to provide translations for everything.
My recommendation for staying here is that guests plan their stays in Kyoto around spending a significant amount of time at Izuyasu in the evenings to fully appreciate the experience. For those looking to stay here but also experience night life in Kyoto, I recommend splitting the trip between Izuyasu and another simpler hotel (unless cost is no object). Note that Izuyasu has an 11 PM - 7AM curfew.
My only suggestion for improvement is that the hotel add an explanation on their guest book about how massage payments work. I was unaware that I was supposed to pay the massage therapist directly, rather than through the hotel, and I was lucky that I had enough cash on-hand.

I had a phenomenal experience of a traditional ryokan in Kyoto, minutes walk from Kyoto main station. The property and staff are impeccable, I’ve not slept so well in weeks nor woken feeling so refreshed. The one of three on-site onsen I relaxed in were perfect following much exploring of sights in Kyoto and set me up for another full day of sightseeing. When I come back to Kyoto I will stay here again without doubt or hesitation.

I recently stayed at the Izuyasu ryokan for 2 nights with 3 friends in the Ki superior room. We had an excellent time during our stay in this traditional inn. We were provided with yukata to wear while we were there. We enjoyed the Japanese breakfasts served at the inn, but did not do the kaiseki dinner so that we would have additional time to explore the city as there is an 11:00 PM curfew as a courtesy to the other guests. The staff were very accomodating to any requests that we had and I would definitely recommend it to someone looking for this experience while in Kyoto.
