Absolutely incredible!! We stayed here for Valentine’s Day and it was perfect. The service was incredible, and we loved the open-air bath! The food is very traditional and so if you’re from the West and not very adventurous, it might be a little difficult to finish everything. (I wasn’t able to finish all of it and they were very polite about it.) Would absolutely stay here again!

An unforgettable traditional Ryokan experience. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The ryokan was quaint and clean. A shuttle bus picked me up at Hanazono station and brought me to the ryokan and then brought me back the next morning. Dinner is served in the room and breakfast is served the next morning. The public bath was excellent and I had the whole thing to myself. I can’t recommend this property enough.

If you want to know what it feels like to be transported to a place that feels like a Miyazaki film I absolutely implore you to book your stay in June. You will see the lighting bugs dance at the riverbank while eating the most delicious Wagyu meal ever. June is the rainy season but the rain only immerses you more into this stunning environment with some truly beautiful shrines in walking distance. The staff is so kind and accommodating, with fantastic service. We can not wait to come back, we only wish we had booked more than one night, two is ideal.

The hotel is quite wearing and old, but the service and the food are good.

The place is utterly beautiful and you get the real japanese kind of service, with people taking care of every little detail to make your stay perfect.

We had an excellent stay in the Annex next to the river. It was so beautiful, peaceful, and everything we could want to experience a traditional Japanese ryokan. Highly recommended!

The instruction of the shuttle was not clear so lead to delay in return. We thought we had private bathtube, but it was public so had to get extra charge for private bathtube. The staff's English was not good so was little confusing.

Magical ryokan experience with a kaiseki dinner by the river and a maiko performance. The room was basic, but had all the comforts we needed. I did not book a room with a private onsen, but the public onsen was lovely - spotless, very hot, and no one was there so it was private! The setting up in the mountains by the river was absolutely enchanting. The service was also outstanding - everyone was warm and friendly. An unforgettable and highly recommended experience.

This place is so magical! We loved our staying! From our room, staff and beautiful views. Our private made was the best! If you have the opportunity to visit Kyoto don’t hesitate to choose this Ryokan. We totally recommend to everyone and will comeback for sure! Thank you for making our staying a long time memory.

A fantastic location in a secluded part of the Kyoto mountain area. Close to some spectacular temples with stunning views. Hospitality was A++ and very traditional. Great experience meeting and talking with geisha also. Highly recommend.
