The building was beautiful and felt like a traditional inn. It’s up on a hill, and secluded from the bustle of the city.

this is the place
The best part of my vacation. Magical quiet and private. Inside of historic park on top of a hill. I love this special place and will come back. The hosts are very helpful. The bath is great. Breakfast is delicious. Very close to walk to temples and shops. I am so happy here, looking into the garden and listening to the birds. Amazing!

Kyoto Inn
It was great to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this inn. Kyoto was much busier than I imagined so staying here was a nice change and felt homely. Would recommend staying here but maybe arrange for a shuttle to get up the hill. It was a bit of a walk with luggage but not an unpleasant one.

Traditional and welcoming. We loved our 3 day stay and the breakfast each morning was so lovely - it’s personal. The view up to the hotel is amazing and it feels so tucked away. Staff are all very nice.

Wish I had stayed longer!
I was so pleasantly surprised by this little inn. Removed from the bustle of the busy areas, it’s only a short walk to all kinds of Kyoto attractions. The hosts were most generous and kind. The breakfast was excellent. I would highly recommend this ryokan and would definitely also return.

Very typical JP accommodation with all what you need for your stay. Hospitality of the staff is outstanding and very helpful for all the question you need to explore in Kyoto. Great to have no TV and all this overdone useless electronic staff what you find in the most of the hotels today. Simple and traditional room with a view to trees absolutely quite. Can highly recommend for people looking to get out of standard accommodation.

Authentic Feel and Superb Hospitality
Amazing! The service is another level! Not only are you greeted with kindness they really go above and beyond to ensure your stay is good! They helped us plan our next trip to Mt. Fuji, scheduled our buses for us and even would help us order food. It was so amazing we had to extend the stay! The location is nice and underrated while allowing easy access to some AMAZING sites and historical locations that are all pretty much a 20-30 minute walking radius. The fact they share their authentic history and rich culture by opening their doors to foreigners is honestly the best part. It really felt like home and that you grew up in the area with how friendly and caring they are. If you are staying in Kyoto to experience the culture of Japan and are looking for assistance beyond just your stay I highly recommend this location!

Absolutely LOVED the traditional Japanese room!
I had a wonderful stay here for 2 nights. The building is located inside a temple in Gion area in Kyoto. If you want to experience staying in a traditional Japanese room, this is it! Very calm and serene environment. The staff are very warm and welcoming. They dedicate energy and care to every single person staying in the place. Loved my stay there!

We had a great experience and absolutely loved it! Place was clean, breakfast was delicious and staff was outstanding. I can’t say enough good things about them. They were attentive and super helpful, they showed us maps with the attractions and how to get there using different transportation (I.e bus, train, etc). We will definitely go back if we’re in the area.

This is a traditional Japanese Ryokan in the Giom district of Kyoto tucked away at the back of Maruyama Park. You feel like you are in the countryside surrounded by nature miles away from a city but only 10 min walk to shops. The staff are amazingly friendly and take great care of their customers. Rooms are traditional Tatami floor and you sleep on a futon. Best authentic traditional Japanese hotel for travelers.
