The Origin of Kyoto "Ryokan Motonago"・・・ The name "Motonago" is derived from a word in the Manyoshu, meaning "ancient capital." It is said to have been the name of a social gathering place where noble people once assembled and relaxed. There are various theories, such as the old word "motona," meaning "randomly" or "without purpose," or the idea that the dreams and romantic history of ancient people soothe the hearts of visitors. The name "Ryokan Motonago," displayed as the title of this Kyoto Ryokan, carries such profound meanings. We warmly invite you to visit Ryokan Motonago.
