Around Kyoto International Manga Museum × Zen-Inspired AccommodationHighly rated for rooms and amenities at Hotel·Ryokan

Thanks to the Diamond member benefit, we received a Room upgrade. The moment we stepped inside, the space was so generous that I couldn’t help but say, “Wow.” The interior was consistently styled with a Kyoto-inspired Japanese aesthetic, creating a wonderfully calm atmosphere. The indirect lighting was thoughtfully designed, and the Room felt especially lovely at night. The tableware included beautiful, like-new pieces from Noritake and HARIO. My personal favorite was the bath salts—soaking in the tub while surrounded by natural aromas was truly relaxing. Breakfast was delicious, and having it delivered to our Room made everything feel effortless. Rather than a Hotel stay, it felt like relaxing in a private residence. This time we stayed for one night, but it’s an Accommodation where I’d love to enjoy a Multiple Night Stay at a slower pace. All staff were polite and kind, which made us feel at ease. I would definitely like to stay again. Thank you very much for your hospitality!

I think this Accommodation is perfect for a stay during the Gion Festival. I also enjoyed both the Italian and Japanese cuisine. Watching a maiko dance during my stay became a wonderful memory—thank you very much. It seems that, in exchange for opening the lounge, the drinks in the refrigerator have been limited to mineral water only. However, because the lounge has short opening hours, it was not very convenient. I usually stay at Hiramatsu-level Accommodations, but this was the first time I had to buy sparkling mineral water at a convenience store during my stay. That said, it is still a great Accommodation, and I would be happy to stay again.

Thank you again for your hospitality. Just three stops from Kyoto Station and also close to Karasuma Oike, it’s convenient yet quiet and comfortable. There are complimentary drinks, and alcohol is available at certain times. I’d be even happier if there were some Kyoto-style tea as well! I’ll be back again!

I booked with No Meals Included and didn’t expect too much for the price, but it exceeded my expectations in the best way. First, the front desk staff were incredibly courteous and impressive. The Room was spacious, spotless, and came with a bathtub. While the public bath isn’t large enough to be called a big bathhouse, it was perfect for soaking slowly in warm water. I honestly found myself thinking, “Is it really okay to stay here on a weekend for this price?”—almost feeling guilty. This time I didn’t add breakfast due to my plans the next day, but it looked very delicious. When we stopped by in the evening to pick up our stored luggage, you kindly lent us towels because we were soaked from a sudden heavy downpour. From start to finish, it was truly a Hotel full of outstanding hospitality. Thank you very much.

The Room was spacious and provided a relaxing space where I could forget my busy work schedule right up until the day before. Thank you very much.

I stayed at the end of February. There was a courtyard inside the room, allowing me to experience the atmosphere of Kyoto while staying indoors, which was a special experience. This time it was a short stay, but next time I would like to take my time and enjoy it more.

I stayed not for sightseeing, but simply to unwind in the Room. The spacious, white-toned Room felt calm and relaxing; even with the lights dimmed for a greyish ambiance, it was still bright enough. I brought my Kindle and enjoyed reading with tea at a leisurely pace. It never felt cramped, there was nothing overly flashy or unnecessary, and nothing was lacking. Even down to each amenity, the concept feels thoroughly consistent. The large bath was also wonderful—overall, it was perfect for staying in the Room and truly relaxing. There was an issue with the hair dryer, but when I requested a replacement late at night, they responded immediately, which I really appreciated. The Jurlique basic skincare set is a nice touch for women. The loungewear is comfortable as well, and I felt you could pack extremely light without any trouble. Breakfast (Western-style) remains excellent as always, and I’m grateful it can be served in the Room. There are many Accommodations out there, but I’ll return when I want to get away from everyday noise and take things slow. Overall, I was extremely satisfied. Next time, I’m planning a Multiple Night Stay of doing absolutely nothing but relaxing indoors.
