With the spirit of “Raisha Nyoki” (welcoming you as if returning home) and a deep respect for tradition, we have long hosted Bakumatsu-era patriots, members of the Imperial family, writers and artists, as well as guests from overseas. Our cuisine features kaiseki that reflects Kyoto’s annual events and the changing seasons. We would be delighted if you would spend a peaceful time at our historic Ryokan, embracing a culture that cherishes fine craftsmanship and harmony with nature.

A renowned Ryokan, Sumiya Ryokan, featuring a sukiya-style architecture, offers an exceptional sense of tranquility that feels far removed from the bustling streets of Kyoto. The kaiseki dinner is exquisite, and on the evenings of the 7th and 17th each month, tea ceremonies are held in the tea room for your enjoyment.

Enjoy soothing, scenic views in a tranquil setting—yet step outside and you are seamlessly connected to Kyoto’s iconic neighborhoods such as Gion, Kawaramachi, and Pontocho in this one-of-a-kind location. Experience a space where the refined aesthetics passed down through the ages since the Heian period blend with The Ritz-Carlton’s renowned hospitality, and savor a sense of relaxation found only here.

We offer guest rooms with views of the Kamo River, one of Kyoto’s most scenic spots, and lush courtyard greenery. An ideal location within walking distance of Kyoto’s famous sights such as Gion and Pontocho. The lobby features a courtyard where you can feel the changing seasons, allowing you to fully enjoy your Kyoto stay while remaining in the Hotel. With Japanese touches throughout that harmonize with the ancient capital, the Hotel is equipped with a large public bath and offers an extraordinary, luxurious space for relaxation.

Yoshikawa was established as a culinary Ryokan after World War II, located near the Kyoto Imperial Palace in the heart of Rakuchu.

The Sukiya-style building, once a residence of a wealthy merchant, offers an atmosphere of tranquility and charm that feels far removed from the bustling city. We hope you will enjoy your stay at our culinary Ryokan, where you can relax and feel at home.
