Terada Station (Kyoto) × Highly rated for dining at Hotel·Ryokan

We arrived by car, parked at the Hotel, and walked five minutes to AEON to watch an evening movie and have dinner. The breakfast area was spacious and clean, with counter seats by the window (the view is only of the parking lot). The scrambled eggs were delicious. It was also great that we could watch YouTube as a guest. We will stay again.

Even though I arrived much later than the check-in time, the staff kindly accommodated me. I also enjoyed the wide variety of baths! Just one thing: many guests were barefoot inside the building, which I understand since it’s an Onsen, but if possible, it would be nice to have Japanese-style indoor footwear available (the disposable slippers in the Room were a bit small and hard to walk in), so those who want to wear them would have that option. Sorry for such a luxury request. I’m grateful to the kind front desk staff and to everyone on the team.

On our way back from a trip to Nara, we stopped by Uji, where we have relatives. It was our first time staying overnight in Uji, and we looked forward to this Accommodation near the Uji River. The staff were very kind, even allowing us to park our relatives’ car—thank you very much. The bath was wonderful, and we could also see the Uji River, so we were able to relax at a leisurely pace. We heard that the property is scheduled for rebuilding and are looking forward to it. Thanks to this stay, we were able to fully enjoy Uji.

I made a same-day Reservation, and the bright, clean Room was perfect for studying alone. Thank you very much.

I was able to stay at a great price by making a last-minute Reservation the day before. It’s conveniently located near the station and faces the shopping street. The room was clean, and I had a comfortable stay. Since I stayed on Sunday, many restaurants were closed, which was a bit disappointing. Byodoin Temple is within walking distance. If I have the chance, I would like to stay at this Hotel again.

My friend loves architecture, so we stayed here. The Room and garden were beautiful, and it was a wonderful space to relax while enjoying the view. At check-in, they kindly explained the building in detail, which made it a great experience. Rather than a Ryokan, it truly feels like staying in an “old house” just as it is. For two people, the large hall felt a bit too spacious and slightly unsettling, so I think this house would be even more enjoyable with a larger group. Thank you for this valuable experience!

The Room was clean and conveniently located near the station, making it easy to get around.

We stayed as a family of three. Since it was just us, we could relax without worrying about others, and the bath was so spacious that even stretching out my legs left plenty of room—it really helped us unwind. Even with our luggage spread out, it didn’t feel cramped at all. Having a washer-dryer was also very helpful.

The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and I couldn't resist having seconds. I was unsure about adding breakfast to my stay, but starting the day with a warm and tasty meal gave me so much energy. Both the host and hostess warmly greeted us whenever we left or returned, creating a cozy atmosphere that felt like staying at a relative's home in the countryside. The bath had a homely feel to it, but it was just right for relieving travel fatigue. They kindly shared information about local attractions (like Teradaya), making the stay even more relaxing and enjoyable in such an inviting environment. Thank you for your heartfelt hospitality!

I stayed here while visiting the real-life locations from the anime “Sound! Euphonium.” ・Access Just a few minutes on foot from either JR Uji Station or Keihan Uji Station. Right after passing through the large torii gate from Uji Bridge. It’s also close to Byodo-in Temple (Phoenix Hall)—an excellent location. ・Plan Only No Meals Included, but there are several convenience stores within walking distance near the stations. Even closer (about a 2-minute walk) is a supermarket (Shokuhinkan Apro). On the 1st floor below the Accommodation (on the 3rd and 4th floors), there is a diner popular with Kyoto Animation fans. (*The 2nd floor is a mahjong parlor.) ・Room A room that used to be a 4-person dormitory (shared room) before COVID is now used as a private Room. ・Facility The Room has basic amenities such as a toothbrush and large towel, plus a window air conditioner, mini fridge, fan, air circulator, hair dryer, water dispenser (it takes some technique and finger strength to dispense hot water), instant coffee, lockers, sofa, vanity mirror/dressing table, and plenty of outlets. Wi‑Fi available. A microwave is available in the shared space. No kitchen. Shared toilet/shower (bathtub not available). Shampoo/conditioner/body soap provided. Coin-operated washing machine available. No elevator. ・Curfew You will be given a key, so you can come and go freely at night. The owner does not stay on-site overnight. ・Notes This Accommodation is not a Hotel; it’s an affordable guesthouse for backpackers (also comparable to a small inn or private lodging). If you are very sensitive about cleanliness, uncomfortable with shared toilets/showers, unable to communicate at least minimally with other guests or the owner, or cannot carry your suitcase without an elevator, I recommend choosing a business hotel near the station instead. The owner is an ex-backpacker and very friendly; if he isn’t busy with activities like his study group/classroom projects, he’ll chat with you and offer travel advice. Depending on timing and conditions, he may even be able to show you Euphonium locations in his tuk-tuk (a three-wheeled motor taxi commonly used in Southeast Asia). If you want more of an authentic local experience rather than just another business hotel stay near the station, I recommend this Accommodation.

We stayed as a family of five, including three children! The Room has a toilet, shower room, and electric kettle. We stayed in a second-floor Room, and right after going down the stairs there was a shared kitchen with a microwave, toaster, rice cooker, and more. There was also a dispenser where we could easily get water, tea, and coffee. There is a supermarket about a 10-minute walk away. Wi-Fi is available too! If I had to ask for one thing, it would have been nice to have a TV.

The phone service was excellent, so I looked forward to my stay. The front desk service was also good, and the room was very clean and comfortable. I went to the Genji no Yu bath.

The Room is beautifully decorated with art pieces throughout, showcasing great attention to detail. The bathroom was larger than it appeared in the photos, making it very relaxing. Additionally, the garden space was truly delightful.

Both the Hotel and the Room were clean and well maintained. Although my stay was No Meals Included, it was very comfortable.
