บริเวณรอบๆ ศาลเจ้ายาซากะ, กิอง × ที่พักรีสอร์ตกลิ่นอายญี่ปุ่นโรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

As many guests have said, this is an outstanding Hotel. From the moment you step inside, you immediately understand why it is the Imperial Hotel—thanks to the serene atmosphere and the refined hospitality of the staff. Our Room was a tatami-style Room in the North Wing, at eye level with Gion’s traditional Kyoto townhouses, and enjoying Kawakami’s breakfast there was such an elegant experience that we almost forgot we were in a Hotel. I have never written a Review before, but this Hotel was so wonderful that I simply had to.

This Accommodation is highly recommended. The Room was clean and comfortable, and with the fresh greenery of the season, the semi-open-air Onsen was absolutely wonderful. The front desk staff were also very helpful, and we had a pleasant stay. The location and surroundings are excellent. It’s an Accommodation I’d love to visit again. Next time, I plan to choose the largest Room with an open-air bath.

I originally made a Reservation at “Nene no Michi Bettei,” but due to a change in Room allocation, I ended up staying at Hotel VMG Kyoto Kamogawa. From check-in to check-out, I was deeply impressed by the staff’s impeccable attention to detail and thoughtful hospitality. Sleeping in the bedroom while gazing up at the coffered ceiling felt like an “exceptional escape from everyday life.” At the paid lounge, alcohol and other drinks are available free-flow, with snacks as well—it truly feels like a private lounge. Because the property preserves the character of a historic building, soundproofing is not perfect; however, it more than makes up for it with an elegant, nostalgic atmosphere. The Japanese-style room next to the bedroom overlooks a small courtyard garden and offers a wonderfully atmospheric view that made time feel as if it passed more slowly. That said, perhaps because the air conditioning does not reach this room easily, I found the heat noticeable. Although it would involve additional cost, lending spot coolers or simple heaters to guests upon request during limited seasons (summer/winter) could help make better use of this room and may also become a new experiential highlight—especially for international travelers. I’m truly grateful to all of the staff for giving me such an extraordinary stay. This is a Hotel I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking an “indescribably exceptional escape from everyday life.”

I stayed for one night last autumn and it was amazing, so this time I stayed for two nights. For both breakfast and dinner on the first and second days, they prepared different menus each day. Everything was absolutely delicious! The Ai Room was spacious, and the fresh flowers were adorable and beautiful. After dinner, floating yuzu in the cypress bath and soaking slowly was a blissful moment that made me forget everyday life. The yuzu served with the meals and in the bath were large and impressive. It’s in a prime location in Kyoto, right next to Yasaka Shrine, with an excellent atmosphere. Transportation is convenient, making it an easy base for sightseeing. It makes you want to stay again and again! I’ll be back!

We had a wonderful, elegant time. The space itself reminded us of Japan all over again.

My daughter and I stayed for two nights during Golden Week. It was a wonderful time. Thank you. We will definitely stay again. I hope this Hotel will always be here.

1. The first impression: All the staff provide excellent service, both international and Japanese staff equally. 2. The second: The cuisine—crafted with incredible dedication by the head chef. 3. The third: The Room—so impressive that words can't do it justice. I was deeply moved by these experiences. Looking forward to visiting again next month! It would be great if you could arrange a partnered parking lot as well.

We stayed at the Accommodation on the last day of our trip to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Arriving with excitement after being picked up in a luxury car, we were warmly welcomed by the smiling staff. When we entered our Room, we were delighted by the beautiful interior, a teepee and treats for our dog, and thoughtful hospitality such as chilled champagne and wonderful sweets—our dog was just as excited as we were. They also kindly accommodated our request to take a pre-dinner stroll together with our dog, which became a truly memorable experience. Dinner at the restaurant was outstanding, of course, but we were especially touched by an unexpected surprise after the meal. It became a very happy anniversary. Thank you for your heartfelt hospitality. It was a wonderful Hotel where each member of the staff worked with energy and pride.

We stayed here on a family trip to Kyoto. Despite its prime location along Nene-no-Michi, which connects Kodaiji Temple and Yasaka Shrine, once you step inside you’ll find a quiet, refined space away from the city bustle—it truly impressed us. The building is said to be 120 years old, yet the interior and Facility are beautifully maintained and very clean, making it extremely comfortable. Thanks to the spacious layout (multiple bedrooms and two bathrooms), we were able to relax at our own pace while still enjoying quality time together as a family. In particular, the view from the second-floor living room with its mini bar was wonderful. Our favorite memory is spending a slow evening there with tea or drinks in hand, chatting as a family. We’re also grateful for the staff’s thoughtful and warm hospitality. It was a special stay that both adults and children thoroughly enjoyed. This is an Accommodation we would absolutely love to return to on our next visit to Kyoto.

I can’t say enough good things about Ishibekoji Ryugin. Check-in was seamless with the keypad, communication was excellent, and the property was outstanding. We stayed in the first-floor one-bedroom unit and couldn’t have been happier. There was plenty of space, with a separate dining area, living room, and tea area overlooking the garden and Ishibekoji Road. The kitchen was well equipped, and having a fridge and stovetop was a great touch. The bathroom was spacious, with a good-sized shower and a large jetted tub. Overall, the property was in excellent condition and very well presented. And most importantly: the location makes this ryokan a true bucket-list stay. It’s on a calm, private street tucked away from Kyoto’s bustle, yet just a short walk to shopping and several shrines—and only about a minute from taxi pickup. We loved exploring nearby places to eat and drink. I’ve already recommended it to multiple friends and would definitely stay again. Thank you so much!

This Hotel opened last month, and everything is spotless. I was impressed to be able to use the latest appliances (TV, humidifier, hair dryer, etc.). All the staff were kind and welcoming. The lounge was kept clean no matter what time I went, and the financiers, prosciutto, and juices were delicious. There was also a great selection of alcoholic drinks. I’m not much of a drinker, but the yuzu and plum juices with sparkling water were perfect. In the morning, there were tasty bread and yogurt available as well—just right for a light breakfast. As you’d expect from a small luxury Hotel, the lounge offerings were high quality too. I had a wonderful time here. I’ve found a new favorite Hotel in Kyoto.

Comfortable stay. If I had to point out, the toilet seat was slightly small due to the standard unit bath, which is understandable. It is a Hotel I would consider using again if given the opportunity.

I made a Reservation to coincide with a visit to Minamiza Theatre. With Chion-in Temple right in front, the location is incredible. It was my first time staying at this Accommodation, and I was delighted by the warm welcome from the moment they held my luggage before check-in. The Room was more than sufficient for a solo trip, and there was also a thoughtful selection of tea and sweets. From the panoramic bath in the morning, I could truly see the red torii gate of Heian Shrine, and breakfast featured delicious Kyoto-style dishes. At check-out, they even saw me off to the exit; feeling happy that I had stayed at such a wonderful Accommodation in Gion, I then headed to Ginkaku-ji Temple. Thank you for your hospitality.

This was my first time staying here! The check-in process was smooth! The location is great, near a bus stop and with good access from Kyoto Station. Communication with the host was quick and very helpful. The Room was tidy, but I noticed a little dust on the floor. The bathroom only had a shower, and I found it slightly inconvenient that shampoo and other items were placed directly on the floor. There wasn’t any storage space in the shower room, which made it a bit less convenient. When leaving the Room, an alarm went off even after closing the door; however, firmly closing it ensured proper locking. Having two toilets and sinks made my stay comfortable. Thank you very much!

This was my first time staying here. We stayed in a charming Room located in a renovated storehouse at this innovative Ryokan with a traditional dining experience. The location is close to popular tourist spots like Kodaiji Temple and Nanzenji Temple, making it ideal for those who enjoy walking. The front desk staff, originally from Nepal, provided impeccable Japanese-style hospitality, which was impressive and pleasant. For breakfast, since we enjoyed Kyoto cuisine the night before, we opted for morning meals at a nearby café instead of the Japanese bento offered by the Ryokan. It was just right—I had toast, but they also offered options like curry rice. I would love to stay here again. Thank you very much!
