Although I was a little taken aback at first by the ultra-stylish space designed by Kengo Kuma, that sense of stepping into another world only made it more exciting—and it turned into a truly enjoyable stay. Both dinner and breakfast were served in our Room. Even though this is an Onsen town, the sashimi was surprisingly fresh and delicious, and paired perfectly with local sake—leaving us pleasantly tipsy. There are four private baths on the first floor, and by timing it right we managed to try them all—both at night and in the morning! On top of that, there was an open-air bath on the third floor where we stayed, so we ended up completing all “five baths” (laughs). What impressed me most was the tofu served at breakfast. It’s freshly handmade tofu from Nogawa Tofu Shop nearby, which they start making from 3:00 a.m.—soft, fluffy, and genuinely delicious. The staff were wonderfully warm and welcoming as well, and I could truly relax. By chance it was Saturday night, so we also got to watch a Hanagasa Dance performance (about 15 minutes) right in front of the Accommodation. The interaction with locals felt heartfelt and authentic. Ginza Onsen itself isn’t overcrowded with tourist spots, so nights are quiet and time passes peacefully. With its magical atmosphere reminiscent of *Spirited Away*, this is the perfect Accommodation for anyone who wants to savor a calm yet luxurious getaway.

We stayed for one night and two days. The Accommodation is along the Kamogawa River and close to Shijo, making it a great location. Check-in was handled by staff and went smoothly. We had a Reservation for a 4th-floor Room with a Kamogawa view; the Room was spacious and very clean. Best of all, the full-height windows let you enjoy an unobstructed view of the river all to yourself. You can even soak in the bath while looking out over the Kamogawa. Coffee and water were provided, and the amenities were well stocked. The showerhead and hair dryer are ReFa, which many women will appreciate. There’s also a drum-type washing machine and a small kitchen, which would be especially convenient for inbound guests staying long term. Inside the building, you can freely access the 2nd-floor lounge and the rooftop. The rooftop has chairs and tables, so you can enjoy the Kamogawa at night while feeling the evening breeze. We ordered shojin-ryori (Buddhist vegetarian cuisine) for breakfast, and it was delicious. It was delivered to our Room by someone who seemed to be from a nearby traditional restaurant or catering shop. The location, Facility, and food were all excellent. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Kyoto in peace and quiet.

I surprised my wife, who loves the countryside, with a stay here. She was very happy and said she’d like to come back next time with her parents.

This was my second visit, and the meals were still delicious. The Onsen was clean, and I could relax and enjoy it at my own pace.

I was able to spend a relaxing time at this incredibly tranquil property. The hospitality of all the staff was excellent, and I was convinced of its long-standing reputation. Both the onsen and meals were wonderful!

Thank you very much for a wonderful stay. The kaiseki dinner, in particular, truly moved me—it was the most delicious I have had in years. Each dish was carefully prepared, and both the flavors and presentation were outstanding. I would highly recommend it to everyone. My sincere thanks to the head chef for preparing such an exceptional meal. The Onsen was also lovely, with a great atmosphere, and I was able to relax and unwind. However, I was a little disappointed that the women’s bathing hours were only from 17:00 to 20:00. I would have been even happier if it had been available for longer. The Room was clean and comfortable, and overall it felt like a calm, private space that I really enjoyed. I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Stayed with my 93-year-old mother. The room and restaurant were on the second floor, and while the lack of an elevator might be a drawback for elderly guests, the staff kindly provided a wheelchair and assisted us by carrying it up the stairs. The bath was clean, with flowing hot spring water, which was excellent. The room had been renovated and was very clean; however, there were many steps inside the room that could be challenging for elderly guests (though not an issue for younger visitors). From our room, we had a view of the well-maintained garden, which I imagine would be stunning during autumn foliage season. Located within a golf course facility, there is also an impressive rock sculpture—possibly man-made or utilizing natural elements—that is worth seeing. The golf course itself is well-maintained and makes this accommodation ideal for those planning an overnight golfing trip.

The price is affordable, so I understand, but I was a bit disappointed that there was no bidet. I stayed in the city because I wanted to drink a large beer at my favorite shop and didn't feel like going home. Sarusawa Pond is very close, making it perfect for a pleasant walk. The hotel staff were friendly, and I would love to stay here again.

The Room was too dark and difficult to use, and it was disappointing that there was no information on how to use the parking lot. I think the front desk staff handled things well.

The Room was compact, but the items inside, the washroom, and the shower were simple and sophisticated, making for a pleasant stay. The simplicity highlighted the importance of cleanliness. I hope it continues to maintain its current level of cleanliness and sophistication. I would love to stay here again.

This accommodation is a renovated traditional Kyoto townhouse. The semi-open-air Shigaraki ceramic bath was smooth to the touch and very pleasant. The room's furnishings and facilities were top-notch, ensuring a comfortable stay. The staff member was very kind, making us feel at ease.

After arrival, we were shown to our Room without much guidance. It was a clean and spacious Room. Since this is temple lodging, the Rooms are only separated by sliding doors, so you can hear voices and other sounds clearly. Dinner was carefully prepared and very enjoyable. The rice was exceptionally delicious—better than anything I’ve had in quite a while. I usually hold back, but I finished everything (lol). The next morning I had plans and made a Reservation without breakfast, but I was asked about breakfast; when I said it wasn’t included in my Reservation, it was still recommended to me, which left me a little unsure (the rice really was that good… lol). The service was very polite throughout. Thank you for taking care of us.

I returned to Kawazuya again for the delicious food and the Onsen. Soaking in the dimly lit cave bath, I find myself becoming completely empty-minded... it’s a precious time when I can clear my head for a while. After the bath, enjoying the many delicious dinner dishes with Iwanashi sake was the best. The myoga (Japanese ginger) in fried tofu was especially outstanding. Breakfast was also very tasty, enjoyed while looking at the Akiyama-go scenery from the window, and the lightly sweet tamagoyaki made me want more rice. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality from the owner and his wife.

It was my first time dining on a riverside platform, and I was truly impressed. Even at night, it was much more comfortable than the heat in the city—perhaps thanks to the surrounding greenery and the river. Since it’s by the river, I worried about insect bites, but there were none, which was a relief. I’d love to visit again during the autumn foliage season. The only disappointment was the large public bath. The women’s bath could fit four people, but the men’s bath could only fit two, so my husband said he had to soak quickly and get out in a hurry. If it were a bit larger, everything would have been perfect!

After 20 years, the bath was still great, and although meals were previously served in the Room, the food was excellent. The staff were all very pleasant. The garden remains as beautiful as it was 20 years ago. While I like the nostalgic feel of the building, a bit more renovation might be better.

The Room with a full lake view was excellent. Unfortunately, the explanations were lacking, which was a shame, but dinner was delicious. If there had been explanations about the food and drinks, it would have been even more enjoyable—every dish was carefully prepared. The large public bath was also very good. The open-air bath as well.

We stayed on a pet-friendly Plan for our dog’s first trip. The building with the pet Plan Rooms felt a bit old, but it was kept very clean and didn’t feel unpleasant at all. We really appreciated having pet amenities in the Room, such as a crate and a trash bin. Both dinner and breakfast were served as set meals, and everything was delicious. Our child, who usually doesn’t eat much, said it was tasty and ate heartily! The portions were more than enough—my big-eating husband was completely full and very satisfied. All of the staff were friendly, so we had a very comfortable stay. Just one thing: at check-in, we didn’t receive an information sheet with details such as facility guidance, business hours, or meal times/locations. I wish there had been one (we couldn’t find the bath hours in the in-room information file either, so we had to go all the way to the bath area to check). Still, it was a wonderful Accommodation that made us want to return—next time with our eldest child as well—and stay as a family of four plus our dog if we have another opportunity.

All services were excellent.

Spacious room, thorough cleaning, delicious meals, and the staff maintained a good sense of distance, which I appreciated. I thought it would be nice if the room had a brighter (even with bright lighting) area. However, it was very difficult to get into the bathtub. I am 160 cm tall, which I think is average, but even so, I was afraid my feet might get caught. I only got used to it during my Multiple Night Stay. It might be impossible, but could you somehow make it easier to get in? That was the only disappointment.

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!
