三宅八幡站 × 可感受禪意世界觀的住宿設施・設備評價高的飯店·日式旅館

This was my second stay. The moment I stepped through the entrance, it felt like a different world. The meals were delicious, the staff’s hospitality and manners were excellent, and our Room was upgraded—everything was taken care of. I would love to stay again. I’m also looking forward to trying the open-air bath next time. Thank you very much for such a wonderful experience.

It was a Hotel in a quiet, nature-filled setting—perfect for switching off and relaxing at ease. Since I stayed on a weekday, the club lounge wasn’t very crowded, and I was able to enjoy drinks slowly while looking out over the garden. Time passed gently, and I spent the stay feeling truly elegant and at peace. They also provided in-Room services such as welcome sweets and sparkling wine. Although the bathroom was a unit bath, the bathtub was spacious, and they even prepared bath salts, which made me feel that the entire Hotel was a place where you can genuinely unwind. This time I accidentally forgot to visit the tea lounge, and it was also a bit disappointing that the lobby staircase was under construction—but I’ll take that as something to look forward to next time. It’s a Hotel I would definitely love to visit again.

It was truly wonderful. The service exceeded my expectations. Once the renovation of Konpon Chudo is complete, I will visit again.

If you're visiting Kyoto and prefer staying at a Ryokan instead of a Hotel, you might want to consider an even more luxurious experience at this Accommodation. Upon arrival, you'll be awed by the grand gate of Kinkakuji Temple. Walking through the wooden door and along the gravel path in the front garden feels like stepping into another world, far removed from everyday life. In addition to clean, modern Japanese-style rooms with new facilities akin to those of a high-end Ryokan, you can enjoy exclusive access to a beautiful garden surrounded by nature. Although it's called "Shukubo," it is open to everyone and allows for casual participation in comfortable attire. The resident monk and his wife are incredibly friendly as well. This Accommodation offers an affordable yet luxurious experience comparable to that of high-end Ryokans. Memorable activities include making bracelets with natural stones, enjoying Shojin Ryori (traditional Buddhist vegetarian breakfast), and participating in morning prayers—all adding up to an unforgettable stay.

I’m glad I chose the best course where I could enjoy something like a tilefish bouillabaisse. The next day, I had scorpionfish at another restaurant, so it was truly wonderful to experience the delicate flavor of tilefish that I hadn’t known before. I look forward to enjoying the kama bath even more next time!

I stayed for one night from April 15. It was conveniently located right near the bus stop, making it easy to get around. The Room was very clean and comfortable! The owner was very kind and gave me helpful bus information, as well as recommendations for a bakery and a Japanese sweets shop. It made my trip very enjoyable. Thank you very much.
