Lovely guesthouse for a traditional experience
8.0The property was very clean and the staff who managed breakfast were very friendly and explained what we were eating. A traditional Japanese breakfast served in a beautiful dining room.
− Although the kids were fine, my husband and I struggled with the futons and pillows which were very hard. But - we had wanted a traditional ryokan experience so still glad we did it. Just be aware that there are no Western options for breakfast - it's a traditional guest house. It's a little too far from Gion to walk but is in a non-touristy location.
Guest review
10.0很酷的日式传统民居！就是我们想象中想住的那种榻榻米房间！整个旅馆里面都很干净！设施齐全，布置很用心，每个小pantry都有独特的设计，很漂亮很精致！光是在旅店里就值得一个探索！我们住的楼上的三人间完全没有隔音的问题，睡的很好！旅店还有自带的公共日式泡汤，晚上回来泡一泡非常爽！此行最满意的一个住宿，强推！
− 位置稍微有点偏，在京都大学医院的边上，附近都是医疗相关，不是旅游区
Un excellent séjour.
10.0Un très bon accueil dans un établissement de qualité. Nous avions une chambre qui donnait sur le petit Jardin végétalisé avec un joli petit bassin où nageaient des carpes. Une très belle chambre, typiquement japonaise avec du thé et des accessoires très pratiques pour aller se baigner dans le onsen public de cette guest House. Une belle expérience !
− Rien ! Tout était parfait
