    “Loved This Hotel”

    I only stayed one night, but I absolutely loved this hotel. It is in the most perfect location if you want to experience Arashiyama in its natural peace and quiet before the crowds arrive for the day. It’s a quick walk to the Bamboo Forest, so if you get there at sunrise, you’ll have the place to yourself. You can also enjoy an early morning walk along the river and enjoy the amazing beauty of the area. The hotel staff was lovely, and the facilities were impressive. The room is on the larger side, and although it may be a bit dated, it was clean and comfy. I would love to stay there again!

    “The hospitality and location were both excellent!”

    I stayed on the day of the Gozan Okuribi and the lantern floating event. The twin room was spacious and well-cleaned, and the smiles of the staff at the front desk and restaurant were very lovely and kind, making it the best trip. The location was also excellent! The large public bath was spacious, and the ReFa showerhead felt great. The breakfast had a lot of Japanese-style obanzai dishes, all of which were delicious. I definitely want to stay at this inn again.

    “Great Japanese Ryokan Ryori”

    The facility though a bit dated, feels clean and spacious. Japanese dinner with wagyu suki yaki reflects the best of Kyoto speciality. Service is impeacable as well. Location is a bit far from the nearest train station but still walkable.

    “Very Traditional Hotel ”

    Pros: • The hotel has a public pool but when I first enter it has a strong urine smell from the toilet. • A water dispenser is conveniently located near the public pool in the basement. Cons: • The air conditioning system was non-functional during my stay in autumn (temperature day 21 and night 15°C). The staff told me it’s a central air conditioned and the solution was to open our room’s window always and provide a standing fan. • Initially, I was placed on level 1, where I felt unsafe leaving the window open. After raising my concerns, the manager moved us to level 2, but I still had to keep the window open with just a fan throughout the two nights. • I’m unsure how comfortable the rooms would be during the summer months, given the air conditioning issues since it’s central air con in this very old and traditional hotel but hotel is clean.

    “Leave room for peace of mind.”

    Arashiyama was a travel destination I was visiting for the first time. When I traveled to Kyoto 20 years ago, the focus was mainly on prominent shrines like "Kiyomizu Temple" and "Kinkaku-ji", but this time I wanted to take it easy for at least a day, so I stayed in Arashiyama. Perhaps because it was the off-season, the accommodation costs weren't that high, and it was pleasant to stay quietly alone. However, since it is a tourist spot, there were quite a few people. It was nice for a peaceful neighborhood stroll, but many shops closed by 6 PM, making it difficult to find a place to eat. I had to rely on restaurants and convenience stores a bit farther away in "Saga-Arashiyama". If you choose to stay in Arashiyama, you either need to take advantage of breakfast and dinner at your accommodation or have your meals early. It might be good to keep this in mind if you plan to stay in Arashiyama.
