Highlight of our Japan holiday. Tome-san and her husband are just amazing making the stay perfect. Everything from personal friendliness, hospitality, great very well elaborated Japanese breakfast, fantastic “hidden” bar with an amazing Japanese whisky collection, beautiful tatami rooms, amazing shower and all in a building full of history but still with such attention to details, functionality and design. The nicest, smallest and most personal Ryokan ever! Thank you both for making our stay so memorable!

This Ryokan is nicely tucked away from the busy city of Kyoto but still within either walking distance or bus rides of most attractions. Beyond that Tome the hostess is awesome and makes you feel very welcome. Thank you again for a great stay. Best place I have ever stayed at and I have been to many countries and B&B's
