"Kenji was a very nice host and his "guest house English" speaking was wonderful!! It is a perfect location if you are looking to wake up early and walk to the bamboo forest, you can be one of the first people there. Kenji also gave us recommendations of places to visit in the area that you otherwise may not have known about. "
"This place was a nice retreat for me after spending the majority of the past two weeks in Tokyo and Osaka. It is right next to the train station and a short walk to the sights in Arashiyama. The onsen facilities were very nice."
"A great ryokan with very friendly staff. The Japanese breakfast was the best we had in Japan! Our room was nice, clean, and had an amazing view. Great location! "
"The location is great- steps from the train station. Not a lot nearby in terms of food and most things close early when the tourists leave for the day. Which means it’s pretty quiet at night. Rooms are good size, not cramped like most of Japan. Windows barely open and the AC was not working well when we were there. "
"Nice and comfortable, but not convenience for taking train, taking bus is fine.
A little bit disappointed that there is no smoking room even I have booked smoking room.😅"
"This property is very cheap for the size and quality of the room. There was some questionable stains on the couch but besides that everything else was rather clean for the nature of the hotel"

"The Miyako Hotel is conveniently located near shopping and transportation centers. The hotel offers an excellent dinner. The staff are extremely friendly. It’s a wonderful place to stay."
"The Ranzan Hotel is located in a great walkable section of Kyoto. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room is clean, but the bathroom fixtures are dated. The air conditioner had a hard time keeping the room cool during the heatwave."

"On our recent trip to Japan we wanted an authentic experience staying in a ryokan.
We were greeted by an extremely attentive staff who whisked our luggage away to our mountain view room. We received hotel slippers and were given a tour of the hotel. Our modest room had a low table and chairs with a tea service, a private bathroom, tatami mat floor and yukata robes. We had 3 hours until dinner so we enjoyed the private onsen nestled in the forest overlooking the forest. For ¥4000 ($27) this is not to miss. Then, at 6:00 a shuttle takes you through the small town and down to the riverside to a restaurant on the water. You cross a long bridge into the restaurant where you are greeted by the efficient staff and seated in low chairs to enjoy haute cuisine by riverside. The meal is presented in a bento box and is a work of art. The second course is a salty fish and then a soup prepared at the table. While the soup is cooking, a geisha performs and chats with you. Finally, the restaurant turns out the lights so you can listen to the frogs and watch fireflies! The shuttle returns you to the hotel and the staff has prepared the room for bed. The futon are all on the ground and it’s bedtime. The next morning, you are treated to an equally beautiful traditional savory Japanese breakfast. The shuttle will take you as far as the Honazono Station. If arriving from Kyoto, the shuttle will pick you up from there if you arrange it, or you can use the GO app to call a cab to go."
