We loved the space and the attention to detail was fantastic. Breakfast was absolutely amazing. The host customized the breakfast based on a couple conversations we had. Everything was delicious, and we were even given a detailed list, in English, of everything she prepared for us. The breakfasts at this stay were a highlight of our entire trip to Japan. We will definitely try to stay here again when we're back in Kyoto!

    This ryokan is nestled in a very scenic location in the mountain village of Ohara, about an hour north of Kyoto proper by bus. The area is beautiful and very natural. The Onsen is well kept and staff is friendly, although communication was sometimes difficult as an English speaker, but never an obstacle. Meals were included in the stay, very traditional breakfast and hotpot dinners, healthy and delicious. There is also an adorable dog that lives on the property.

    Everything about the property was divine! The apartment has everything you could possibly need for a holiday home and all the appliances and fittings are new and great quality. My family stayed in one of the two bedroom apartments and it felt very spacious. The biggest bonus was having two toilets! Such a luxury! We loved the location which is close to Gion with lots of restaurant options and close to bus routes.
