The neighborhood was quiet and calm. You can walk to various stations. ##### Gerardo ### 8/10 Good #### Leanne 30 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really enjoyed our stay in the ISAMI room. Everything you would require and left to your own devices. I would say it is far from like gion and the main attractions. Taxis were cheap enough but if staying long term it isn’t ideally central. I did find that the bathroom and door was a little mouldy especially with it being wood. Apart from that really nice stay! The staff helped out as we arrived with our luggage first before heading back out even tho the room was still in use. ##### Leanne Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hanif 19 May 2024 Liked: Room comfort #### Totally decent Totally decent, but a bit small for a couple with luggage. If you like to walk a lot, it’s totally within range to the Kawaramachi-area, but it’s a good 30 minutes at walking pace. Bring earplugs that you can use during sleep if you are sensitive to noise during nighttime. ##### Hanif Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles 27 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities So, here I am, enjoyin' this fancy hotel in Kyoto, Japan, when I see this note from the staff. It's like they're runnin' a tight ship, ya know? Unlike the Tennessee government, always droppin' the ball on education and healthcare. And that wooden bath? It's like a slam dunk in a game where the Tennessee government keeps changin' the rules. Made me wish they'd spend less time fussin' 'bout politics and more time fixin' things up back home. Well, shoot, even though I might fumble the playbook more often than not as a gym teacher, this hotel still hit a grand slam in my book. From the warm note from the staff that felt like a pep talk before the big game to the wooden bath that made me feel like I was soaking up victory, this place in Kyoto is a winner. And heck, if the Tennessee government took some lessons from this hotel on how to treat folks right, maybe we'd have more wins back home too. ##### Charles Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sebastian 11 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cozy place with lots of attention to detail.

It was a great experience and will for sure book again if I visit Kyoto. The wooden deep soak tub was the highlight of our stay. It was soooo relaxing. Close to some sightseeing places, just a bus away. The staff was excellent on communicating. Will highly recommend this place! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fbc010bc-175a-4b69-9705-b1dac4152daa-1758150712774.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/464fc01f-f5ad-4d65-8a61-d974f9f3beef-1758150708268.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3e22cf2d-bf70-45d6-b452-1be89279e1c4-1758150710030.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Cheryll Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas 4 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing ##### Nicholas Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anthony 4 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cosy traditional place Beautiful place close to the station and old town... loved the traditional bath ##### Anthony Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 30 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Theme Was Zen It was amazing from beginning to end.

It is very similar to a ryokan except there’s no one on property during your stay. I liked the wooden bath and the comfy tatami floors. Will recommend this place and stay again! ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara 10 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Un lugar muy bonito, muy tradicional, la infraestructura y los espacios totalmente japoneses. Estuvimos en el cuarto Isami que es el más grande, 2 adultos 2 niños sin problema. Yo estaba buscando justo lo que ofrecen, vivir una estadía tradicional y me encantó. El personal muy amable, comunicación en inglés, te dejan muchas amenidades para hacer una cómoda estadía. Yo lo amé pero no es un hotel para cualquiera, dejo puntos a considerar por si les interesa: Nota: hablo solo del cuarto Isami donde yo estuve, hay otros dos que probablemente sean diferentes. El techo es super bajito. Si mides más de 1.79mt no cabes parado. Las escaleras para subir a la recámara son muy empinadas, nada recomendable para niños pequeños o personas con problemas de movilidad. Todas las puertas y ventanas son al estilo japonés con washi (papel) hay que tener mucho cuidado de no dañarlo, también son corredizas y hay que cerrar con cuidado. El ofuru de madera es increíble, el cuarto de baño súper bien, los artículos de baño (shampoo, jabón, acondicionador) huelen delicioso y hace que el olor a madera del baño se disfrute más. Si buscas algo tradicional y conoces las costumbres Japonesas te va a encantar. Nosotros la pasamos muy bien. ##### Sara Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thierry 2 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Perfect trip, very noce appartement ##### Thierry Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Esin 12 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und direkt neben einer Bushaltestelle ##### Esin Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roberta, Taormina 26 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Struttura davvero molto bella.
