Although the reception can only speak a little English, they are very helpful. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa, Australia 14 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Ryokan by the river I was expecting a lot from this place as I paid a lot of money. It was peak cherry blossom season and I think the price of the room must have exponentially increased due to demand. The place was ok. It's an old building, and I found the fixtures flawed. The ceiling to the bathroom leaked water and left a puddle on the floor! But the room was spacious and the staff were very apologetic and accomodating. In terms of location, it's abit out the way. Nice if you like abit of quiet, not nice if you have to drag your suitcase from the station to there. It's right next to the river Uji, unfortunately there were construction work going on right next to us during our stay. Uji is worth visiting though, and if it was not for my accomodation being situated there, I would have overlooked this little gem. ##### Lisa ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 19 Apr 2016 #### globalement une bonne expérience hotel ok, mais situé à 15 min à pieds de la gare la plus proche. Pour kyoto, il faut compter une bonne heure avant de s'y rendre Le personnel est accueillant mais parle très mal anglais et n'est donc pas vraiment en mesure de beaucoup aider. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Nov 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet environment Quiet hotel environment, easy access to the heritage sites ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 18 Oct 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good hotel but over-priced for what you get This was a nice hotel that was a cross between a Japanese-style ryokan and a western hotel. It had the best of both. Although we quite enjoyed our stay here, I don't think it was worth the high price. The hotel was clean, well-maintained, and located within walking distance of everything important in Uji. They provided a nice 6-course dinner with Japanese dishes (and charged extra for the drink) and also a Japanese breakfast, although the quality/taste of the food was not as great as we've had in restaurants. The staff were polite and helpful but spoke almost no English unlike all the other hotels we stayed in on our trip. We were unable to figure out what food we were being served and how to properly eat it. The public bath they have is decent although not a true "hot spring" - it's more of a giant jacuzzi. Overall it was a good hotel but not worth the C$400 we paid for the one night. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Monhatai, Bangkok 17 Oct 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### very nice city , Uji Hotel located along Uji river which is so beautiful. The hotel staffs are so nice take very good care to all of us. That was one of the things to remember. One if the staff drove us to Uji station and my friends forgot her handbag at the hotel, so he drove her back and send her at the station again. ##### Monhatai ### 10/10 Excellent #### SHAN KIU, 香港 13 Apr 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 優雅 環境舒適，服務一流，餐要預早一日訂，所以錯過了在這裡晚餐。 ##### SHAN KIU ### 8/10 Good #### Kathy, SC 10 Apr 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Peace and tranquility outside of Kyoto The staff was extremely friendly. The setting with the view over the river unbeatable. The mats relatively comfortable. Better than in some of the other hotels, but if you aren't used to it, it takes adjustment. The hardest part for a westerner is the breakfast, because it is hard to know what you are eating (especially if you have a vegetarian in the group) and it is not obvious how to put together the various ingredients they bring you. Nobody explains this to you. I do not expect them to give a western breakfast. I enjoy learning about the culture. But I feel like I didn't learn anything because even when I asked how to eat it, their English was extremely limited and it wasn't clear what to do. So I wish I could have communicated better with the staff to learn more from the experience. The onsen baths were wonderful. Very clean and relaxing. The town itself is a jewel, with beautiful, uncrowded temples hidden in the hills. ##### Kathy ### 8/10 Good #### Gretchen, California 23 Apr 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Ryokan in a lovely setting! While not much from the outside, this is a charming ryokan in the cute Kyoto suburb of Uji. I was originally upset that we weren't staying right in Kyoto, but this was soooo much better than staying downtown. Uji has a train station, which puts you into Kyoto in 18 minutes. You can walk into Uji and have a great dinner, and a lovely tea ceremony and a walk through an incredible shrine a few steps from Seizansou. And, it's right on the river, so from the bath, you can see cherry trees in bloom. Don't miss the Japanese breakfast - that was probably my favorite part of the whole experience. A bit old, but charming. Bring your own travel pillow if you don't care for the traditional Japanese buckwheat pillows. ##### Gretchen ### 6/10 Okay #### Shinji 2 Nov 2020 ##### Shinji Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kazuki 3 Jan 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness ##### Kazuki Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Koon Tak 28 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Koon Tak ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 10 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### JEAN PIERRE 7 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### JEAN PIERRE ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 5 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### TECK SENG 1 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### TECK SENG ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [BestWestern Hotels in Venice](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Venice-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d179981--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Qatar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Qatar-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d149-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Vinpearl Resort & Spa Nha Trang Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nha-Trang-Hotels-Vinpearl-Resort-Spa-Nha-Trang-Bay.h9761937.Hotel-Information) > > [Meraki Resort - Adults Only - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hurghada-Hotels-Meraki-Resort-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h3927196.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton New Orleans Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-Orleans-Hotels-Sheraton-New-Orleans-Hotel.h6914.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trout at Tadpole Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faringdon-Hotels-The-Trout-At-Tadpole-Bridge.h22410079.Hotel-Information) > > [Barefoot Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Petersburg-Clearwater-Hotels-Barefoot-Beach-Resort.h1375270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Bel-Air - Dorchester Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hotel-Bel-Air-Dorchester-Collection.h34504.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Shere](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Shere-Hotels.s50-0-d3000463779.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [QHotels Hotels in Manchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Q-Hotels.0-0-d2205--bQHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Airport Transfers in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hotel-With-Airport-Transfers.0-0-d178279-thotelwithairporttransfers.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Pilot's Villas Luxury Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Pilots-Villas-Luxury-Suites.h10625331.Hotel-Information) > > [Bangkok Publishing Residence - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bangkok-Hotels-Bangkok-Publishing-Residence-Adults-Only.h27025683.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Agonda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Agonda-Hotels.s50-0-d6252796.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Abel's Harp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shrewsbury-Hotels-Abels-Harp.h14878323.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Auchterarder](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auchterarder-Hotels.d4317.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Aparthotels Vancouver](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vancouver-Apart-Hotels.d178315-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Southsea Rocks Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portsmouth-Hotels-Southsea-Rocks-Hotel.h27278929.Hotel-Information) > > [Algar Seco Parque](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Algar-Seco-Parque.h20461863.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Killarney (KIR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/kir/edinburgh-to-killarney) > > [Aer Lingus Orlando (MCO) to Manchester (MAN) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/aer-lingus-from-orlando-intl-to-manchester/ei/mco/man) > > [Flights from Naxos (JNX) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jnx/ath/naxos-to-athens) ### Cars > [Car hire in Beverley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Beverley.d4567.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Denizli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Denizli.d1043.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Sintra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Sintra.d4694.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Mozambique Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mozambique.d123.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Orewa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orewa.dx602369)
