Lovely room for our family of five. The kids had a fun time sleeping on the futon mats on the first floor. Steps away from the Nanzen-ji temple which we visited early in the morning for some peaceful time. The walk along the canal was also great during cherry blossom season.

Our family loved staying here. It was in a lovely neighborhood, easily accessible by subway. Our own private onsen in the room was really great. The free sake tasting and soft serve ice cream was a nice touch. After a full day of walking, their massage chairs were welcoming. We also had a chance to enjoy an authentic Japanese dinner in their restaurant that had a peaceful view of their garden. This stay was one of the best things about visiting Kyoto.

We loved this experience. We opted for the dinner and breakfast option - eating overlooking a beautiful zen garden which we explored. Family loved the hospitality of the staff and the unique experience. From checking your shoes at the door to eating and sleeping on the floor - it felt truly authentic and something they had mastered over the years. The area around it is also very beautiful- doing the philosopher’s walk and seeing the temples and then coming back to this place was magical.
