Very nice Ryokan! Slightly removed from the core but there are 2 buses that regularly go into town so its not a huge issue. We stayed in the private room on the lower floor with the private zen garden, highly recommend if its available as it was amazing for late night drinks, and the sounds of night and the river that runs beside the ryokan. A must stay for a traditional experience! One Laundry + dryer on site for a small charge (plus you need to buy a detergent packet from the front desk, 200yen). The Japanese style breakfast was delicious, make sure you let the staff know the day before if youd like to have it, its 1500yen per person and well worth it! Will definitely be staying here again next time.
The property was beautiful and peaceful, and our rooms were very quiet and clean. The beds were soft and comfortable and the in room bathroom and shower was very convenient. We ate breakfast at the hotel and there was the option of a western breakfast or a traditional breakfast. Both were delicious, however, I loved the Japanese style breakfast of fish, rice, egg, and vegetables. Highly recommend!
My son and I really enjoyed our stay at Ryokan Yamazaki, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful from checking us in, to making sure we ate and helping to order us cabs. We loved staying at a traditional style Japanese home, and the location was up in the north west area of Kyoto away from the crowds and tourists which we appreciated, and the beauty of the mountains and neighborhoods. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience a traditional Japanese stay.
Beautiful property, nice staff who are very helpful and kind.
The garden is lovely and the food is great.
The room was generally clean, well supplied. common areas (eg. near the fridge) can be maintained better. Also the storage space in the room (wardrobe) needed upkeep as we found hair and some unclean linen.
Great place to relax and reflect. Very Japanese experience with wonderful garden and delicious breakfast.
Plenty of pretty walks nearby.
Good coffee shop on site and Laundry facilities.
Kind and friendly staff.
The room was clean with a beautiful view of a natural environment. All the staff at the Ryokan were kind and helpful. The breakfast we ate was delicious. I would recommend staying here if you’re in Kyoto!
Loved this traditional stay in Kyoto, the breakfast was great and the tub in the bathroom was so relaxing after a long day of walking. The only thing is if you don’t have a car rental it can be tricky planning your day based on the bus routes. The bus stop is only a minute walk away but if you miss a bus you may have to wait a while for the next one. Overall loved staying here!
Stayed for two weeks and everything was wonderful! Amazing staff and facilities, great food and the staff was polite and lovely! I will absolutely be staying here again on my next trip to Japan.
Very clean room including the bathroom and shower considering it is shared. The staff was very nice and accommodating towards us even as foreigners. Staying at a ryokan is a bit of a culture shock but after the first night it you warm up to it and get a great experience. Food was also delicious.
We enjoyed our one night in this Ryokan. It was fun and authentic. There was a certian peace and relaxed mode that it put us on. We are a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens). The room #24 was spacious, clean, and well kept. Yes, we wore the provided pajamas/yukata. The shower had great pressure and was also spacious. Friendly staff and food at the restaurant was yummy. The gardens were beautiful traditional Japanese gardens. As always, loved the toilet/bidet. Loved this spot!
This place is absolutely gorgeous! The gardens are amazing, and the traditional room was spacious and comfortable.
We enjoyed a breakfast and a dinner there and found the quality and variety of dishes to be outstanding.
The room was spotless, the lamdscaping/ gardens were incredible, the linens were so warm and comfortable and the food (half board and breakfast) was out of this world! So good. Such a privilege to get to stay here. Word of advice, choose the Japanese breakfast over the American breakfast, it's amazing! Thanks for a wondergul stay.
My husband and I stayed here for part of our anniversary in Japan and absolutely loved it! Such an authentic experience and surrounded by natural beauty.
Breakfast was great. We had ordered ala carte dinner and all items were very delicious.
Staff was very respectful and friendly.
The coffee shop had amazing tea and coffee.
We didn’t venture out there for shops so can’t say anything about other nearby shopping stores.
Rooms were spacious and clean. They had a common room to use with sofa etc. Loved the stay in this ryokan.
We enjoyed the ryokan experience, sleeping on futons and tatami mats. The desugn of the building incorporated beautiful wood panelling, with rooms around a central landscaped garden. We ate breakfast, lunch and dinner there. All meals delicious.
