This property, the owners and the staff were all wonderful. Try the traditional breakfast, it is a must do. The property is charming, the size of the room is a great value and everything is clean and orderly. The location is superior, close to Nishiki Market, high end shopping and only about a 10 minute walk to public transportation. Many good food choices close by from small authentic restaurants to the many food stalls in Nishiki Market Taxis as very reasonable in Kyoto, so feel free to use them if you don’t wish to walk This property is highly recommended.

Comfortable Ryokan in Kyoto

Very friendly and sweet couple running the ryokan. The made you feel like you were home. The ryokan was very clean and the rooms were spacious. We appreciated the private bathroom and also used the public bath. They provided hot water and tea along with wonderful cookies. We really like the location which was adjacent to Nishiki Market. We would definitely stay here again.

It was so nice. I went with 4 of my friends (5 including me). The place wasn’t so big, pretty small inn. The old man and old lady welcomed us extremely kindly and were engaging in conversations. They try their very best speaking English so they can appeal to the foreigners and I thought that was very nice. The public bath was also small, but was well taken care of, I had a nice bath and well rested sleep. Inside the rooms we were provided with Yukata, very comfortable to sleep in. They even offer snacks as a freebie on the table inside the room. Next to the Nishiki Market. Overall, such an amazing place. I would definitely book again if I ever go back to Kyoto!

This was an amazing place! We had never stayed in a Royal con before, and very glad we chose this location. The owners were extremely friendly, and the room was very comfortable.

It was my first time in Japan, so Kyo-no-Yado Kagihei was my very first ryokan experience. I stayed for a few days and loved every moment of it. The Japanese style room was very comfortable and cozy. I appreciated the daily restock of tea, cookies, and bottled drinks. The property is located in a very convenient location as I was able to go sightseeing, shop, and even just wander around Kyoto to appreciate the slow vibe. Tomo and Yuko, the owners of the ryokan, were so sweet and kind to me. I felt so welcomed and at home. The entire staff is just as gentle and considerate. Highly recommend this property. I already miss everyone (and the Japanese breakfast!).

Quaint Traditional Japanese Hotel

This ryokan exceed all expectations . The two owners of the house, a couple, were the sweetest people. Super helpful and they knew english. The rooms were so cool in traditional style and the public bath was cool to see. I will say personally i found the beds to be a bit too firm, but my travel companions thought they were better than some hotel beds. So it is just personal preference but i’d stay here again. Loved the traditional breakfast we had and the laundry service is phenomenal, you pay the lady owner and she does it for you! Overall great place and the location was amazing, walking distance from all the shopping.
