The property was lovely and the staff were very kind. We will definitely stay here again.
Michele, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a lovely property for couples or families, walkable to anything you’d need. 7-11 and family mart, key bus routes and the major attractions of Gion. The half board is a great experience although westerners will struggle with breakfast. The staff was fantastic.

10/10 Ryokan and Kaiseki experience :)

Perfect location, close to Yasaka shrine and Hokan-ji. The Kaiseki dinner is a must-have for first-time ryokan experience! Very friendly and attentive staffs with fluent English. Bonus: Kimono rental places are just around the corner - the classic photo spots are within 5-10 minutes walk.

The location was perfect. The tatami rooms were in very nice condition and the staff was helpful. They do not forward luggage but the Kuroneko office was in front of the hotel. It was everything we were looking for within our budget.
Kristine, 2-night trip

I stayed there one night with my mother because it is a very traditional ryokan and serves traditional Kyoto cuisine.
