Our family had an absolutely enjoyable time at Hazuki Kyoto. The owner is super friendly and considerate, accessible at all times through Whats app. He had provided a delicious bottle of sake and traditional snack for us to enjoy, and took us to Kyoto station on the day of check out. All around a very safe and enjoyable ryokan. We highly recommend!

If I could leave a 10 star, I totally would. This place was truly exceptional - the place held the true traditional vibe of a clean and well-kept ryokan, and the warm floor helped decompress after a long day of sightseeing. The best part of this place was the owner - he was genuinely the nicest individual we had the pleasure of coming across in Japan. He ensured that all our needs were met throughout our stay, even kindly offering and giving us a ride to Tokyo station at the end of our stay! If we ever have the opportunity to come back to Kyoto, I will not hesitate to book this place once again!

Superb
Our first experience staying in a Ryokan accommodation was a pleasant one. The place is clean and the hospitality is superb. We were offered with a free hot bath to soothed our tired legs after a day of walking in Kyoto. The owner also offered us with a free ride to Kyoto station but we are unanle to take as we need to check out early.

We stayed here for a week and it was just lovely. I cannot express how beautiful the inside of the inn was, you can tell they put a lot of thought into the visual appeal - elevated traditional Japanese style with all the current amenities one might need. The staff were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond multiple times for us. The surrounding area is a quiet and beautiful neighbourhood but only a 20 minute walk to the train line. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone who is considering a stay in Kyoto!

Perfect Japanese hospitality
Absolute gem... if you want to "feel" Kyoto this is the perfect spot. The hotel is an old geisha house which has been beautifully restored and decorated in a traditional manner but with the mod cons of air-conditioning/heating. The "rooms" consisted of 3 different rooms, bathroom, sleeping area and a dinning room. The surrounding streets have the Japanese charm and the river is <1 minute away. Where you can enjoy a relaxing stroll along its banks. The main shopping/restaurants are located only about 10 minutes walk away. The owner couldnt be more accomdating and friendly. Forget the international hotel and go truely local with this place.

Great weekend on Kyoto
It is a very nice ryokan style hotel. The building itself is renovated from an old okiya for geishas. It is also located in a good location for quick access to public transportation or walking to sightseeing locations. There is also a nice family run restaurant next door that serves seasonal dishes. The hotel is everything I hoped it would be and we had a great stay.

Unforgettable experience
Our stay at Hazuki Kyoto is our most memorable. Sleeping in a ryokan is a great experience everyone visiting this wonderful country must have. Takase, the hotel owner/manager, couldn’t be more awesome. The restaurant beside the hotel serves great Japanese food and made our experience more special. Arigato Gozaimas, Takase and to the restaurant chef and her husband! Can’t wait to go back.

Fantastic ryokan
Great guesthouse in Kyoto in a quiet area that is very atmospheric near rivers and streams. The owners are very helpful - we lost an artwork, and while it was never found they helped contact taxi companies for us. The room is large and comfortable. The beautiful pottery bathtub was great after a day of exploring. We would recommend highly and return to stay.

Struttura tipica giapponese in una zona caratteristica di Kyoto, vicino alle stazioni metro è lontana dal caos cittadino. Pulizie giornaliere ottime (asciugamani e lenzuola sempre profumati). Possibilità di bevande incluse quali: te caffè e acqua. Personale super gentile che parla inglese e davvero disponibile. Il proprietario ci ha aiutato nella scelta dei ristoranti , l’utilizzo delle metro e al momento del nostro check out ci ha dato un passaggio fino in stazione! Davvero gentili posto consigliatissimo!!

Amazing hotel
The host is super kind and welcoming. He introduced all hotel facility and even warmed the room in advance of our arrival. Also, when we check out, he even dropped us to the Tokyo station for free. His English has zero issue to ask something or communicate. I truly enjoyed the experience in this hotel. Room was very warm and cozy so that me and my friend can take a rest fully. I'll definitely stay at this hotel when I visit Tokyo again. Thank you.

この度、2泊させていただきました。とてもゆっくりとした時間を過ごすことができました。 ご家族含め、近隣のイベント情報を教えて頂いたり等とても親切にしていただきました。 立地も良く、京阪の駅から近いですが大通り沿いではないために過ごすことができます。 お宿随所にご主人のこだわりが感じられとても良い雰囲気です。 信楽焼の浴槽を使ったお風呂も部屋付きではないもののすぐに入ることができます。 日本家屋の雰囲気も味わえますし、設備が整っているため快適に過ごせます。 一階、二階に部屋がありますが、階段が急なので足が悪いかたは一階のお部屋をとることをオススメします。 今後も、京都を訪れる際にはこちらにお邪魔させて頂こうと思っております。
