Beautiful Ryokan located near Kyoto station with almost 200 years of history. Breakfast and dinner options were superb. Staff was super friendly and attentive. It was also really nice meeting the Chef and Owner. Will definitely stay back here again on my next visit to Kyoto.

This was a warm and friendly experience in a traditional Ryokan, but with all the modern conveniences, including electronics chargers and air conditioning. It was delight to enter the cool and serene spaces from the sticky hot city streets. The staff was lovely and the room was too.

Very close to train station and easy to get to. Staff were very friendly and kind. Room was impeccable and very comfortable. Showers/Onsen are small private rooms that can be time reserved. Breakfast was a good traditional meal. Although beautiful, The place is noisy both from inside and street noises. They do provide earplugs. Do find it to expensive for the experience provided. The onsen experience being just a hot tiled bath and nothing more. In hindsight wouldn’t have spent this much for it.

A gem in Kyoto. A short walk from Kyoto station, Kyoto Tower, Higashi Hongan-ji Temple and Shōseien Garden, this place is like stepping back in time to the classical Japan architecture, interiors and culture that drew me to visit. The staff were simply amazing. I stayed in a premium room, which was spacious and had an ensuite 2 piece bathroom. A traditional Japanes breakfast was served in my room. It was delicious and a great way to start each day in Kyoto. If you want an immersive experience of the charm of 19th century Japan, this offers that ambience amd experience.

A complete highlight of our trip! This inn has a rich 187 year history, it's impeccably maintained, with an excellent staff. Every day when we returned from our adventures our traditional room was crisp and tidy with a new flower arrangement, and hot water for tea and coffee. We had a traditional kaiseki-style dinner with the owner/chef, which was fantastic!! After dinner the owner gave us a light talk about the inn and answered questions. Lastly, the staff- the front desk and the manager of the inn were top rate! They helped us endlessly from more amentities, to luggage, to ramen recommendations. All of the rest of the staff was very kind and respectful too. Although the bath does not come from hot spring water, it was glorious to end the day with the most perfect warm, relaxing bath.

Our stay was beautiful and a fantastic experience as a family to get a small taste of traditional Japanese culture. Everything from sleeping on futons to sitting on tatami mats to our own private onsen made for a memorable stay .

Understand what you are signing up for with this hotel- if you are taking trains to get to this hotel, be ready for a bit of a walk on some very narrow streets. But convenience store is nearby, staff is very attentive and personable and bath experience was a 10+.

We - a newly married couple - stayed at Izuyasu for two nights in the room called Yuu, which was quite big. It contained a bedroom with a small sitting area overlooking a parking lot, a toilet, and a dinning area with a view towards a small garden. The dinning area had modern chairs which we appreciated since we aren't used to sitting on the floor. Two bottles of water, coffe and tea was included. The bedroom had two futons on top of more modern mattresses. Although the beds became more raised and slightly more confortable than just the traditional futon beds, it was not comfortable to sleep here for us who are used to western modern beds. The ryokan also has three small bathrooms which you book for an hour. To have a bathroom just for the two of us is very luxurious so we appreciated this. But it seems like not all guests understand that you are supposed to shower properly before getting into the bath since we saw that there was hair and dirt in the baths on both evenings. This is something we were instructed on upon check in but my suspicion is that some guests neglect this completely or just rinse their bodies quickly. The check in was really nice and thorough - they have staff who speak excellent English and they take the time to sit down with you and go through all the information about the hotel while offering you a small sweet and green tea. The ryokan is clean and well maintained.
