”Nice spacious room with tatami, clean and true to the photos. Obviously the tatamis are not the most comfy option there is on general but it was really fine and we were happy to have tried. The house is well equipped too. The neighborhood is very charming, close to the Nijo-jo castle, but not that touristy. Lots of narrow streets, cute coffee places, good bars and local restaurants, plus an area that you wouldn't necessarily plan on visiting. Very good value for the price overall, would...

”Ho trovato il ryokan Higurashi-Sou veramente bellissimo. Per me e il mio compagno è stato davvero rilassante poter riposare nella camera di questo alloggio. Inoltre il servizio gratuito di Sento pubblico e la possibilità di utilizzare l'area cucina sono stati davvero indispensabili. Abbiamo apprezzato tanto la cura nei dettagli per far sentire gli ospiti accolti nel miglior modo possibile.
Grazie! Speriamo di tornare presto a Kyoto e alloggiare di nuovo qui.”

”This was one of our favorite stays in Japan. Our room was clean, organized and a great size! The beds were super comfy and we had great sleeps. The area is quiet and is close to a quaint river. We used their luggage delivery service as we arrived in Kyoto before check in. Their office is about a 5 minute walk from Kyoto station, and you can drop your luggage off and they will deliver it to your hotel. This allowed us to enjoy the day without our luggage before our check in! We would recommend...

”Absolutely perfect. I needed a quick one night stay, walking distance from Kyoto Station and it had everything I needed. The room is small but no bigger than it needs to be when you just want a bed to fall asleep on after a long journey.
The owner met me at the door, welcomed me in, gave me a tour and was generally very helpful and friendly. I'd definitely stay again.”

”Amazing experience with a friendly staff who made us feel very welcome! They offered suggestions for nearby restaurants and a free ticket to the public onsen next door. Definitely visiting again!”

”It is located across the bridge from the popular restaurant district. We found it extremely easy to get to. The staff greeted us warmly and were extremely helpful. The breakfast was incredible and was the cherry on top for our experience. The only advice I have to share is that there are many mosquitos in the garden (can’t be helped) and to be ready for breakfast 30 minutes before your time. ”

”This olace is great! The ladys who take care of this place are nice and friendly. We are very near from multiple restorant and shop. Its was really nice to live a japanese experience in the Ryokan. The ladys lrepare for us the traditilnal bath. Every evening we had a great tea. The place is spotless. Even thought we have to share toilet and shower its really convenient. We had good sleep. I recomand this palace to anybody who wants to try a Ryokan. For sure if I ever go back in Kyoto i would go...

”The area was very quiet which was nice but did mean it was a bit of a walk to the nearest shop.
The check-in process was all automated and quite straightforward but be aware that the emails are sent in Japanese and I had to pop these in a translation app.
The building is small but the room was a generous size. The place is slightly dated but very clean. ”

"We had a wonderful stay in Kyoto. The breakfast was excellent and a great way to start the day. Our room was one of the most basic options, but it was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. A big highlight was the laundry room, well equipped with multiple washing and drying machines. Washing cost 600 yen, and drying was priced by time, which was very convenient during our trip. Service was excellent and the staff was accommodating."
"Sisustus on tyylikäs, jo hotelliin sisääntulo rauhoittaa zen-tyylillään. Huone oli erinomaisessa kunnossa, isot vuoteet kolmelle ja toimiva tilan käyttö. Vierailijoille oli hygieniatarvikkeita. Pidin monipuolisesta aamiaisesta ja henkilökohtaisesta palvelusta. Hotellin kylpylä oli mahtava lisä positiiviseen kokemukseen!
Hotelli sijaitsee suht lähellä Kioton asemaa. Sinne pääsee metrolla, taksilla tai viileämmällä säällä kävellen. Hotellin vieressä on muutamia kauppoja ja varsinaiset ostoskadut ovat noin 15-20 minuutin kävelymatkan päässä."
"The hotel is located nicely in the middle of a shopping area and not too far from 2 different subway lines. Only downside with the location is that a taxi cant really get right infront of the hotel but it's not a long walk (3 minutes) from the closest drop off location.
Checking in and out is easy and quick with the self service desks and there is staff to help if you require assistance.
Didnt have much interraction with the staff except for one at reception and the cleaning staff of the floor and all were very friendly.
Only downside (for me) was how hard the bed was but that's a preference thing.
With all that said unless the hotel prices itself out it will stay on my radar for when I come to Kyoto again (6 days is not enough!)."
