Ryokanit – Shigaraki

”全てにおいて満足でした。ただ一つだけ残念な事に部屋の露天風呂、浴槽のお湯がずっと漏れてました。満点の夜空に静けさを味わいたいのにずっとチョロチョロと水漏れの音が聞こえお湯がどんどん減っていく...本当に残念でした。”

”Overpriced. But good location.”

”Hieno japanilainen kokemus. Hyvää ruokaa ja palvelua. Matka Kioton keskustasta parikymmentä minuuttia. Hotellin bussi käy hakemassa ja vie asemalle.”

”I stayed for the weekend, visiting nearby temple areas and taking baths. Pickup from bus station was nice, food was great (but you cook your own in "hot pots". Baths were ok. Not very service oriented staff, english skills very limited.”

”Viihtyisä joen rannalla sijaitseva hotelli, jossa japanilaistyyliset huoneet. Vajaa kilometri matkaa Ujin asemalle (JR), josta pääsee nopeasti Naraan ja Kiotoon. Taksi Kiotosta maksaa n. 5000 jeniä, mikäli viimeinen juna ehtii mennä - Uji hiljenee illalla nopeasti. Henkilökunta puhuu kohtuullista englantia.”

”Viehättävä paikka, mutta pahasti remontin tarpeessa. Kokolattiamattoineen ja muovitapetteineen hyvin tunkkainen, vaikka sijainti ja konsepti perinteisenä kylpylähotellina voisivat muuten olla hyvinkin onnistuneita.”

”Amazing get-away from Kyoto's city center. Public bath (onsen like facilities) were great. Our room was spacious and futons were comfy. Location was in the middle of residential area and the nearest train station was some 900 meters away. We ended up walking to Kyoto train station which was less than 2,5km. Great experience!”

”My fiancée and I stayed at a ryokan for the first time, and Ryokan Rangetsu couldn't have been a better experience! We stayed for one night, and when it was time to leave, we wished we had stayed longer. The ryokan is truly beautiful, and the staff is very attentive and friendly. Our room maid, whose name we regrettably cannot remember, was polite and made our visit feel truly special. Our room was spacious, clean and cozy, and the backyard very beautiful. We also enjoyed the outdoor bath a lot!...

”Very happy”

”We had a pleasant stay at the Yachiyo ryokan that gave the taste of Japanese accomodation characteristics. Service was fairly smooth and the whole place was really tidy although maybe slightly outdated. The location was not super central but on the other hand it provided easy access to the Path of Philosophy, some temples and museum of modern art which btw had an exquisite Katagami exhibition at the time (recommend). Food was not included on our ryokan package so cannot comment on that.”
