I can’t say enough good things about this beautiful place. It is built in the traditional Japanese style and you can either request futons or western beds. Location is impeccable. It’s within a walking distance to all the major attractions. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff is so amazing that no other hotel comes close. We were always helped by a truly wonderful man from the reception, Kodera-sun. What an exceptional human being! He bent over backwards to make sure all our needs were met and that we were satisfied. But not only that! He did it with a smile and a kind word, happy to be helpful! It truly brightened up our day to see him in the morning and made returning to the hotel, after a long day of touring, feel like home. I had a knee injury and all the staff at the hotel was doing everything to help me. Additionally, we bought a lot of items and the hotel was extremely helpful organizing shipping to the US. We received a world-class service at this hotel, and I will never forget it. I will definitely return. Thank you again, especially to Kodera-sun for making our trip to Kyoto especially memorable!!!!

This was our second ryokan in Japan with mostly traditional elements but with permanent and very comfortable beds in the room for our fragile Western needs (haha) and we loved every bit of our space. A nice little seating area, gorgeous and updated shower, bath, and separate toilet (the lid opened when you opened the door! Most upgraded toilet we had all trip), a mini fridge with a few free beers and water, kettle and pour over coffee, all the bathroom items you may have forgotten, and the most delicious smelling locally made small portions of soap, oils and lotion. We booked too late for a meal here, can't speak to that, but were treated to tea and this delicious ice cream after returning from a day out, it was like layered tiramisu ice cream? Basic coffee and pastries in the morning were nice to get out the door. Location could not have been better if you plan to stay near Gion and many of the temples and shrines, with an easy 15 minute walk if you want to head downtown. The woman helping us and seeing us in and out each day was so incredibly nice too.

The hotel is located in a beautiful location, in the Gion district. Easy to access with public transportation. We were welcomed with delicious green tea and some sweets. The staff is very friendly and always happy to help! The rooms are HUGE and spacious, as well as very simple and beautifully decorated. The coffee and mini croissants for breakfast was a nice little detail we didn’t expect to get. The beds were comfortable and we also enjoyed both our own bath and the public one. It was always nice to come back to such a peaceful space after a whole day of exploring busy areas.

Our room was very spacious and full of everything we could ever need and more for a relaxing and comforting stay. The tub and the shower were both great to have. The bed is big and super comfy. The workers at the ryoken SAKANOUE were the best and were able to help answer any questions we had. The breakfast in the morning was a great start to our day. The location is very convenient for getting around all of the best parts of Kyoto that we wanted to explore. It’s on a quiet and relaxing block, but a quick walk away from all of the best shopping and restaurants in Kyoto.

Amazing experience, the hosts were so friendly and got us a wedding card which was beautiful. The Ryokan was incredible, the facilities were spotless and it was everything we hoped it would be. They also had private baths which were free to reserve which just made the night even better. Location was right in the heart of the old town as well!
