Kyoto Takasegawa Bettei, hotel in Kyoto

Kyoto Takasegawa Bettei features accommodations in the center of Kyoto, a 12-minute walk from Sanjusangen-do Temple and 0.6 miles from TKP Garden City Kyoto.

Very kind and helpful staff. Location was about a 15 min walk to Kyoto station (which might feel far during summer because it's so hot, but I'd imagine it to be a nice walk any other season.) I loved our room and soaking in the bathtub. Our room was beautiful, spacious and clean. The room temperature was also good and stayed cool during summer.

Matsui Honkan, hotel in Kyoto

Ideally located just a 2-minute walk from lively Nishiki Market and Ponto-cho Street, Matsui Honkan features large public baths and chic Japanese-style rooms.

This place was pretty great! I liked that the rooms were like an apartment without a kitchen. Very spacious. The staff were very friendly always helpful. The breakfast there was delicious and loved the public baths there. While we had our own private shower/bath in our room, I enjoyed the communal baths in the basement. It was also nice that each time I went to the bath, I had it all to myself. The Ryokan was also by the big market and it was only a few minutes away by foot. Other places like castles and parks were also within a 20 minute walking distance. It was also easy and affordable to take taxi's as well if you didn't feel like walking.

    Simply stunning. Lovely to stay in a ryokan, a traditional Japanese inn. Our lady was exceptional, giving first class treatment in talking us through many dishes she served, constantly topping our water, cleaning our teapot. V filling so be warned and you get to try things you wouldn’t get these days or in chain hotels. The onsen was a relief from the long journey. The futons v comfy. It was so unique to switch off, enjoy tranquility.

    An authentic ryokan, in a building that's probably well over 100 years old. The rooms have tatami mats and futons and the onsen is beautiful. It's like staying in someone's home! This is not a super-swish modern hotel, so if that's what you want go elsewhere, but if you want a place with real character, staffed by people who treat you as long-lost friends, then this is the place for you. We will certainly return next time we're in Kyoto.

    This Ryokan is located near several bus stops, perfect to sightsee Kyoto. The JR station is 10 min bus far away. The staff was very kind and warm as a real example of Japanese hospitality. This stay offers also several services like bike rental and onsen free tickets. The location was very relaxfull and quiet. Our room was equipped with tatami floor and futon beds. The room has several amenties, shower and bath tub. It has been a real japanese experience. We loved it!

    If you want to spend a few nights in a real ryokan (not the edulcorated-for-tourist replicas), this might be the real deal. Wooden and paper panels, tatami, futons, internal garden, traditional shower, in-room tea-set, yukatas, and many other details. My kids (14 and 11 y.o) said this was the best hotel in our 3-weeks-trip throughout Japan. The staff is very kind and eager to make your stay great.
