Very nice, we hope to be there next year.
Traditional Japanese Ryokan a short walk from Nanzenji temple. A bit dated, but our room looked renovated and it was very clean.
Room was spacious and we booked one with a private bath (pricey) but it was worth it for the relaxing atmosphere after walking in Kyoto.
For food, my fiancee and I had the traditional Japanese breakfast. It was served at the restaurant attached to the Ryokan. The garden was nice and provided an calming atmosphere.
Note that this place didn't have an elevator as far as I saw. So if you bring luggage that is heavy be ready to bring it back down the stairs.
The ryokan is very elegant and traditional at the same time. The staff is friendly and polite. We had a room with private onsen and the whole experience was amazing. In the room you also get high quality tea and amenities, including bath salt and spa stuff. The food is wonderfully served and also very tasty, even the quick dinner which needs no prior booking. The sukiyaki and sushi we had were really tasty and the Japanese breakfast was slightly different each morning. The restaurant is an atmospheric elegant garden restaurant with floor seating. One might say it is a bit pricey but it is very well worth it.
The location is just wonderful, close to the Nanzenji temple. In the afternoon it gets quite crowded, but in the morning when nobody is around it's very pleasant.
Gorgeous garden, wonderful bath and service. Thank you for such a great stay in Kyoto
