Had a wonderful time at Kanade. Friendly staff, large clean room, and serene garden made for a relaxing stay. We also booked the private rooftop bath and traditional Japanese dinner once we arrived; both were excellent.

This ryokan was beautiful and very clean, and the staff were always friendly and accommodating. You can also reserve the private onsen for about 1000 yen for an hour. The bus stop was a short walk away so it wasn't too bad travelling to different parts of the city. Loved this place!

Very traditional and wonderful stay in Kyoto. Beautiful garden with close walk to the bus station. Staff was kind and we enjoyed the breakfast. If you want a traditional Japanese breakfast, it’s a wonderful place to try it that only improved each day we stayed. Just know you will get to try new and authentic food so be open to trying new things.

A beautiful traditional inn/hotel, our room looked over the garden- very serene and lovely to take an evening walk in (all lit up) and likewise a morning walk (dressed in the provided yukatas). A little further out from some of the main Kyoto tourist spots but that's fitting for the location and Kyoto is very well connected with buses and the subway. Only wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you

The ryokan is located a little outside (about 30 minutes walk from Gion), but the bus connection is good and some temples are within easy walking distance.
The garden is beautiful and our room was large and clean. The service was friendly and courteous. Can only recommend it.

An unforgettable stay in Kyoto! Every detail was carefully considered by this property and its staff/owners.
High quality amenities and bedding, spacious rooms with gorgeous views. Very quiet.
The food was the best we had in Japan. Both breakfast and dinner. Beautifully presented. More art than food.
The staff was very helpful, kind and friendly, like a family.
Thank you Ryokan Kanade and everyone who welcomed us so warmly. You were our best memory of Japan.

We wanted the ryokan experience and perhaps this is why the room was fairly basic. I would say it is more of a 3.5 star hotel. We overlooked the garden which was ok… we weee expecting more The neighborhood was quiet and nice, about a 15 min walk to the a beautiful temple, the Philosphers Path and the zoo. We don’t think we will stay here again

The location of the hotel was off the beaten path. This resulted in the area being quite and relaxing. My room was clean and spacious with a clear view of a rather small, yet aesthetic, Japanese zen garden. What surprised me most was how comfortable the futons are. Only major issue is the lack of access to mainstream transportation. With only a few bus stops in the area longer trips across Kyoto may require one or two extra buses transfers.

very nice Ryokan
The Ryokan Kanade is very nice, the room tiny but beautiful - no place for luggage - the view is beautiful into the garden. As we had to leave early because of a tour on one day, they were not able to give us a little lunchbox or a coffee or anything although we paid for it.
We booked the dinner as well - it is very pricey but absolutely delicious and the chef is incredible - so kind and perfection in every detail - but be aware - for me it was really perfect - for my 20 year old son tough it was more like an appetiser - he was still very hungry afterwards. But he loved the food and the futon bed and everything!

This is a beautiful place to stay but infortunatelly the first night we found hairpins all over the place(main room, shower, toilet) I could have understood one , but i found a total of 6-7 hairpins so apparently the room was not cleaned properly. I took these to the front desk and they only said sorry, did not offer any cleaning or anything. I would have given it 5 stars but i expect better cleaning. The staff was friendly and the garden is beautiful. The jacuzzi on the top floor also was not cleaned properly and while we were in it dark things started floating around.
