The property has some of the most stunning views and the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful. The food was magnificent and me and my wife loved our private onsen. It gave a much needed break from an otherwise busy vacation.

If you are looking for a traditional ryokan and a more remote area, this is the perfect place. Although it is about 45 mins from Kyoto train station, you will not be disappointed. Upon arrival, we were immediatelty greeted by the staff and welcomed with matcha tea while our bags were taken to our rooms. The rooms were very clean and beautifully decorated. Our room featured a private onsen overlooking the mountains. It was absolutely breathtaking. Both dinner and breakfast were amazing! We stayed one night and spent the next morning walking around the small town which was quite quaint and adorable. We would definitely stay here again!

A wonderful experience. The property is beautiful, the staff are so attentive to your every need and the meal service was Michelin star worthy. A little out of the way to get to but well worth the trek. Would absolutely recommend to anyone considering this property

The property was beautiful. The bath, gardens, and room were all amazing. The meal offered was really good and they give you a welcome drink and snack. There are shops, places to eat, and shrines nearby with an opportunity to walk to a waterfall. The staff was very nice and attentive. Free shuttle to the nearest bus station. Amazing and peaceful stay. I highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful remote location with a stunning property and close to a shrine. Excellent meals. Staff were incredibly kind. A little hard to get to, I suggest a taxi. We had the kaede suite with private hot spring, highly recommend. Beautiful private garden. I do wish the room was warmer in the morning and had more insulation.

A true gem of an experience
Loved this family-owned and operated Ryokan. The attention to detail and service was impeccable. The meals were an experience onto their own - absolutely delightful and delicious. Wonderful location to hike and visit temples near by. Secluded and serene location in the mountains. A little hard to get to from Kyoto, but worth the effort. Wish we had stayed longer.

15/10 stars!
I cannot recommend this place enough! It was so relaxing, beautiful, and the staff was incredible! They offer traditional and local breakfast and dinner that rivaled Michelin star restaurants! It was our first Ryokan experience but definitely will not be our last now. Such an incredible place!

Stunning is only half if it!
Overall: 12/10! Food: superb, cleanliness: absolutely spotless, hospitality: the best I have ever experienced, views: breathtaking. The accessibility going up the hill can be a bit rough but there are taxis that can take you up and drop you off only a few steps from the doors. We arrived from downtown Kyoto and had no trouble finding where we needed to go. There are shops and temples all around the Ryokan (all within a ten minute walk), stunning trees and flowers along the way. We were not afraid to try out the sleepwear and a traditional Yukata for dinners, which is a big thing considering we are picky about our clothing. We were lucky enough to have a room the had it's own Onsen and garden. We spent a lot of our time drinking tea and eating sweets by the garden, spending quiet and peaceful time with each other and taking care of our bodies with "our vacation from our vacation". I have a food allergy and every meal we shared at this beautiful location was specifically catered towards my needs; I had no fear that there was cross-contamination or something was not translated properly. We felt at home the minute we walked in. We were respected and gracefully shown how everything in the Ryokan worked. This was our favorite part of our whole trip. Beautifull view of not only the country side but of the Japanese culture as well. We would come back to Japan just to stay in this Ryokan again.
