    Una notte davvero tradizionale

    Ottimo compromesso per chi vuole provare l'esperienza del ryokan senza spendere un'esagerazione. La stanza era enorme, forse un po' spoglia ma di certo il linea con il minimalismo giapponese. Tatami pulitissimi, futon comodo. In stanza c'è tutto il necessario per un soggiorno confortevole. All'ingresso yukata molto carini e comodi a disposizione degli ospiti e drink gratis (sia analcolici che birra ma quest'ultima con qualche limitazione di orario). La struttura ha un onsen privato a disposizione in diverse fasce orarie, noi ne abbiamo approfittato dopo cena ed è stato un sollievo dopo la giornata in giro per templi. Punto di forza sicuramente i pasti, sia la cena che la colazione tipiche giapponesi: un'esperienza da fare sicuramente, servita in un ambiente accogliente e con materie prime buonissime. La posizione è forse un po' decentrata rispetto alle attrazioni principali di Kyoto ma a pochi passi dalla stazione centrale che ritengo essere un vantaggio non da poco.

    Sitio perfecto para experimentar el estilo japonés

    Muy buena ubicación junto a la estación de Kyoto. Super silencioso, perfectamente limpio, y con un personal súper amable. Pudimos hacer la colada, y además te ofrecían una bebida de cortesía que pudimos disfrutar en el hall.

    Sehr schönes Ryokan. Personal sehr freundlich, auch wenn nahezu fast kein Englisch gesprochen wird.
