We loved everything about our stay here. The room was comfortable and clean, the onsen was great, the staff, service and breakfast outstanding. This is a very traditional ryokan hotel in a wonderful location, very close to the Zenkōji temple and Nakamise St.

The staff is welcoming and kind, this is a family run business for 6 generations! The half board breakfast and dinner are exceptional, kaiseki style and every dish is presented beautifully. The location is right on the ometesando, lots of foot traffic but quiet. Futons are comfortable. We loved our stay and want to go back!
