Inn Kawashima

I had a wonderful stay. The ryokan is beautiful, impeccably clean, and very peaceful. It’s in a great central location, making it easy to explore Kyoto. The walls are a bit thin, but that’s to be expected in a traditional ryokan and it didn’t take away from my experience. The hosts were polite and professional throughout my stay. One of the hosts made me feel especially welcome. She was incredibly attentive and even spoke fluent Spanish, my native language, which was a thoughtful and much appreciated touch. I came here looking for peace and quiet, and I found exactly that. I would happily stay here again!

Great location, friendly staff. Take note of hallway toilet, shower , sink (shared) Also- no door locks on the room or hotel front door. Apparently it is safe, but it is hard to get used to.

Nothing.

Very authentic experience, beautiful ryokan in a perfect position in the hearth of Kyoto. The owner is kind and speaks english very well. He kept our luggage and lent us umbrellas during the check out day.

traditional style of Ryokan atmosphere, access to restaurants and public transport were exceptional. walking distance to some of tourist destinations

stairs were too steep. one bath room and toilet in the facility. not many access to go around the whole facility. middle garden was a bit smaller than it looked in the photo.
