The Ryokan is conveniently located less than 10min walk from Kyoto Station and many bus lines, restaurants nearby. The room was as advertised, simple but functional and very clean, PJs provided. The staff was very helpful, explaining directions and available although I arrived late. Note that you have to be out of the room between 10am to 3pm for cleaning purposes, also 11pm curfew

Great location, clean room, friendly staff

By far my favourite lodging in 3 weeks in Japan across Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo. Very good value for money, very traditional, super convenient location, super clean and spacious traditional Ryokan room. Very gentle host!

Favourite accommodation in Japan

I loved this ryokan! 
It's is very cleaned and the owners are extremely kind and nice.
My stay here was very relaxing and the accommodation is only 6 minutes away from the station.

Maybe, to make it even better, food could be served (at least breakfast) to have a more complete Ryokan experience. In my room I found everyday the hot water and matcha tea. 

Wearing a yukata was a plus!

Moreover it's at 6 minutes from Kyoto station

Relaxing stay in this Ryokan

I give a high rating to this ryokan, because it is nothing short of how it presents itself on photos. It has clean, albeit very small, rooms. Clean bathroom with plenty hot water. Excellent and helpful staff upfront. And it's located in the center of Kyoto, a short walk of Kyoto station. What's not to like?

Exactly as advertises itself

The traditional ryokan is located in the buzz near Kyoto station yet has its own serene and quiet environment. It took less than 10 minutes to walk here from the station. 

As it is close to the station, there are also many bus lines serving in the area, making visiting to attractions convenient and a breeze. 

The room given was clean and whether you want it or not, the room will be cleaned between 10am to 3pm everyday and no one is to be inside the room. Wifi connection was strong consistently. 

Hairdryer, hot water flask and kettle, towels and pajamas are provided in the room. 

Love this traditional place and highly recommend! 


Perfect place! 

only 3-5 minutes by walk from Kyoto Station
you are able to find out quite easy by opposite from 108Lawson of the junction.
the Ryokan were really nice and clean, staff very friendly and helpful
we are very enjoy and satified on room and serive.

easy access, great room, nice feature

On the door of Ryokan, is a discrete sign that states 'this is a Japanese Inn, not a Guest House or Hostel'. The notice is obviously directed at young travelers seeking a bed, but unwittingly, also serves to inform the guests of the high standards within.

This small, family-run Ryokan adheres to the traditional standards of inn-keeping. It is compact, functional and spotlessly clean. If you're visiting the country for the first time then Ryokan Kyoraku provides an introduction to all things Japanese!

There is a long list of house-rules that are explained by the stern, unsmiling owner when you check-in. However, there is an unwritten rule you should be aware off-no small talk and no chitchat please!!

Conveniently located, well-maintained, family-run, reasonably-priced. Highly recommended!!

Highly recommended!!

Great location and friendly staff. A very quiet street and the ryokan is also quiet with no guest noise etc.  It is comfortable and clean but as I was walking a lot over 2 days the bed was not ideal for me and the location was not as close to the main sights as I had hoped.  As a base close to Kyoto Station it is good.  There were no breakfast facilities etc.

Traditional ryokan close to Kyoto Station

Great location. The staff were extremely helpful and between my sparse spoken Japanese and their sparse spoken English we were able to communicate OK. No food is served here but the ryokan is with 5 minutes of Kyoto Station and its surrounding restaurants and cafes. Its also almost adjacent to Higashi Hongan Ji Temple, a few minutes walk to Nishi Hongan Ji Temple, the Shimabara Gate and Sumiya Ageya. Between 10am and 3pm they clean etc so guest are required to be out of the ryokan between these times. Good value.

Standard ryokan very close to Kyoto Station

I had a great overall experience here. I was looking for something close to the train station at a reasonable cost. Everything else i had looked up was tons more cost-wise.  This ryokan is located about a 5 minute walk from the Kyoto main station, which was convenient for me given i was travelling with a lot of luggage.  They don't accept late check-ins (my flight was arriving at around 11pm).  

That said, it's very basic. A very clean room with a small tv, no view, tiny restroom (no space to comfortably put a toiletry bag), normal sized shower, small fridge, small desk, and a fold-out futon to sleep on.  The futon itself was comfortable enough.  They're also nice enough to provide you with a electrical outlet converter 
 - a nice benefit given that my last hotel did not and it came in handy because i had forgotten mine for my computer.  Wi-fi however, was very weak and spotty which sucks for doing research of things to do around the city, which is why i docked a point for them - nowadays i feel this is essential for any place you stay in, especially a budget place like this for commuters (not meant to be a place to disconnect). Everything was fine and expected based on the price. 

The owner of the ryokan was very nice - and speaks some english. He was always very accommodating and friendly.  

Note that they do not offer food services there.  They also prefer you return to the ryokan by 11pm, however, you are able to return after that - you just ring the doorbell, but given that it's a small mom and pop shop, you're basically waking them up to let you in.  Just something to consider.  

Would definitely stay here again, but don't expect a lot of luxuries.
