Guest house a Kyoto Nord

“L'architettura del ryokan è bellissima, di legno e bambù all'antica. Spaziose le camere, perfetti i bagni. La pulizia impeccabile. Il personale è dedito e gentilissimo. La decorazione zen e particolarmente elegante crea una atmosfera particolare. Era quello che cercavo e che volevo vivere.”

“Vicino a Gion e alla metro, la posizione è buona sia per la sera che per spostarsi. La struttura però internamente è un po’ da rivedere, poca cura e cose un po’ vecchie. Molto utile la lavatrice interna alla camera.”

“Great breakfast and dinners. Lovely location and rooms. Wonderful staff.”

“The owner was very lovely and polite, he prep matcha tea for welcoming us also offering fresh bread making in the morning for our breakfast but my family were very tired from a long day travelling and activities we did in the area, we just want to sleep in so we had to miss out on that. House was clean. The bath was the highlight for us. Just the tap in both toilets a bit hard to operate so we had to wash our hands in the bathroom instead.”

“Super location and quiet room with real Japanese style bed on floor. Practical for trips into town or further since bus stops are right beside the building. Locally within walking distance there are ramen restaurants also temples and the Philosophers path. Suited me perfectly as I don't spend much time in hotel I like to be out taking photos. If I visit Kyoto again I would love to stay here again.”

“Ho trovato il ryokan Higurashi-Sou veramente bellissimo. Per me e il mio compagno è stato davvero rilassante poter riposare nella camera di questo alloggio. Inoltre il servizio gratuito di Sento pubblico e la possibilità di utilizzare l'area cucina sono stati davvero indispensabili. Abbiamo apprezzato tanto la cura nei dettagli per far sentire gli ospiti accolti nel miglior modo possibile. Grazie! Speriamo di tornare presto a Kyoto e alloggiare di nuovo qui.”

“We had a wonderful stay during our Japan trip and truly appreciated. The location is excellent—set in a quiet area yet within walking distance of nearby landmarks, which made exploring very easy. It’s a great balance between convenience and relaxation. The staff were incredibly friendly and thoughtful, and there were no issues communicating in English. They even contacted us in advance to confirm our estimated arrival time, allowing us to drop off our luggage before check-in, which was very...

“The place is too small and cramped up but clean, no towel provided, need to pay extra to use the towel, and it was not indicated that the restroom/ bathroom is shared to the other tenants but it's ok for us since we just stayed 2 days. Walkable restaurants, convenient store, and walkable Shrine nearby. Train station is far so we need to ride taxi.”
