Amazing breakfast, beautiful premises and the most helpful, kind staff. Wish I could have stayed longer! Will definitely visit again.

“Peaceful, lovely stay - the staff were exceptional!”

The breakfast was 10/10!!! Was a delicious traditional feast - super fresh ingredients The room (Tsuki) was lovely and spacious - it was a warm and peaceful environment to stay in We tried both onsens and they were AWESOME. Wish we could have stayed longer :)

“An amazing experience and a warm welcome.”

Beautiful historic ryokan with an atmospheric central garden. Very helpful and pleasant staff explained the history of the place and the logistics of our stay.

“Friendly Ryokan experience in central Kyoto”

Delicious breakfast Super friendly and welcoming hosts Proper Ryokan experience Great location

“Fantastic hotel at an excellent location away from the crowds.”

Such a lovely boutique hotel with very attentive staff. We stayed in the apartment, which has a shower, which suited us well as we like to get up early and start exploring. The hotel is in a great location for transport and an array of fine eateries nearby. Make sure you book a table, as many require this in Kyoto.

“A wonderful and unique Japanese experience 🇯🇵”

We had a wonderful time staying at Toshiharu Ryokan during our trip to Kyoto. The staff are organised and extremely friendly, who went out of their way to ensure you were comfortable and enjoyed your stay. It is a unique offering for anyone looking to have a real Ryokan experience. A traditional style breakfast can be included which is a must try. My taste buds are sensitive to seafood early in the morning, but they very kindly offered to change it to a different meat without any hassle. We would highly recommend this location. * The location is also extremely clean.

“Memorable experience in Kyoto”

Everything, from the warm welcome to the accommodation itself - bathroom and breakfast were amazing. A perfect stay which made our visit to Kyoto very special.

“A deeply authentic and beautifully hosted ryokan was the perfect, memorable way to end our trip”

What a truly special evening in this historic place. Throughout the rest of our Japan trip we stayed in standard (very small!) hotels, so we wanted to end our journey with an authentic Japanese experience - and this absolutely delivered, exceeding our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome by our wonderful host, who greeted us as if we were entering her own home. She showed us around the space, explained everything with care, and welcomed us with a delicious cup of tea. Sitting at the traditional low table with our feet tucked underneath was a memorable experience (and mildly entertaining watching my very tall partner attempt to get out!). When we returned from dinner, the room had been beautifully transformed, with the futons laid out and ready for the night. Sleeping on them was surprisingly comfortable, and the room itself felt cosy, calm, and genuinely special. The property is stunning. Our room opened directly onto a private courtyard garden, which was magical even in winter ...I can only imagine how beautiful it would be in warmer months. We also used the onsen baths twice; the smell of the natural wood was divine and incredibly relaxing. Such a treat to be in the private facility. Although we were unfortunately unwell during our stay and worried we may have disturbed others, we were treated with nothing but kindness and understanding, which made the experience even more meaningful to us. We also ordered the traditional Japanese breakfast, served in the dining room. It was beautifully presented and very authentic...a style of meal we hadn’t experienced eating out around Kyoto. We truly cannot recommend this stay highly enough. Our only regret is not staying longer to fully relax and enjoy everything this beautiful place has to offer.

“Exceptional.”

“Loved every moment would definitely go back. They looked after us so well and the place was simply beautiful”

Very cool, old historical vibe but clean and organised

“Authentic & private”

Absolute highlight of our months in Japan. The authenticity of the ryokan and the privacy even though it was full was beautifully managed by the staff. The tatami room, the authentic breakfast and the polite staff were brilliant mid we go to Kyoto again we will stay there
