Wonderful ryokan! Beautiful room, comfiest bed we had in Japan, great amenities (we even bought the robes!). Staff were so helpful and kind. Highly recommend staying here, it was such a great experience
United KingdomThe atmosphere at Auberge is one of a kind. Warm, friendly, caring - traditional yet modern at the same time. The young managers and staff was very sweet and professional and I would definitely recommend Auberge. Delicious and elegant breakfast serving. I recommend hiring bikes for getting around in the charming center of Kyoto. Easy, flat and joyful.
NorwayVery nice place with good taste and hospitable staff there. You can experience typical Japanese service. Nice breakfast. Very clean and beautiful.
ChinaAuberge AZABU is a family-run "hotel" near the Gojo Tube Station. The whole family is lovely and they will take good care of you. The location is convenient as it's just 2 min from Gojo Station (tube) and in 5 minutes you are at Kyoto Station. The hotel is very nice, architecture and furniture take probably inspiration from the traditional ryokans so you will have the feeling to sleep in a traditional Japanese house even if modernised. We slept on the futon bed and it was soooo comfortable (first time for me sleeping on a futon bed). We had the breakfast included and it was what we needed to start the day. I liked Kyoto and the place so much that I decided to stay an extra night so this is indicative of how comfortable it's been
United KingdomStaff were incredible. Going above and beyond to help you. The place was so tidy and clean. One of the best places we’ve stayed in Japan.
AustraliaEvery aspect of our stay was great but the hospitality of the hosts and staff is what truly stands out. The attention to every single details is also amazing and noticeable from the moment you step in.
