The host is very supportive. Location is very good, just 10min walk to the famous Kiyomizu temple along the beautiful old street.
VietnamThe Ryokan was a beautiful traditional style place to stay, in a great location to the old town and good transport links. The hostess, Emi, was incredibly helpful and welcoming. We would highly recommend staying here.
United KingdomThis is a very unique small riokan close to one of the great temples of Kyoto. The room was lovely, the place was clean and the hosts, Amy and Hiro are exceptionally friendly and kind. I would definitely stay here again it was a wonderful experience and felt more like staying with family than staying in a hotel!
CanadaDecent location for the price - walking distance to some shrines, bus stop at bottom of hill for many other connections, plus not too far from train station either. Very cute room. Good laundry service. Lots of thoughtful touches e.g. water cooler and mouthwash are provided. Spacious rooms (if only 1 or 2 people!).
United KingdomLocation is great and the landlady a wonderfully warmheated person with lots of tips on what to do. much Space in my room and good fresh air thanks to a clever Window. thank You for a wonderful Time. 😊
GermanyOwner Eimi and Hiro is a friendly couple who are so thoughtful and helpful. Personal attention to allow me to check in early as I had arrived upset due to a cab driver who gave me the roundabout doubling my fare. Moreover, after a nap I found a note from Eimi and Hiro who had sent me strawberries to cheer me up!
SingaporeExcelent area, very close to Kyomizu-Dera. The owners are lovely people and speak English very well.
BelgiumWe loved Hanakiya and everything about our amazing time there! Hanakiya was the best choice we made for our Kyoto trip. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful and the room and facilities were great! We also got a plate of fruits on the first evening. We appreciated it! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
JapanThe hosts are so friendly and helpful. They gave us a new year's present of delicious fresh fruit and year of the pig chocolates. The beds were very comfortable. The shower was large and had decent pressure. The toiletries in the bathroom and the free tea and coffee were nice touches. The location was just perfect - close to Kiyomizu-dera temple and other attractions, and close to a bus stop and subway station.
South KoreaI couldn't recommend it more. Hanakiya is run by a super nice and friendly family. We got breakfast for free because it was our second time, and Halloween sweets as a surprise. The location is fantastic, very close to Kiyomizu-dera temple but quiet at the same time. We got recommendations to join a local kabuki event we couldn't have found otherwise. The staff speaks English very well and they were always available for anything.
