The property was aesthetically pleasing. The staff friendly and helpful
United States of AmericaAlways an amazing stay at Yuzuya Ryokan! The location is perfect, right in the heart of Gion, the food is exceptional (I highly recommend both breakfast and dinner). The Staff is extremely welcoming and the on-site sento bath is a great amenity after a long day of sight seeing. This spot is my go-to whenever I am in Kyoto.
United States of AmericaLovely Ryokan with a great location in Gion. Excellent service from Kanji-san and the entire team. Highly recommend the Keiseki dinner. And breakfast was such a delight - especially the Yuzu porridge. The ryokan is well maintained with nicely landscaped courtyard gardens and water features. Very charming place.
