I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Toshiharu Ryokan. The location was close to so many restaurants, shops, and temples. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Take room was great and I loved the garden view. I recommend this location to anyone who is interested in experiencing a ryokan in Kyoto!

If you are wondering if the price tag is worth it… it absolutely is. We were incredibly lucky and fortunate to have experienced this beautiful heritage ryokan in the heart of Kyoto. The staff are wonderful, the attention to detail is exquisite, and the pride they put into making your experience perfect is exceptional. Our only regret is that we have to leave. We will never forget this. 1000/10 recommend!

We liked our stay so much. The staff were super patient and nice. They spent time introducing the room, the garden, the library and the bath rooms. Very accommodating and flexible. The bed is very comfortable and the view is gorgeous. Our breakfast at library is also a plus, really delicious and healthy.

Proceed with caution.

Where do I begin! Firstly the staff were wonderful and very kind, but this is where the positives end. I guess if you are seeking a traditional Japanese experience then this maybe worth considering although the price seems disproportionately high given the quality of the room and facilities. The main issue I had was the stairs in my room to ge from the living room to the bedroom, which are a problem if you have any mobility issues and it could be argued they are a border line Heath and Safety risk. I could not see any photos of the stairs for my room in the Hotel.com website and felt there should have been some kind of warning well in advance of the booking re this room giving us the option to cancel. We were forced to checkout after the first night of our 3 night stay because of this issue and pay for another hotel. The owners refused to provide any form of compensation in the way of a refund despite numerous request. I await Hotel.com response to this issue.

This is an elegantly appointed Ryokan in the style of old Japan, yet it has all modern conveniences and amenities. It is an architectural beauty, with magnificent gardens and artistic and authentic interior decor as well. But the best feature is the staff of kind, efficient and friendly people who are committed to making your stay memorable. Arigato Gozaimasu! This was an extraordinary and magical experience, not to be missed!
