I recently stayed at Kamogawa-kan Inn and had a generally pleasant experience. The highlight of the stay was undoubtedly the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was beautifully prepared and among the best I’ve had. The inn is clean and well-maintained, though the facilities do feel somewhat dated. While the futon provided an authentic touch, it was a bit too firm for my comfort. Overall, Kamogawa-kan offers a genuine traditional experience, and I would recommend it to those seeking cultural immersion with some minor considerations.

The staff were so kind and accommodating, and very attentive to all our questions and special requests, even helping with luggage delivery to our next hotel. We loved the traditional Japanese-style accommodations and onsen! The location is perfect for easy public transportation access and walkable to old Kyoto and the Gion district.

A humble Kyoto experience! Many local traditions were highlighted during our stay, from the traditional breakfast, futon bedding and friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed the hotel amenities, including the onsen. The hotel was located very close to the Nishiki market and shopping districts, as well as train and bus stops close to major attractions (eg Fushimi Inari). We recommend staying here for a true cultural experience in the heart of the action in Kyoto!

This is our first time staying at ryokan style hotel and we love this hotel. It is not the best looking interior (lobby and hallways) but the accommodation and experience will make your stay great. They even have a small sento at the basement for the guests. They offer breakfast but we didn’t have it because we usually leave before the breakfast was served. Other things we like is it is very close to public transportation, both bus and trains. Restaurants and convenient stores are just few steps away from the hotel. Few minutes walk to Nishiki Market and Kyoto Pontocho. Gion is a bit far if you walk but there is a bus that passes the hotel going there. The staffs are very friendly and courteous. If we are going back to Kyoto, we are definitely going to book this hotel again.

Perfect locations with a lot of shopping and dining options around. It’s right next to the river and metro. We can see river from the room so it was a nice bonus. Staff was super polite and friendly. The dinners were excellent and plentiful. There’s a drink place with good appetizer type of food 2 doors diwn that was very good, reasonable and convenient. Domo Arigato!

Traditional stay hotel, room was pretty big for Japan, but think I'm to old for Traditional stay, found beds very hard on the floor & getting up & down from the dinning table was a bit of effort.😊 Breakfast was very interesting, probably not for most kids, but we enjoyed it. Staff were very friendly, hotel was close to food, drinks, shopping & sightseeing, also close to metro. Definitely a once in a life time experience...

Awesome food experience

I stayed a night to trip a more traditional Japanese experience, this was very good. The staff were very friendly and very polite. I had the full dinner and breakfast which was by far the best part of my stay. It was great to dress in traditional style clothes for the meals. The futon bed however wasn’t something I would try again just not enough for sleeping on for a full night. Overall very much enjoyed my stay here if you stay definitely opt for the full meal options.

A delight!

This place was lovely. The location is great, the food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly. The beds are just straight up futons, so this should go without saying, but they were very firm — just something to be aware of if you need more comfort while traveling.
