Very nice Royukan the sauna and hot bath were excellent and great for relaxing after a long and VERY cold day. Facility was a little beat up but probably because it’s been there for a while but it adds to its beauty. Could see the river from my room, had beautiful views of the mountain as well.

The only thing is the property is not very clean. But it is part of it being old and a little under maintaned. Otherwise a wonderful choice. I stayed 2 weeks ans went to Kyoto everyday without any issues. Fantastic! Will be back!

Beautiful location on the banks of the Uji River. The walks we took along the river with the lovely scenery and autumn leaves were truly memorable. Room was spacious, clean, comfortable and functional, and the balcony overlooking the river was wonderful. Really appreciate the hot bath after a cold day out. Location is near many places of attractions including the Byodoin Temple and shopping streets. Uji station is about 2km walk away. Would suggest posting heavy luggages to the hotel; we struggled with our luggage as we walked from Uji station to the hotel. Hotel staff were courteous and super helpful. They efficiently helped to post our luggages to our next hotel in Tokyo, arriving there the next day. Highly recommended.
