Absolutely stay here when in Kyoto. This was our favorite hotel on our trip to Japan. It is an authentic experience. Dinner and breakfast were great (though they may be tough for a picky eater). But most importantly, the staff was amazing. We have never felt more welcomed by a hotel. They became our friends. We will be back!

Incredible stay in Kyoto

Great stay. The hostesses treat all of their guests like family and the food is amazing. This isn't just lodging; it's a life experience and a cultural immersion opportunity. So glad that we stayed here instead of a standard hotel. The place is also very centrally located.

The best Ryokan we have ever stayed and we have stayed in quite a few in the past 20 years. The service is beyond! The day when we arrived and we were recommended to visit the nearby Buddhist temp but it was about to close. The ryokan lady jumped into her car and drove us there. We were able to see the Magnificent 1001 buddha statues. The dinner was food art, fresh, seasonal with amazing taste, it definitely was a memorable experience. The facility was clean, authentic with all the modern day comforts. Staff takes proud in making all the guests feel welcome. Service was first rate. I couldn’t compliment enough

This property was definitely amongst the best ive been to. The staff made sure to accomodate for all the guests needs and assist in creating a perfect itinerary for the travelers. Staying at this inn feels like home, but keep in mind that they lock the front door at 12am. Otherwise a perfect place to rest between adventures.

This was such a delightful stay. The team was incredibly friendly and the service was warm and genuine. Breakfast was tremendously intricate and beautiful...and different everyday. We're not used to Japanese for breakfast so probably should have just ordered for 1 day. Nonetheless, everyday was a different gastronomical experience. Location is very convenient to Kyoto station. It's a bit noisy as it is on the main road...but the chimes from the temple across the road early in the morning was so calming that traffic noise doesn't bother anymore. Loved every moment spent at the property. 4 of us comfortably stayed in the room with private bath. Highly recommend.

Booked a room for 1-4 people which I assumed would accommodate 4 people, but when we arrived they informed us that we had to pay additional for 2 people for a total of 4. It was another $425 and with city tax was close to $900 usd for a one night stay which was a rip off, definitely not worh it for a 2 star hotel. Would not recoomend and felt they take advantage of tourist families.

This is the absolute best place to stay ever! If you're looking for a ryokan or any type of accommodation in Kyoto, stay here! The best part is the staff. They are some of the friendliest people we've ever met and were so helpful, happy and cheerful. They are also so passionate about their ryokan and their beautiful city! When we were having trouble getting to Fushimi Inari Taisha because of a road closure, one of the staff even drove us all the way there! The rooms are very traditional and spacious with modern comforts (such as AC and a modern bathroom). They even lent us yukatas with many colours to choose from. The baths are traditional and clean with great amenities. The staff also let my wife use the baths even though she has tattoos. The location is also fantastic (right across the street from Higashi Hongan-ji temple and 1 block from Shosei-en Garden) and there is plenty of delicious food and beautiful sights within walking distance! It is also super close to Kyoto station and other buses and trains! We strongly recommend staying here!

The American poet Maya Angelou said, “People will forget what you said, forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” We will never forget the staff at Hokkaikan Ohanabo because they made us feel as though we were the most honored guests they had ever received. From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us with hospitality we have never experienced anywhere else. They enthusiastically greeted us, helped us remove our shoes, carried our bags to our room, showed us the inn, and offered to help us with anything needed. They washed our dirty laundry (for a minimal fee) and arranged for in-room massages for my wife and me. Any mistakes we made—fumbling with our poor Japanese language skills, dribbling water on the tatami mats, coming late to breakfast—were graciously overlooked. The traditional Japanese breakfast was worthy of a Michelin star rating. Items we never would have ordered for ourself were—without exception—delicious. When we finished breakfast, staff insisted we relax in the lobby with coffee that they brought us. We looked at photos of each other’s families on our phones and snapped photos with each other. The okami of the ryokan, Ayako, helped us plot out our next four days of sightseeing on a Kyoto map, and then not only arranged for our luggage to be delivered to our next hotel, but also gave us an impromptu tour of the town in her personal van before dropping us at our first stop of the day. Five stars is not a high enough rating!!

Truly a special place to stay in Kyoto. I have traveled all over the world and the staff here were among the friendliest and most welcoming I have ever experienced. The breakfast is highly recommended as well. The rooms are large, quiet and traditional Japanese. We stayed during the summer when it was vey warm and the AC was excellent. If you can get a reservation here- book it! Outstanding experience to stay in traditional Japanese hotel.
