Gave attention to all the small details

The level of attention of their customer service by the staff to me and my girlfriend was amazing and in a way, heart warming. For example, they knew we liked to face the garden while eating so they setup the table that way. Another example is, they knew I loved boiled eggs so instead of asking every morning they prepared it for me. These little small attention to details and the kindness of the staff, the wonderful food, the beautiful scenery and amazing onsen made my trip unforgettable.

Very attending and courteous staff. The facility is ok but does its job of providing good lodging for guests. The place is good for English speakers as the staff are able to get their point across in English but it would be courteous to meet them in the middle and learn some useful Japanese phrases as well. Dinner and breakfast services were superb. The free shuttle service to and from the bus station was much appreciated.

A beautiful place to stay and experience a stay in a Ryokan and onsen. It is located just outside of Kyoto in Ohara so be prepared to take time to travel there from Kyoto station.

Good ryokan experience but not excellent

Ryokan had all basic amenities like AC, TV. Customer service was pretty good as the front desk guy made many efforts to answer our questions from time to time. We also got breakfast and dinner which was organized in a traditional fashion. Breakfast had a nice selection and we liked it, but the shabu shabu dinner wasn’t great with chicken being the only meat. As for the room itself it was traditional but we thought there would be something akin to tea ceremony. The onsen itself was comfortable with both indoor and outdoor and being able to experience both as they flipped men and women one in morning. It was convenient to have the hotel arrange a shuttle to the bus stop. The bus 17 from Kyoto station to Ohara is pretty convenient and runs frequently. The town of ohara nearby gives a taste of rural Japan and is a nice experience to walk through. Overall it’s a good experience but next time for onsen I’d prefer being in outdoors in Nikko than repeat stay here. The entrance with pond full of koi, tannuki was very sweet me a nice site we could see from our window.

New and nice.

This is where you relax. Lovely nature, food and onsen. Rooms are clean and brand new, staff speaks English and is very helpful. Remember to call for a pickup at the bus station- there is a payphone. The best lunch/cakes can be found at the small and very cool french/japanese bistro near the bus station on the small walkway in the rice fields.

Perfect place If you like doing housework.

You need to prepare your own bed at night. Before you can spread out the tatami. You need to rearrange the room by moving the table to the side. No one will help you with the bedding or making your bed.

Authentic Japanese raykan with nice hot spring

The inn is up at the mountain in the midst of beautiful scenery, and at the source of Hot Springs. The two meals provided are plentiful and tasty. The dinner is a hot pot, while the breakfast is a traditional Japanese breakfast. It has both indoor and outdoor Hot Springs.

A great Ryokan experience away from the city

A great Ryokan experience away from the city. The staff were friendly and helpful. Appreciated that we were provided with different set meals during our 3 day stay. Shuttle service was provided to and fro between the Ryokan and Ohara bus station at a moment's notice. Ohara is located 1 hour away from Kyoto station. Thus, travelling takes up a lot of our time and we have to leave for Ohara by 5.30 pm to make it back for Dinner. Thus, the Ryokan is good for those who don't mind the additional travel time and transport cost.

American couple in Japan

If you're looking for an authentic Japanese experience with good food and gracious hosts, look no further. The Ryokan was tucked away in the mountains of Ohara and miles from the bright lights of Kyoto. We were the only Americans present during our stay and made it a point of emphasis to respect the locals and hosts alike. Our quest for solitude after the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and Osaka was fulfilled upon reaching Yumoto Onsen.

A reasonably price ryokan in the countryside.

Good experience for a stay in an Onsen with outdoor and indoor hot spring tubs. It can be reached by taxi from Kyoto for about 50,000 Yen, or much cheaper by bus. The drive is scenic and provides a nice view of the country side. The walk from the Onsen to the Sanzen Temple is very pleasant and scenic, and you are not surrounded by the usual crowds found in Kyoto. The Ohara Riverside Cafe near the hotel is a very nice place to have a good latte and snack. We've paid a lot more for a higher end Ryokan hotel in Gion where the food is much elaborate and service is much better. But this one offers a good experience for a much more reasonable price.

Lovely stay at a beautiful minshuku in Ohara

The staff were very friendly and kind. The accommodations were very comfortable, the onsen was absolutely wonderful, the water felt very silky and smooth with minerals. Ohara is absolutely beautiful, even though it rained one of the days we were there (ew) the scenery was still breathtaking. My mom enjoyed it so much she started looking into buying a house in the area. The only (very minor) complaint was that the dinner felt somewhat simple for the cost, however, it makes sense since it's in a more remote area where supplies are more difficult to acquire. The foot bath near the inn was absolutely adorable and incredibly relaxing. Highly recommend!
