This was an absolutely lovely traditional Japanese hotel property. Everything about our stay was perfect, from the pre-stay communication, the check-in experience, the facilities, the meals, and the assistance from the staff. And the bathroom in our room - heavenly! I cannot adequately express what a wonderful little oasis this little Ryokan is. Well done!

Me and my wife just recently got married and we chose to travel to Kyoto as our first trip in Japan together! We couldn’t have asked for better host or a better location for our experience. The room was amazing and easily worth the price. 10/10!

A lovely, serene hotel tucked away within the gion neighborhood of Kyoto. Great shower/bath, comfortable Japanese-style beds. We opted for the in-room breakfast one morning and it was equally as wonderful as the hotel overall.

Truly one of the best stays of all my travels. It was personalised to every detail, from the moment we entered as we got to chose our welcome drink to the luggage delivery service with extra attention in the end. The location was precious, very historical and quite private, while the amenities were unexpectedly very modern. The staff were beyond adorable and extremely helpful; Shinyi and Sae are very caring and we already miss them! Having the breakfast served in the room was also great. This place felt like a home away from home. We can’t wait to come back.

Our stay at ishebekoji MUAN was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. They were genuinely kind, attentive, and eager to help. They went above and beyond, offering delicious (and less touristy) restaurant recommendations and ensuring every part of our stay was seamless. The hotel itself is tucked away on one of Kyoto’s most private and picturesque walking streets, lined with traditional inns and beautiful old structures. It feels like stepping into another world, quiet, elegant, and deeply rooted in tradition. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with high-quality amenities and a traditional bathtub. The in-room Japanese breakfast was an unforgettable highlight, beautifully prepared, seasonal, and unlike anything we’ve experienced elsewhere. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else in Kyoto. This is a truly exceptional boutique hotel that captures the essence of Japanese hospitality. Highly recommended.

We had an incredible experience at this beautiful ryokan: private, serene & calm: the kind of Kyoto experience we were hoping for. The futons/pillows/linens were very comfortable, & the bathroom was beautiful. The room was filled with thoughtful amenities: green tea, Nespresso pods, rice crackers, soaking salts for the bath, etc. The staff took such good care of us & made us feel so cared for. They helped us with dinner reservations, made wonderful recommendations for meals & bars, & accepted our luggage for an early arrival - all of which helped to make our stay stress-free. We had the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was delicious. We recommend this hotel without reserve & can't wait to come back.
