Yadoya Kikokuso

The hosts here are delightful. The place is lovely and traditional. Loved my evening private baths after long days of walking. My only comment is if you need the toilet during the night ask if there is a downstairs room as that’s where it’s located.

Great great great!!! This ryokan is really wonderful! The owners are very nice and friendly. Clean and comfortable Japanese style room. Authentic property. Really recommended

The sweetest staff ever make you feel so welcomed and appreciated. I loved everything about my time here.

Séjour d’une nuit seulement On a eu la chambre avec la salle de bain privative Pas vraiment d’atout, très ordinaire. Faut plutôt réserver les chambres qui donnent sur le jardin et l’eau, même si la salle de bain est commune. Elles sont beaucoup plus typiques et agréables. Y a un couvre-feu à 23h. Très proche de la station de Kyoto Couple d’hôtes charmants et très accueillants Prix reste très cher pour l’offre.

非常に味わい深い老舗旅館。お部屋から小さな庭園と池の鯉を見ることができ、心休まるお宿でした。

Great owners, attentive service, and a gorgeous property brimming with culture.

The owners were so nice. A very beautiful traditional Japanese inn located very conveniently in the city.

Wonderful place to stay! The owners couldn’t be nicer and between the proximity to the station and the balance between traditional & modern, this was a perfect place to call home on our trip

Authentic Japanese accommodations with helpful owners that made it so pleasant. Best stay on our entire trip.

Perfect place for local, at home feel in a bustling city. We were looking for some serenity and tradition… exactly what we got.

Very friendly hosts

The owners were some of the most friendly, welcoming people I have met. Their English was great and I was able to understand them completely! The property is beautiful and a perfect option if you’re looking for a traditional stay. I would definitely stay again next time I’m in Kyoto.

Very good experience. Hosts are lovely, friendly and very very helpful. Will come back again.

If we could, we would've give the place 10 out of 5 stars!!! We planned to experience authentic Japanese hospitality and we received that and so much more! The owners are the most amazing people who made us feel at home (they'd say "welcome home" every time we came back from exploring Kyoto). The house is the most beautiful place we ever stayed at, and even though there were other guests staying, we felt we were the only ones with the friendliness and helpfulness of the owners. Every time we left the room, when we came back it was tidied up and fresh green tea was waiting for us on the table. Yes, there are rules the owners ask you to observe, but so every single hotel in the world has them (and these were made very clear before we booked and on arrival). It's a shame we only stayed 2 nights, as we could've stayed there for weeks. It was tranquil and beautiful. We were having Japanese style breakfast with a view of a stunning Japanese style garden and a pond with Koi fish. The room (apartment) we stayed in was spacious, comfortable, clean and really quiet. The ryokan is a short walk from Kyoto station, Schichijo station and in about 20 minutes you can walk to Gion. There are plenty of buses few minutes walk from Kikokuso as well. Thank you for making our stay such an amazing experience and for making us feel at home. We will definitely stay again, if we visit Japan in the future.

It was wonderful to be invited into your home and traditional way of life - thank you 🙏

Great stay - owners very nice

An absolute highlight of our Japan trip. I would highly recommend staying here. The rooms, the inn and the hosts were amazing. I’d also recommend getting breakfast for the full Japanese experience. Thank you so much for an amazing stay

We can’t say enough about how exceptional this experience was for us. The family that own and operate the ryokan were unbelievably friendly and felt so welcoming. Everything screamed traditional, from the kimonos we were given to wear during our stay, to the unique Japanese breakfast we were given every morning that was as delicious as it was healthy. If you are looking for a way to experience real japan, then look no further.

This place was freaking amazing! The owners were simply amazing, they were super attentive and always was so happy to see us. Book this if you want to stay in a traditional hotel. There is only 3 rooms here, and there is a beautiful pond in the middle of the hotel. Also, this place has been here for MANY years and through 3 generations. Book a breakfast and a dinner, and you wont be sorry. I will be back if I come back to Kyoto!

We had an amazing stay at Yadoya Kikokuso. The service provided was above and beyond and the location in Kyoko was very convenient.
