禿庵

この度はお世話になり、どうもありがとうございました。 仕事のための宿泊でしたが、色んなお話をして下さったり仕事に関しても勇気づけて下さり、とても暖かな気持ちになれました。素泊まりの予約でしたが、食事に関してもご配慮下さり、本当にありがたかったです。どうもありがとうございました。京都のしっかりした母のような女将さんと、優しい親戚の叔父さんのようなご主人様で素敵でした。

京都滞在時はここ以外に選択肢はありません！いつも温かく迎えて頂き素晴らしいホスピタリティに感謝です。お風呂もリニューアルされて、快適です！

Only 5mins walk from Kiyomizu area and close to Yasaka-jinja or Gion. You must try to early-bird walking around this area, you will see different scene of Kyoto.

Small ryokan run by a very friendly older couple. Clean spacious room close to Kyomizu-dera with plenty of shopping, dining and transportation nearby.

Simply amazing Ryokan experience! There are no words to fully describe my appreciation to Kamuro An experience & Okami, the host. My expectation of wanting a ryokan experience were beyond met. I have stayed at many nice hotels but this was better than anything I ever had. The host's dedication to show her guests Japanese traditions and cuisine is commendable, lot of hard work behind. Kamuro An is also located at a very prime location, steps away from Kyoto’s popular Kiyomizu-Dera temple & Gion/Geiko neighborhood. I walked to all the prime areas of Kyoto from Kamuro An. Okami specially made a vegetarian friendly breakfast for me which is the best meal of my entire trip in Japan.

Super friendly host, very clean .‌exactly as was described. Location is great

"Softly, morning light Fell upon my resting face At Kamuro-an." I could only stay in Kyoto for two nights, but I was most satisfied with my time at Kamuro-an. I wanted a feeling of what it was like to live in a Japanese home, and that's what I found: a place that felt like home. Ookami-san and Danna-sama made a tired traveler feel welcomed. Their local knowledge was extremely helpful, and their gentle guidance was most appreciated. The house itself is beautiful; clean and in good repair. My room was spacious, and had everything I needed. The neighborhood was quiet and easy to walk around. You will not find a better location in Kyoto, just minutes away from the temples, shrines, parks and shops of Higashiyama and Gion. Bring your good walking shoes! The food! I can still remember how fresh, interesting and delicious the breakfasts tasted. Breakfast with good conversation is always satisfying. I learned so much about Kyoto culture. I will always carry with me the sense of peace and genuine kindness I felt as their guest. Even when Ookami-san laughed, trying to find a yukata to fit my big body, and then had to watch my bad dancing! (^_^) When you are a traveler, a place to truly rest is beyond price; A hot bath is salvation. A soft futon is Heaven. In an age when so many tourists are rushing around, faces down in their cell phones, it's good to know that places like Kamuro-an still exist. Ookini, Ookami-san! *waves*

Our stay at Kamuro An was exceptional!! The futon beds were really comfortable and the room super clean and spacy. The host was really kind and introduced us to many aspects of Japanese home and guest culture. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. We even received Onigiris to bring on our excursions to the many sights of Kyoto. A stay at Kamuro An is highly recommended for anyone who is looking to really get in touch with Japanese culture on their journey!

Authentic Japanese stay. Highly recommend for those who want to experience Japanese culture via homestay. Host was very nice. Various house rules applied, if you’re more of a free style person, house rules could be a bit much as there are curfews and other rules at home. If that doesn’t bother you, I would definitely recommend!

I could write a lot about Kamuroan but I'll keep it short! Okami-san runs a wonderful ryokan. As a guest you will feel comfortable & welcomed. The rooms are lovely, the food is amazing and the hospitality is fantastic. It's also in such a lovely location in Gion, allowing early morning & late evening walks when it isn't swarming with tourists which I definitely recommend doing if you stay here. Staying here just feels like being invited into Okami-san's wonderful home for a night or two. If you are looking for something a bit out of the norm of regular commercial hotels in the area I can't recommend staying here enough, you won't regret it. Okini!

Der Aufenthalt bei Okami-san war einfach wundervoll. Während des Aufenthalts zeigt sie wie man traditionelle Yukata trägt und Matcha zubereitet - auch auf schwierige Essenswünsche, wegen Allergie, geht sie ganz ein und das Essen schmeckt dabei zauberhaft. Auch das japanische Bad war nach langen Erkundungstouren im Ryokan entspannend und tat richtig gut. Okami-san ist während des Aufenthalts wie eine japanische Mutter - man wird umsorgt und bekommt einen tollen Einblick in die japanische Kultur! Wenn wir das nächste Mal in Kyoto sind, dann werden wir definitiv wieder hier übernachten, da es einer der Highlights des Trips gewesen ist! Okini 🙏

Our family of four had a wonderful stay at Kamuro An. Our downstairs room was large, with space for four futons, a separate sitting area, and a sink/dressing room. The toilet, shower and bath were down the hall, which did not bother us at all. From Kamuro An, we could walk to Kiyomizu Dera temple, Gion and more sights on the east side of Kyoto. Best of all was the hospitality. Okami-san was so warm and kind, and she enjoyed teaching us about Japanese customs. Her breakfasts were beautiful and delicious. I had a Japanese grandmother to feed me when I was young, and it was fun to see my children enjoy some of the same foods that I loved as a child. Thank you so much for helping us make new family memories in your lovely home in Japan!

Staying at Kamuroan was like visiting extended family that make you feel at home. The Okami-san (female manager of a ryokan) is super welcoming and thoughtful about giving her guests a wonderful stay. She's passionate about hosting as well as sharing Japanese culture through her traditional home, delicious breakfasts, fun conversations, and more. At the same time, she also does a great job giving guests their own space to experience and discover Kyoto for themselves. Kamuroan was the most comfortable stay in my 2 weeks hopping around Japan for the first time (including expensive hotels and other guesthouses/bnbs) and a top highlight of my trip to Kyoto. It's in a great neighborhood--walkable to temples, shops, and restaurants--while still being quiet and calm. The high ratings and positive reviews are well-deserved. Less than 3 weeks later, I already want to go back. Ookini, Okami-san!

This was an incredible experience. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Kamuro An was fantastic. I was taken care of and loved my experience here. Make sure to ask for a traditional Japanese breakfast or maybe some onigiri or homemade udon. I recommend this place wholeheartedly. It was genuinely fantastic!

I stayed at Kamuroan for 5 nights at the end of a 3-week trip. In terms of accommodation, this was the definitive highlight of my time in Japan. I still can't quite believe how amazing this guest house is. The owners are incredibly friendly and truly committed to making one's stay here the best experience possible. They also give great tips and recommendations for sightseeing and travel in Kyoto. The house itself is beautiful and perfectly clean at all times, the room I had as a solo traveller was very spacious and comfortable. If you are looking for a traditional japanese living experience, it doesn't get much better than this. The breakfast cooked by the hostess easily surpassed most of the restaurants I had tried during my trip and it comes with the hospitality and warmth of a family meal. I even got to try making traditional matcha tea! Generally, the experience is much closer to a homestay than a hotel, with the lovely Okamisan greeting you whenever you come back from touring the city and always ready to help out. Additionally, Kamuroan is located right in the middle of the Higashiyama district, basically around the corner from Sannenzaka, putting some of the most popular tourist attractions easily within walking distance. For such a premium location you'd pay loads extra at any regular hotel. The thoroughly perfect reviews for this place are more than deserved. I hope that I can come back soon! おおきに、女将さん!

Very nice hosts and room The breakfasts were delicious They gave me recommandations of places to visit in Kyoto The room was perfect

The Okami-san so sweet! She wanted to make sure we had the best stay. We arrived to Kyoto early and was able to communicate to her of our arrival. She was willing to let us drop of our bags, go for a stroll around the neighborhood and come back to check in early. She was very attentive but also allowed us to have our space. Her property is lovely and clean and really makes you feel like you have an authentic Japanese type stay. She has signs everywhere to show you how to do things or learn about Japanese culture. Loved the experience, would highly recommend if you’re looking for something outside of your typical hotel. Looking forward to another visit

Fantastic place to stay in Kyoto! You feel like you are in a traditional Japanese home. There are two rooms. We stayed in the downstairs room which can easily accommodate 4 people. The place is extraordinarily clean and comfortable. The hosts are among the nicest people you will meet and make your stay unique and wonderful. It is within walking distance of many of the attractions in Kyoto. Be sure to get the traditional Japanese breakfast at least one morning too. This is a must do Japanese experience.

I had an amazing time at Okai.San's ryokan. First, she is super nice and sweet. I am already missing her super fresh, yummy, and elaborate breakfast. I love matcha tea so much!- and Okami-San made me one after breakfast. She understand and speak some English and also was able to answer my questions about places I wanted to visit, and she gave me tips. She was also very nice to my Japanese friend. I told her I want to go back to Kyoto and stay again on her property. Thanks, Okami-San! I am back home now. Best, Dr. B. Cypress
