TANAKA-ya

傳統建築，晚間清靜，房間佈置有傳統特色，服務優良，旅館主動提供鄰近景點交通及注意事項，為旅程帶來不少方便

鄰近車站，吃飯搭車很方便，只隔幾個街口便是熱鬧的區域，衛生情況也很滿意，唯一不好的是洗澡限時，而且隔音不太好，但整體老板娘的服務也很稱心！

整體住宿環境非常用心與貼心, 日本老媽媽恰到好處的貼心服務讓你覺得有種很舒服的感覺! 地理位置到祉園或者清水寺都非常方便! 下次去京都一定會再來住這邊

民宿環境好有日本feel。 那天天氣很熱，老闆娘特意給我們兩支雪冰了的水，很貼心。 附近街道常見藝妓出入。

This was our favorite room in our two weeks in Japan. Kyoto was our last stop before coming back to the States, and we were exhausted. Our hostess greeted us with cool tea (it was VERY hot at this time, so this was wonderful), and showed us a map of the area. The area itself is gorgeous. If you're looking for the old Japan, here it is. Walking down the narrow alley was just too cool. My husband was worried that he wouldn't sleep well on the futon, but we were very comfortable for both nights. On our second night, our hostess brought us some seasonal fruit. Our view was nothing, and the hallway wasn't air-conditioned, but I have nothing but VERY pleasant memories of our stay in Kyoto. We are planning on returning to Kyoto after I finish my next degree, and we are probably going to be back in Tanaka-ya.

This is by far the nicest place we stayed. The owner is lovely, the area is amazing, and the rooms are nice.

Beautiful property in a more traditional style, very affordable and an excellent location! Highly recommended

Tamie is a lovely person and very kind. The check-in hours are a bit limited, but this is because of the nature of this ryokan (traditional style house). The walls are thin so you have to be careful not to be noisy and disrupt your neighbours. There's also one bathroom and shower that gets shared with others. It's not inconvenient and is a nice experience of a traditional Japanese house. The hotel is located in Gion, where you'll regularly see geisha going to work so keep your eyes open around dusk!

친구와 같이갔는데 매우 만족 그자체! 사실 이것저것 따지는 편은 아니라서 까다로운 사람들에게는 잘 모르겠지만 일본 전통 가옥을 느끼고 싶고 또 인심좋으신 주인분을 만나고 싶다면 적극추천! 진짜 저는 혼자 교토여행을 또 계획중인데 한번더 여기서 머물것같습니다 감사했습니다><**

The tatami room, the futon, my gracious hostess in her kimono, made me feel I was experiencing Kyoto as I wouldn’t have if I’d stayed in a generic hotel room. The location is amazing - I could easily walk or take the subway using a combination of the assistance of the Tourist Information personnel in the nearby subway station, and Google maps on my phone.

Seht schön ruhig und gute Lage. Ich kann dieses traditionelle Guesthouse wirklich empfehlen.

en plein coeur de Gion, tout petit hôtel familial, dans une maison traditionnelle, propriétaire très sympathique ( merci pour les fruits frais et le petit cadeau de départ) peut-être un peu loin du métro ... mais je suis fainéant ...

주인 아주머니께서 굉장히 친절하시고, 숙소가 번화가 근처라 이동하기 편리합니다. 또한 깔끔한 실내와, 일본의 고풍스러운 숙소를 원하신다면 추천합니다.

Really nice little Ryokan in a great area of Kyoto. Perfectly located, easy walk to metro and main shopping area. The Keihan line serves some of the main sights. Its a bit tricky to find at first but from Kyoto statation take: JR Nara Line to Tofukuji. Change to Keihan metro (note: if you have a JRPass, press the button at the gate and show it to the webcam) from Tofukuji to Gion-shijo . At Gion-shijo follow the signs to Ebisu shrine. This will take you to street level via very long corridor. When you get to the street turn right, then right again. This is a nice street to walk along to see Geishas, about 3/4 down (some way past the small painted Geisha statue) take the first left when you reach vending machines on the right, (there is a small little torii gate on the wall at kerb height), then right at the bottom. Tanaka-ya is located on the left. You can only see the sign from one direction. The lady is really friendly showed us a map of the area and good sights to see. She also left a little box of fruit for us. You do have to be quiet, but not too bad just more respectful than chain hotels. The shower is shared, I could only find 1 but it isn't "communal" as such. Its just one at a time with a lockable door. There were 2 toilets which wasn't an issue. The room was comfortable and warm/aircon. It also had a good WiFi connection. It felt homely and she welcomed you in to her home. If I went back to Kyoto I would stay here.

Excelent. Comfortable, convenient and with great hospitality.

This place is in the Gion District. Very close to the station but far enough to provide a quiet bedtime. Traditional Ryokan house. The owner resides on the first floor. Community bathroom is also on the first floor. It is clean and minimal toiletries are provided. Steep climb to second and third level. Each level has its own sink and toilet for community use. Take note that AC is only experienced in each quarter. It is not centralized ac which means the community area are very hot. Owner requested to turn off ac each time we leave our room for the day. Take note that when we were there in mid-July, Kyoto was experiencing record heat of 40C. So you can imagine the heat we had to endure while outside and when we came back, another wave of heat inside the Tanaka we had to bear and had to wait for the room to get cold since AC was turned off during daytime. Overall, this is the only "negative comment" i have of the place. Water for each guest is provided along with coffee mugs for hot/cold water from the fountain. The owner provided welcome tea and snacks and offered maps for the surrounding areas.

Accueil très chaleureux. La propriétaire offre des fruits aux clients. Ryokan en plein cœur d un quartier historique. Très vivement recommandé. Hélas pendant notre séjour l annexe du ryokan (située à 200 mètres de la partie principale) à brûler dans un feu de ce quartier historique. Cela fat du chagrin pour cette sympathique hôtesse et pour la disparition d une partie de ce quartier historique.

Het 140-jaar oude pand is met veel oog voor detail ingericht. Traditionele tatami-matten met futons, mooi bloemenbehang, bamboe... en alles lekker schoon. ‘s Nachts heerlijk geslapen, heen geluid op straat. De wijk is erg leuk: geregeld geisha’s gezien en er zijn veel kleine goede eettentjes.

The hotel located on a famous area, easy to go to all attractions. It is an older Japanese style building with thin plaster walls and older wooden floor. It is not sound prove. Any movement will be heard by next door.

Simple but nice ryukan. Run by lovely people who gave us gifts and helped during our stay. Excellent central location. Good for geisha spotting. As this is an old property and the walls are super thin consider ear plugs if a light sleeper...and maybe an eye mask (rooms v light)
