This was an amazing place! We had never stayed in a Royal con before, and very glad we chose this location. The owners were extremely friendly, and the room was very comfortable. We enjoyed the traditional breakfast, and access to the public bath (a must try experience). I highly recommend this hotel.!

It was so nice. I went with 4 of my friends (5 including me). The place wasn’t so big, pretty small inn. The old man and old lady welcomed us extremely kindly and were engaging in conversations. They try their very best speaking English so they can appeal to the foreigners and I thought that was very nice. The public bath was also small, but was well taken care of, I had a nice bath and well rested sleep. Inside the rooms we were provided with Yukata, very comfortable to sleep in. They even offer snacks as a freebie on the table inside the room. Next to the Nishiki Market. Overall, such an amazing place. I would definitely book again if I ever go back to Kyoto!

It was my first time in Japan, so Kyo-no-Yado Kagihei was my very first ryokan experience. I stayed for a few days and loved every moment of it. The Japanese style room was very comfortable and cozy. I appreciated the daily restock of tea, cookies, and bottled drinks. The property is located in a very convenient location as I was able to go sightseeing, shop, and even just wander around Kyoto to appreciate the slow vibe. Tomo and Yuko, the owners of the ryokan, were so sweet and kind to me. I felt so welcomed and at home. The entire staff is just as gentle and considerate. Highly recommend this property. I already miss everyone (and the Japanese breakfast!).

We had an excellent 3 night stay at Ryokan Kagihei. Yuko and the staff were friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Their english is great, too. Our room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. We had the set breakfast and it was delicious, It is definitely worth adding! It is located in a quiet street and just around the corner is the bustling Nishiki market. A little further are the general stores, shopping area and public transportation. You can’t go wrong with this Ryokan! We hope to return on our next trip to Kyoto.

This ryokan exceeded our expectations in so many ways! Rooms are pretty large, shower is separated from toilet and sink so it made it easier for me and my daughter to get ready and go about our daily routine. Location couldn’t be better. Two blocks away from the famous by Nishiki market, 10-15 minutes away from Kyoto station and walking distance to restaurants, bars, shopping and anything else you can think of. Great location to explore the city and it’s temples (not walking distance but easy to access if you buy hop-on/hop-off tickets since there’s a stop a few blocks away from the hotel. The owners run the hotel so we saw them first thing in the morning, when getting breakfast, and at night, when we returned to the hotel. Breakfast here is a HUGE highlight, but you need to be willing and looking forward to experiencing a genuine Japanese breakfast, sometimes with flavors you never tasted before. It is majestically served in a private room, so the moment we walked in, the table was served and ready for us. I definitely recommend this hotel and I’ll book my stay here whenever we go back to Kyoto.

Best place to stay in Kyoto!

Can’t recommend this place enough! Everything was fantastic, we stayed for 2 nights and absolutely loved it! They provided us with Yukata to wear inside the property, they were warm and really elevated the traditional Japanese Ryokan experience! We also had the breakfast and I definitely recommend it, I’m not much of a breakfast person and I tend not to eat when I go sightseeing, so it was the perfect set up to have a proper meal to start the day and it kept me full for a long time. The hostess was also incredibly kind, so nice and helpful with suggestions and information, and it’s actually her home as well! The place was absolutely beautiful, it’s clear they put a ton of work into it and was such a nice relaxing atmosphere after running around everywhere all day! The location itself is great, you’re right next to Nishiki market and the main shopping street in Kyoto, so bus stops aren’t that far either, maybe a 5-10 min walk? Even though it’s near some of the most popular shopping, the neighborhood itself is very quiet and the noise tends to stay within the market itself. If you’re looking for a traditional Japanese inn I can’t recommend staying here enough, the futons were very comfortable and the deep bathtub was an absolute delight!

Très bon accueil par les hôtes qui habitent l’immeuble. Ils parlent très bien anglais. L’emplacement est excellent pour le shopping et les restaurants. On peut se déplacer dans plusieurs lignes de train ou de bus dans un rayon de 10min de marche. On a essayé le bain qui est petit, mais très bien. Le déjeuner offert est copieux. Je le recommande pour ceux qui désirent vivre l’expérience Ryocan.

This property, the owners and the staff were all wonderful. Try the traditional breakfast, it is a must do. The property is charming, the size of the room is a great value and everything is clean and orderly. The location is superior, close to Nishiki Market, high end shopping and only about a 10 minute walk to public transportation. Many good food choices close by from small authentic restaurants to the many food stalls in Nishiki Market Taxis as very reasonable in Kyoto, so feel free to use them if you don’t wish to walk This property is highly recommended.

Peaceful small garden near breakfast table

Comfortable Ryokan in Kyoto

Very friendly and sweet couple running the ryokan. The made you feel like you were home. The ryokan was very clean and the rooms were spacious. We appreciated the private bathroom and also used the public bath. They provided hot water and tea along with wonderful cookies. We really like the location which was adjacent to Nishiki Market. We would definitely stay here again.
