Really pretty ryokan, in a central location and within a couple of minutes from Kyoto station. The staff is very helpful and friendly and it was lovely to stay there. Thank you.
Ryokan Ginkaku offered a fantastic experience living in a traditional Japanese room but in a new building. It is very clean and spacious. We chose the wide room with private bath, which is very enjoyable. The traditional breakfast is fantastic (but for those who do not like fish for breakfast, perhaps better to skip this option). Locationwise, it is very close to Kyoto central station. Plenty of foods in the station Porta Dining. Close to bus stops too. Highly recommended.
This was my first time staying at a Ryokan and I was very pleasantly surprised. The renovated facilities are definitely worth the hype. Distance from Kyoto station is ideal and I suppose having a room with no balcony of a view was offset by it being very quiet. The onsen was great, much more private than I expected. The only minor issue was the understaffed reception at check out time. Other than that staff were great.
Das Ryokan hat eine gehobene Ausstattung, der Service ist wirklich gut.
Es ist fuĂlĂ€ufig vom Bahnhof erreichbar und liegt somit wirklich praktisch an den zentralen Bahn- und Busverbindungen.
Das FrĂŒhstĂŒck wird sehr traditionell vorbereitet, wenn man ein japanisches FrĂŒhstĂŒck nicht so mag, dann ist das evtl. Etwas ungĂŒnstig.
Beautiful Inn on a quiet Kyoto alley amongst izykaya and convenience shops central to walking to important areas of culture. Beautiful onsen healthy after a long day of walking. Aesthetics and architecture both classic and modern at the same time. Small gardens enhance experience.
Great new Ryokan in a great location. Only five minutes walk from the train station and easy access to other places you would want to visit in Kyoto. Japanese style beds were good. Staff excellent. Would definitely recommend
The hotel is really close to the Kyoko train station, very convenient to get to different places. Many great restaurants within walking distance. The hotel is very clean and quite. Staff are friendly and helpful. We would stay here again when we visit Kyoto next time.
