We enjoyed our stay at Rinn Shiki Juraku. The rooms were clean and very beautifully decorated. The breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. The staff was friendly and accommodating, particularly Riku who helped us fix a malfunctioning AC unit in our room. Overall it was an incredibly lovely experience and we would definitely come back.

I thought the environment and the staff were very friendly and cozy. It’s a short walk from any convenience store and Nishiki market is about a 15 to 20 minute walk. The onsen is definitely a plus after a long day of walking.

Beautiful property designed for a good refresh. So glad I stayed here and took advantage of the bath with a garden view. Staff was extremely helpful; my credit card got frauded and I had to get a replacement. The staff was extremely helpful in navigating the postal system for me. Quiet neighbourhood near the Imperial palace with beautiful parks and a nice break from the chaos of other tourist areas.

This place is beyond beautiful, but it just wasn’t for us. It’s beautiful and safe, but it’s more rustic than expected. The ground floor is cement, which has cracks where bugs get stuck on. We went in the peak of summer so there were lots of mosquitoes and spiders inside, and we had a small dead roach stuck on one of the cement cracks. The AC is upstairs and it’s capacity doesn’t cool the entire place, so it’s was still hot and humid in there, which made it uncomfortable. The smell of the humidity woth the wood makes a musty smell too which trigged allergies and just wasn’t super comfortable. Overall, this place is gorgeous and the staff is super nice, location is a bit further from central places, and this is a more rustic place, maybe not the best for peak summer time because of the bugs and heat. Appreciated the staff and the looks though!

This was the nicest hotel I think I've ever stayed in. The room was absolutely huge and felt so luxurious. It was in a nice location, close enough to central Kyoto but also far away enough for a nice and quiet break! Staff were lovely and helped with everything. I will definitely be staying here again when I'm in Kyoto!

The bath and living area face a lovely internal patio garden. Staff is very helpful and regularly puts out drinks and snacks in the common area. Easy walking distance to transit and many sites.

町屋をリノベーションしたスタイルのホテルで、一部屋が二階建て構造のためとても広々としていました。 基本設備も充実しており、暖房加湿器が両フロアに設置されているのは寒い時期にとてもありがたかったです。 丸田町通りからは北に少し歩きますが、堀川通りのバス停へのアクセスはとても良く、出掛け易いです。 また、ホテルスタッフの方々の雰囲気もよく、到着前のやり取り等でもお気遣いいただけ、大変助かりました。 是非周りにも勧め、自身もまた利用したいと思っています。
