This ryokan was relatively close to all the main sites and was absolutely stunning (especially the garden) with the most relaxing bath options - the staff was incredibly hospitable and kind, cannot recommend enough
I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Toshiharu Ryokan. The location was close to so many restaurants, shops, and temples. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Take room was great and I loved the garden view. I recommend this location to anyone who is interested in experiencing a ryokan in Kyoto!

Beautiful traditional Japanese inn with a wonderful staff and great location. Lots of great amenities and especially enjoyed the onsen hot baths — a relaxing way to end our busy days of sightseeing.
The staff was wonderful and the property was beautiful! If you want to stay in a Ryokan I highly recommend this one for its central location and the rooms/facilities were super comfortable!
This was a lovely, beautiful place. Rooted in rich history its the best combination of modern and traditional Ryokan experience. Many upgrades but the rooms are so authentic. We loved staying here. The breakfast was delicious and made with love. Would stay here again.
A small and beautiful oasis in the middle of Kyoto
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome in this traditional Ryoken. We stayed just the one night and had a terrific and relaxing time here. Cannot recommend enough
This was a wonderful stay! close to all amenities and sights of Kyoto, but a quiet and calm restful stay; gracious and efficient staff whose care and attention was faultless.
This was an excellent experience and one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. The staff were very friendly and made us feel comfortable and the breakfast was incredible. Highly recommend and would like to visit again for longer!
We liked our stay so much. The staff were super patient and nice. They spent time introducing the room, the garden, the library and the bath rooms. Very accommodating and flexible. The bed is very comfortable and the view is gorgeous. Our breakfast at library is also a plus, really delicious and healthy.
The Toshiharu Ryokan was a great way to start our trip in Kyoto! It was a fun way to experience a traditional Japanese house and the staff was excellent. The bath was super relaxing and the Japanese traditional breakfast was delicious.
One of the best places I have ever stayed. Beautiful, comfortable accommodation with the most fantastic hosts who were so kind and thoughtful. We were so sad to leave!
Staying here was one of our favorite experiences in Japan. You feel like you are staying with a family. The ryokan is very clean and modern, the private onsen is incredible, and the breakfast is delicious. I would highly recommend staying here!!
We loved our stay. The service and experience was impeccable. Breakfast is a must and the most beautiful and delicious meal we’ve had in Japan. Would recommend and return every time we visit Kyoto! Thanks to the staff for an amazing stay!!
If you are wondering if the price tag is worth it… it absolutely is. We were incredibly lucky and fortunate to have experienced this beautiful heritage ryokan in the heart of Kyoto. The staff are wonderful, the attention to detail is exquisite, and the pride they put into making your experience perfect is exceptional. Our only regret is that we have to leave. We will never forget this. 1000/10 recommend!
