Ryuo Hotels

"This was our favorite hotel on our 10 day trip to Japan. The onsen was amazing, the massage chairs hit the spot when available, and we enjoyed the free coffee / ice cream / ramen daily. We did not add breakfast. The check in area can get hectic, but they had plenty of staff and things moved along nicely. Highly recommend!"

"Excellent "

"Located in Gion district, chic & super clean hotel with comfortable room, great dining options, & attentive staff."

"Great location, room design is the best with useful shelving, desk and table, and three chairs! Very comfortable and luxurious, highly recommended "

"The property was in a great area. Hard to find a bad area in Kyoto. It's a truly wonderful city. Our hotel room was quite small for my taste and not strong in amenities. But it was very clean and the staff as always in Japan were very respectful and friendly. Breakfast buffet was average but decent and clean. "

"Fantastic location within 10 minutes walk to Nishiki Market. Starbucks, 7/11 right across street. Hotel was quiet. Definitely would stay here again."

"This hotel is fantastic! There is a wide selection of breakfast options, all with fresh ingredients, and staff are polite and friendly. I really love the design of the lobby and hallways – it feels very Zen. The guest rooms are larger than typical Japanese hotel rooms. The onsen (hot spring) is also excellent – after your bath, there are free ice cream, drinks, and snacks available. There's also self-service laundry equipment. The hotel is very close to the subway station, located in a quiet neighborhood. It's just a 10–15 minute walk to the bustling Shijo shopping district and Takashimaya department store. Overall, it was a perfect experience. Highly recommended!"

" Very close to Kyoto station. Convenient "

"Good location but bad property. Rooms smaller than you think. "
