Excellent location. Everyone at the hotel were very friendly and were very willing to help in any way. Breakfast was an excellent Japanese style served in the room. Will definitely be back when i come to Koyoto.
At the behest of a friend, I checked our family into a ryokan (traditional inn) for our maiden trip to Kyoto. The Japanese hospitality of the staff, traditional breakfast every morning (server to your room), your beds made daily and sleeping on the mattresses on tatami flooring and public bath are good experience.
Love the spread of in room breakfast , it was delicious and beautifully presented
Bed not as comfortable, but we were the one who opted for traditional Japanese style bed
Got a room w private bath , but it’s really small
Have to praise all the hotel Ryokan staffs for being efficient and accommodative on our request , and in mourning for breakfast , they are extremely prompt
Location was great, walkable to close by attractions
We loved the Ryokan Kohro! From the moment we arrived the staff was warm and welcoming, our room very comfortable, and the set Japanese breakfast each morning was delicious…the best part was the cedar bath/onsen which we used each night. We will definitely be back!
Amazing ryokan stay in the heart of Kyoto; there’s a public bath you can try which is traditional and fun way to shower / bathe. When you check in they pour you tea and give you traditional sweet; they then go through breakfast times; breakfast in the room is amazing and must try. The set up of the beds was also done seamlessly and everyone was super courteous and polite - thank you for a great stay!
The staff was so friendly, and the woman who showed us to our room did a great job explaining what makes the ryokan special. We paid for breakfast, and the spread they set up in our room each morning was stunning -- it was so fun to try different foods each morning. We also really enjoyed the public bath in the basement -- very relaxing and clean. The location is also great: very close to a train station, and there's lots of great shopping and eating in walking distance.
A good price for a Ryokan!
Can get breakfast in the room.
Nearby Nishiki Market.
Neighbourhood of this Ryokan has stylish boutiques and cafes.
The public bath could have been hotter, but other than that all good.

A bit out of the way. Property was a bit run down. Staff was super nice though.
Simply awesome. Located in the central Kyoto area, 3-10 minutes walking to subway stations and shopping centers, and many tradition stores , cafes, convenience stores a few blocks away. Staff are very courteous and helpful. Only con is a bit noisy at night and early morning, and futon on tatami is a bit hard for my body.
