Room was large. There is very little AC in the hallways. It took a long time to cool off the room, but then it was ok. There was no room service cleaning, we just got clean towels. If you want to experience this type of accommodations- and experience, one night will be more then enough. Location is great - walking distance to Gion district, geisha theater, etc

The location was perfect. The tatami rooms were in very nice condition and the staff was helpful. They do not forward luggage but the Kuroneko office was in front of the hotel. It was everything we were looking for within our budget.

10/10 Ryokan and Kaiseki experience :)

Perfect location, close to Yasaka shrine and Hokan-ji. The Kaiseki dinner is a must-have for first-time ryokan experience! Very friendly and attentive staffs with fluent English. Bonus: Kimono rental places are just around the corner - the classic photo spots are within 5-10 minutes walk.

Loved this hotel so much! It’s small but cozy. As soon as you walk in you take off your shoes and I loved that. They also offer you green tea when you check in. The location is very close to Gion and the hotel is a 15 minute walk to the closest station. The rooms are spacious and since the hotel is small I had the onsen all to myself at times which I really liked. The staff were all great and overall I highly recommend this ryokan.

I truly enjoyed the attentive, kind, and professional service from the staff. I was pleasantly surprised that most of the staff spoke English, even though this was a traditional Japanese ryokan. The food, presentation, and service were all exceptional—every detail was beautifully done. I’m definitely going back!
