    The onsen is set back in the woods and it’s a welcome break from the city. It takes an hour by bus to get there, but is really easy to navigate. There are shrines all around that are an easy walk to get to. There was a delicious traditional dinner and breakfast that we took advantage of also. It was so much food!

    I had a very good experience at Hop Inn! The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable, we had some issues with transportation and losing a pocket WiFi and they did a lot to assist us. The room was a good layout and had plenty of closet space. I really liked the body wash and the amenities available in the lobby (bath salts, cotton swabs, shower caps, etc. +coffee and tea).

    The room was quite big and very quiet. Staff very helpful. They even allowed us to use their washing machine. Everything was tidy through out the day, and just a little messy around dinner. However the staff would always promptly clean.

    Excellent location in the heart of Gion. Very fun to try a traditional Ryokan for at least one night. Staff was superb and really took pride in showing guests tradition and culture. Food was very good for dinner and breakfast but make sure you like fish and are adventurous!

    Amazing service and experience all round. Dinner service was excellent and a highlight of our trip, a great way to experience authentic Japanese dining. Private outdoor bath was amazing as well, all you had to do was relax The local area around Momijiya is great to explore, the nearby temples and scenery were nice to unwind in after the craziness of Kyoto city.

    We liked how spacious the room was and the kind innkeeper that guided us to our room and showed us the ropes, she was the sweetest. The bath was nice too, but definitely not big enough for two people so it was good only one of us went. The location is great and in the Gion District and also a 5 minute walk from the station!

    Koya Guest House is a classic Ryokan inn. The place has its character and it is a privilege indeed to have a chance to stay in a guest house like this. There is a garden outside the common area where you can sit and enjoy the quiet beauty of the place. My room has everything for me to feel comfortable. I am very happy I booked this place. Breakfast is simple but a good start for a day, with an unlimited team and coffee during the day.
