Ryokan Genhouin
606-8333 Kyoto, Kyoto, Sakyo-ku Okazaki Hoshojicho 77, Japan – Great location - show map
Very beautiful traditional house with a Japanese garden. It was very calm and the rooms were very spacious. The Onsen was amazing too and the breakfast that was served in my room with view of the garden was perfect. It's not a western style hotel or resort and it doesn't have many rooms and this is exactly why it's a great experience. It's also in walking distance of public transport and temples but a bit off the tourist routes. Great place to enjoy Kyoto form a less busy perspective.
