Frommer's Review
This ryokan is different from my other high-end Japanese inn recommendations in that it's been in operation only half a century and occupies a modern, 12-year-old building. However, there may be room at this inn when more famous establishments are full, and it has an interesting location on the edge of the Gion geisha district. Under the able management of Ms. Chizuyo Miyata, it offers simple but elegant tatami rooms with all the traditional flourishes like shoji screens, sliding paper doors, calligraphy in the tokonoma alcove, and a seating area beside the window. Meals, including Western breakfasts on request, are served in your room. Rates below, based on two persons occupying a room, reflect the seasons, with higher rates charged on weekends and the highest rates in spring and autumn.
Facilities:
In-room massage
