    The room was spacious by Japanese standards, especially for the location. The location was excellent. Close to public transport and many interesting tourist attractions and great restaurants.

    Kyoto Ryokan Hirashin is an older facility located within walking distance to Nishiki Market. It has large tatami rooms and a public furo/bath downstairs. Great experience but if you are not used to the bed on the floor, it may be hard for you. ...

    This is located very close to the local market. We should have booked a couple of nights here due to its location near the bus stop and Nishiki market.

    The staff is sincerely kind and friendly. The ryokan has a superb location in my opinion. The room was very nice, although the ventilation shaft cover in the bathroom was broken, but that wasn't a big issue for me
