Everything You Could Want From a Ryokan”
This isn’t a budget ryokan, but rather it’s everything you would want from a real, historic ryokan. Beautiful, comfortable rooms, amazing garden view, always hot private onsen. A great experience.

Lovely Ryokan with private Onsen”
We stayed in room No.1 with the private onsen and tatami mat floors - as out first time in a Ryokan and since we were celebrating a birthday this room was perfect for us. Staff were friendly, facilities were great - as was the breakfast there. Strongly recommend. Only negative was price, but we booked at short notice over the holidays so prices were likely inflated due to that alone.

Modern comfort meets traditional service ”
Modern updates with traditional ryokan style; convenient location near north Higashiyama sites; spacious room with beautiful garden view and private wooden bath. Near main road but quiet enough. We didn’t try the food because we wanted to experience Kyoto nightlife so I can’t speak for the food.

Value for money ”
The price we paid thought already after 20% discount , it is still high and could pay for more than 2 nights of another 4* hotel we booked with location directly opposite Kyoto station. Thought to experience Ryokan, Japanese style hotel as recommended by one article, we felt it is nothing but just to sleep on the floor instead of on the bed , room is very spacious but toilet is very small. The public bath is just a much bigger bathtub. The plus points are the small garden for photo shoot without crowd and waiting for others to take theirs( it may not be a plus point if you already visited many temples and shrine with much bigger garden) ; it's location which is very close to a beautiful shrine and the friendliness of the staff which we experienced it every where we go.

Good”
This was the 3rd ryokan I’d stayed in during my trip and was by far the worst. Very old decor in serious need of a refresh. Cleaning products left everywhere in the corridors. The dining area was beautiful as was the outdoor garden. Wouldn’t recommend more than one night here

Cheap hostel with nice garden”
My expectations were high given the (mainly) high ratings given by other reviewers. However, I was sorely disappointed. The room was run down with old and mismatched furniture. My room had a private bathroom with a tub that had a piece of wood wedged on one corner to prevent it from rocking (although it still did). The sliding doors didn’t slide but wobbled. In the morning, there were piles of used sheets in the corridor and cleaning items left on the chair outside the room - giving a real messy feel to the whole place. As I had a road facing room, traffic noise could be heard throughout the night (although Kyoto is a quiet town and this is in a fairly quiet part of town, the ryokan is along a mid size road with moderate amount of traffic going by). Nothing about the place really justifies the high price charged for the room. Honestly, I’ve stayed in hostels that provided a much higher level of personalised service and guest experience compared to this.

Would not recommend ”
Extremely expensive for a run down ryokan. Ryokan was old and in dire need of a renovation. Bathrooms had lots of mould. Not very clean at all - spiderwebs in corners of room. Hallways were old and musty. Stains on the floor of the room. Would not recommend, unless you are happy with backpacker-like accommodation.

charming traditional ryokan”
I stayed in Kyoto Garden Ryokan Yachiyo hotel for one night and wished I had more. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff helping us replace our snickers for traditional sandals. The room was great and the atmosphere was traditional which is what should be expected in a Ryokan. i did a lot of research before my purchase and was surprised to see this reasonably priced ryokan which was of a high quality. i recommend it for any traveller!

good rocation, good manner”
i had stayed in yachiyo ryokan with my mother 6 nights 7 days. we really enjoyed kyoto life with their help. the staffs are kind, always smiled. when we came back yachiyo from late dinner & drink, they allowed us to take a big bath(onsen). as it was pretty cold, we could sleep well after taking the bath. we stayed in yachiyo quite long days. ipad was for lental for free, so it was very helpful. we researched where we went, we discovered nice restaurant. :)) thank you yachiyo!

Beautiful Ryokan”
It was my first time staying in a Ryokan and the Kyoto Garden Ryokan Yachiyo Hotel was amazing. I stayed for 3 nights, the staff were friendly, warm and helpful, it's just across the road from a community centre, a must go for maps. I was a single traveller and the room was very large, they put the bed out at night and away during the day. I was served tea when I arrived and you wear different slippers everywhere, it was very traditional.

Amazing stay at a ryokan in Koyto”
My husband and I stayed at Yachiyo the first week of April 2018. We had no trouble finding the location, conveniently a block away from the Keage metro stop. This ryokan has a wonderfully relaxing location, with rooms facing small gardens. Beautiful traditional rooms await you,. We were served tea upon arrival in our room. Nice touch. The staff was helpful, knowledgable and enthusiastic. Happy to see us on our way in or out. The facilities were excellent. Our view of the garden was amazing. A wonderful three nights in Kyoto with this oasis to call home during our stay. Highly recommend. We can’t wait to return another time!

Peaceful ryokan in Kyoto”
Yachiyo is a beautiful ryokan in Kyoto. It’s away from the busy parts (about 15min walking) so it feels like a peaceful escape. It’s very close to a few temples and you can easily get to the philosopher’s walk to Gingaku-ji. The staff were warm and welcoming and we wish we could have stayed longer. We stayed in the traditional Japanese room with no garden view and it was lovely. We had a tea set and hot water in our room and a tv which we didn’t use. Because we arrived late, the staff had already set out our tatami mats. We used the shared bathing (onsen) twice (9:30pm and 9:00 am) and had it all to our selves. Traditional robes were provided to wear to and from the bath. Highly recommend the free soft serve in the lobby after you soak.

A wonderful experience. ”
We had a lovely stay at Kyoto Garden Ryokan Yachiyo Hotel! The staff were all very nice and helpful which contributed greatly to the whole experience. I was confused about part of my reservation and they were very willing to assist me in straightening things out. The garden view room is amazing and I would definitely recommend this unforgettable experience to all! The hotel is perfectly located near many of the sights. We hope to be back in the near future!

Absolutely magical”
I currently live in Japan, but this was my first stay in a ryokan. I stayed with a friend and it could not have been more perfect. Our room was very traditional and beautiful. We had a room with access to the garden, which was lovely. Our room was spacious with 2 bathrooms and the staff was very attentive. There is a also a bath on site which my friend and I really enjoyed. In the morning we chose the western style breakfast (I was very pleased to have the option) and it was simple but very nice - coffee, toast and jam, eggs and bacon. The dining area also has access to a garden with a koi pond, we finished up our coffee and fed the fish with food offered by the staff. If you are looking for a traditional Japanese experience, you can't beat the Yachiyo Hotel.

Beautiful Ryokan near Nanzenji Temple”
A few minutes walk to Nanzenji Temple and other spots around it but this place is more suited for couples than family. It is an old but beautiful Ryokan so its not comparable to a hotel. The place is very quiet and tranquil and not suitable for young children. We had a great New Year's Dinner at the restaurant, Japanese Style Sukiyaki and the Kobe Beef was absolutely delicious. Breakfast is average and served like a set meal so you dont get to have any choice. The highlight of the trip is exploring Nanzenji Shrine!
