1. MUNI KYOTO

Arashiyama, 0.9 km from Rakushisha

"We had a great stay at the Muni. Fantastic location, modern rooms, wonderful breakfast, but what sets this hotel apart is the service we received specially from the front desk staff who were always so attentive and considerate of our needs and comfort. From helping us with our luggage, giving us sightseeing tips, calling taxis for us, all this showed true hospitality and caring. The Muni made our time in Arashiyama truly enjoyable."

Top Rakushisha Hotel Reviews

Kadensho, Arashiyama Onsen, Kyoto - Kyoritsu Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed one night here for the experience before switching to a different hotel across the city……… regretted that decision and wished I stayed the whole time I was in Kyoto . The hotel was amazing. The private Onsens are relaxing, the old tatami mat aesthetic is very comforting and the rooms are nice and spacious. They even had free noodles as a snack at 22:30 at night. Highly recommend this hotel. I will be staying here on my next trip to Kyoto"

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Did not have coin operated laundry machine, and laundry service was too expensive. Did not have hot bath facility. Big disappointment@"

Togetsutei

10/10 Excellent

"Great Ryokan!"

MUNI KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing staff, stunning views of the river, superb breakfast, the garden views were chefs kiss!"

Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing and tranquil! Sad we had to go, the baths were so nice after putting in 20k steps a day!"

Ryokan Yamazaki

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice Ryokan! Slightly removed from the core but there are 2 buses that regularly go into town so its not a huge issue. We stayed in the private room on the lower floor with the private zen garden, highly recommend if its available as it was amazing for late night drinks, and the sounds of night and the river that runs beside the ryokan. A must stay for a traditional experience! One Laundry + dryer on site for a small charge (plus you need to buy a detergent packet from the front desk, 200yen). The Japanese style breakfast was delicious, make sure you let the staff know the day before if youd like to have it, its 1500yen per person and well worth it! Will definitely be staying here again next time."
