Humble ryokan in Kyoto. The building and facilities are a bit dated, nothing fancy but does the job. Public bath available until midnight. Breakfast included and it was very good.

Staying at Hifumi Ryokan was awesome! The staff there was always ready to help out and some even knew some English! The room itself was comfortable and sleeping on the futons was not much different than sleeping on a regular bed. The breakfast was very traditional and has good and bad points to it if you are not used to it. However, the location of Hifumi cannot be understated. It is right next to Kyoto Station so it is very easy to go to places like Osaka or Nara for the day and come back.

Visited with my family of 4 and had a wonderful experience. Very close to the metro and lots of restaurants. The area was very walkable and convenient. The staff was very friendly and took the time to explain everything as this was our first ryokan experience. The facilities were clean and comfortable. I would definitely come back and would recommend to others!

온천쪽이 다소 아쉬운 편이나 료칸치고 저렴한가격이니 감안가능함. 서비스는 료칸답게 좋음, 가이세키도 맛있음. 아쉬운 점이 있다면 와이파이가 잘끊깁니다. 한층사람 전체가 같은 와이파이 써서 그런것같습니다. 교통에선 근처에 교토역이 걸어서 금방이니 좋은편.

Chris • Couple Trip

Pros: Walking distance from Kyoto station Breakfast was excellent If you pick the half board option, you will also be served a traditional Japan dinner which is an amazing experience Cons: Shared public bath might come as a cultural shock to some

일본 고유의 조식과 숙소분위기 좋았습니다 그리고 각종 서비스도 너무 좋았어요 시설 위치 정말 좋았구요 다만 아쉬웠던건 침구류 청결이.. 겉에 씌우는건 매일 갈아주시지만 내피가 오래된 것 같아서 좀 아쉬웠습니다 하지만 다음 여행오게 되면 여기를 묵을 생각입니다 대화가 원활하게 안되어도 친절함은 느껴졌습니다

Convenient location very close to Kyoto station. Staffs are very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast and dinner are unforgettable. We are happy to stay in ryokan instead chain hotel in Kyoto. Unique experience!
