Accueil extraordinaire! Chambre de type japonaise très confortable pour une famille de quatre. Déjeuners incroyables servis à la chambre. Nous avons profité de la proximité du quartier de Gion où nous sommes allés tous les jours à pied. Également à deux pas du marché Nishiki. Nous avons hâte à notre prochain séjour au Matsui Honkan!

Amazing hotel, warm staff, a great way to enrich yourself with Japanese customs. Had the breakfast each morning. It was fresh, presented beautifully & a fun treat. Kyoto is so lovely, this hotel was perfect walking distance to many shops & restaurants. Highly recommend.

Very traditional ryokan. Futons and low tables. If you are there for a couple of nights its fine. Not much storage space if you need to unpack. Staff are lovely and friendly and helpful. Proper old style japan experience
