"We had a great stay at the Muni.

Top Rakushisha Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Canvas Kyoto Nijo

8/10 Good

"The staff helped with two non-standard issues and resolved them quite helpfully"

Kadensho, Arashiyama Onsen, Kyoto - Kyoritsu Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay. We used the private and public baths and booked a Japanese massage. Both were incredible experiences. The breakfast was an experience - the traditional Japanese option is absolutely worth trying. We stayed in a lovely spacious room, and were within walking distance of many major tourist attractions!, Highly recommend!"

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Hotel in great location, across from the train station. Room is very clean and spacious with all amenities needed. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended this hotel."

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."
