This is a very traditional hotel. We slept on tatami and ate the Kaiseki dinner in our room. It’s a rather expensive stay but we got to try it.

Our family had a great experience staying at Ryokan Kinoe. It has all the traditional Japanese accommodations. Large rooms, tatami floors, Japanese kimono/ robes, experience public bath if you want but each room has it’s own bath, shower & separate toilet. Very quiet area but walking distance to Gion/ downtown area of Kyoto, temples & shrines. The traditional Japanese meal/ dinner is also a must experience! Excellent place to stay & the staff is very friendly & helpful. Highly recommended!

Excellent Ryokan experience
Excellent experience for my teenager, who loves Japanese culture; the check in was excellent, very personal and made us feel special ad welcome; the room was spacious and typical of a Ryokan with tatami floor and futon; service in front desk and in restaurant was awesome, highly recommended.

Delicious dinner and wonderful service
This was a beautiful and clean Ryoksn hotel - the food for dinner was wonderful and the service so friendly. The futons were not the most comfortable to sleep on but the room was very spacious with an alcove for sitting (but only two actual chairs). The onsen was small and not the most aesthetic, but fortunately was alone in the bath.

This ryokan has very nice and spacious rooms and friendly staff. The public bath is a bit small but there are not many guests at the ryokan so it was not a problem. The breakfast is tasty and has quite a few options.

Quiet and clean property. We got to experience a traditional Japanese-style room. Lobby was a little warm but the room was cool and comfortable. Room was spacious for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens). Property was close to many sites and shopping areas. The staff were very helpful. We left our phone in an Uber and the hotel staff were so helpful in getting the phone back for us. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was rather basic and the limited staff were not the friendliest folk. Everywhere else we stayed or visited in Japan felt welcoming; the Kinoe felt like we were an intrusion. No one helped us "figure out" how to use the room (where light switches were, how to turn off the extremely noisy room fan, how to work the noisy AC, etc.). No greeting whenever you would arrive back at the hotel. It felt cold and univiting.
