Wonderful hotel in peaceful area of Kyoto. Excellent staff who were friendly and helpful. Comfortable rooms with wonderful cypress wood baths, perfect for soaking after walking up Fushimi Inari. Very romantic place to stay for a couple.
The Takasegawa Bettei in Kyoto was excellent since we wanted to experience a typical Ryokan. The accommodation is right next to the Takasegawa River and with the cherry blossom in full season it is such a magical place. The people at the Hotel were most helpful and everything we found to be within walking distance and close to the train.
The beauty, serenity and hospitality of this traditional Japanese style hotel simply blew my mind. The staff are incredibly polite and kind. Highly recommend to anyone traveling through Kyoto
We loved the wooden bath tub. Also there was an option of a traditional japanese breakfast which was delivered to your room. Chilled water was offered throughout our stay.
A fantastic Ryokan style hotel with the most polite and helpful staff I have ever encountered! The rooms were ultra clean, the setup comfortable, the breakfast got served on time every morning personally into my room (and it was delicious), the location is conveniently around 15' walk from the main Kyoto station and around 20' walk from the central area. The staff also helped me get a taxi for the station and find traditional restaurants to try nearby. They also provided me with an umbrella when it was raining heavily before I ventured out. The rooms were very quiet and the area is also ideal to rest after a long day of sightseeing! Very highly recommended!
We stayed here before several years ago and came back because it was so good. The room was great. The pine bath was great. The staff were very friendly and very helpful and spoke good English.
