Fantastic If you are looking for a Ryokan experience, this property is exceptional. Their service and the meal we had here is something we will remember for a long time to come. Please book the meal ahead of time. Breakfast was amazing as well. Highlight of our Kyoto trip. Location is perfect. Walking distance to the main sights in Gion.

Incredible service, spotless room, fantastic meals.
This was my family's first visit to Kyoto, and staying at Yuzuya Ryokan was a delight. Everything about the ryokan was so well kept and cared for. We arrived before our check-in time, and dropped our luggage off so we could explore Gion a little before dinner service. When we returned, our bags were already moved to our two rooms.
The staff were so accommodating, explaining how to use the rooms, facilities, and wear the Japanese outfits. They spoke enough english to make it easy for us to understand.
Be sure to email them a week or two before arrival to confirm your booking. They may ask about your meal preferences if there is more than one main course option. Avoid eating a late lunch, as the multi-course dinner is very filling. Breakfast the next morning was as impressive as dinner.
Loved every moment of my time there. Happy to stay at Yuzuya Ryokan again the next time I'm in Kyoto.

Located in the center of multiple tourist sites. Walkable locations for sightseeing, shopping, and food. Also walkable to local train station. Easy spot for taxi to pickup if needed transportation to kyoto station or somewhere further. Walkable to many kimono rental stores with next day drop-off return service. Perfect location for planning on visiting multiple sites and return here in-between for a quick rest.
Did I forget the authentic ryokan style rooms with impeccable service? Recommended for an immersuve japanese culture experience.
Only downside is no laundry service for all the walking and changing clothes after dipping in own bath.
