Ryoso Chatani

I loved everything. The hosts were very kind. Absolutely spotless.

Magnificent hotel! The owners are absolutely superb, a truly wonderful family. Breakfast and dinner were so filling, I could barely move afterwards. The scenery is out of this world. The ryokan with its onsen is definitely worth the money. It's been a long time since I've relaxed so comfortably. Huge thanks to the owners! 🔥🔥🔥😊

The ryokan is simple but lovely. The staff, consisting of two people—a grandmother and grandfather—are very pleasant and polite, always approachable. The ryokan is located in a picturesque spot with mountain air, a river, and always welcoming and polite people. They even provide yukata, so you can feel like a true Japanese person there. The food is plentiful; we booked a room with breakfast and dinner included, and we were simply shocked by the amount of food; it was absolutely delicious. The futons were lovely and comfortable to sleep on.

A wonderful hotel in northern Kyoto! Wonderful hosts, ready to answer any questions or just chat in their free time. Delicious food, cozy rooms, and a pleasant hot spring. Upon check-in, they offer you the choice of a yukata, which you can wear throughout the hotel. Instructions on how to properly put on a yukata and use the onsen are provided in the room. Beautiful scenery around the hotel. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

The environment is very quiet and relaxing. The hotel owners, the old man and the old woman, are very kind and friendly. As soon as we walked in, they enthusiastically asked us to choose yukata. The breakfast and dinner were impeccable and very delicious.

The bus ride from Kyoto to the hotel was quite long, probably over 40 stops, and then a 7-8 minute walk. The road was generally okay. The hotel is surrounded by mountains and farmland, and the scenery was beautiful after rain. The room wasn't large, but it was still comfortable for two people after we put our luggage in. However, you couldn't wear your own shoes once you entered the hotel; they didn't provide socks. The walk from the guest room to the restaurant was about ten meters. Slippers were provided at the entrance, but they didn't have your room number printed on them. You couldn't wear them into the restaurant in your slippers, and they would have gotten mixed up, so I had to clean them with alcohol wipes. I recommend having your shoe size printed on the slippers so you can wear your own. The hot spring isn't large, but it was clean, and the bath products were excellent. The rooms are on the second floor, which doesn't have a toilet or bathroom, so you have to go up to the first floor. The stairs are steep, and I was a bit worried about missing a step when going up and down to the bathroom in the middle of the night. The elderly man was very hospitable and personally cooked us a delicious chicken hot pot for dinner.
