Amazing ryokan. It was mind blowing to be served a 7 course meal by the seventh generation owner/chef. The dinner was amazing. The property is beautifully decorated. Everything is centered around the guests’ comfort.

Wonderful stay. We ordered massages and it was some of the best we had experienced. We hadn't realized that the kitchen was closed on Wednesdays and Sundays, so that was important to know ahead of time as we had missed the opportunity for the traditional dinner

What a beautiful experience in a real, traditional atmosphere! I loved the Owner’s philosophy of carrying on traditions by means of making it relevant for each generation. The attention to detail in the architecture, design, even the sogetsu ikebana flower arrangements, and of course, the seasonally unique kaiseki meal, was wonderful. The Yukatas and most comfortable pajamas added to the feel of authenticity and calm.

Our three-night stay at Izuyasu was one of the highlights of our three weeks in Japan. As soon as we stepped through the ryokan's doors, we were greeted by Izuyasu's warm and attentive staff. who welcomed us with genuine kindness and a deep commitment to ensuring our stay was nothing short of exceptional. A special bow to manager Nino who epitomized this remarkable hospitality. A short walk from Kyoto Station, the inn is on a quiet street. It's steps away from a Family Market convenience store and a post office for mailing post cards. The guest rooms are well appointed, featuring tatami mats, shoji screens and futon bedding, We had a small powder room with Toto toilet and sink. Bathing was well-orchestrated by staff; it was never difficult finding time to get in a long soak! Breakfast in our room was a treat and really added to the experience.

Amazing traditional inn with lots of history. Brilliant staff that you could wish for. Relaxing atmosphere, your own private onshen and we Would definitely recommend having the traditional breakfast and seven course meal for dinner, you wouldn’t want to miss it. Great location to get to places. This place comes very highly recommended. We would have loved to stay longer but we had plans back in Tokyo. Next time we will stay longer!

Wonderful proprietors and staff. We separately booked a dinner with them (highly recommend) and the owner is the head chef. He's very passionate about cooking and it showed in this wonderful 7-course meal, as well as in the delicious kaiseki breakfast that is included with the room rate. Bathing arrangement is much easier than it originally sounded from their email, and all in all a very memorable stay with kind and welcoming hosts.

Blown away!
This place was absolutely incredible. Every detail of my stay was extremely thought through by the hotel staff. I had no idea how personal the experience would be or that the property would have such a rich history. The owner is the chef, and he cooked the dinners in front of us, explained several Japanese culinary traditions, showed us the artwork collection on the property, and gave us the history of his hotel and his family. The food was top-notch, traditional, and different each night and morning (great for seafood lovers!). I don't speak any Japanese unfortunately, but there are enough English speaking staff members on-site to provide translations for everything. My recommendation for staying here is that guests plan their stays in Kyoto around spending a significant amount of time at Izuyasu in the evenings to fully appreciate the experience. For those looking to stay here but also experience night life in Kyoto, I recommend splitting the trip between Izuyasu and another simpler hotel (unless cost is no object). Note that Izuyasu has an 11 PM - 7AM curfew. My only suggestion for improvement is that the hotel add an explanation on their guest book about how massage payments work. I was unaware that I was supposed to pay the massage therapist directly, rather than through the hotel, and I was lucky that I had enough cash on-hand.

I had a phenomenal experience of a traditional ryokan in Kyoto, minutes walk from Kyoto main station. The property and staff are impeccable, I’ve not slept so well in weeks nor woken feeling so refreshed. The one of three on-site onsen I relaxed in were perfect following much exploring of sights in Kyoto and set me up for another full day of sightseeing. When I come back to Kyoto I will stay here again without doubt or hesitation.

Great ryokan experience in Kyoto
I recently stayed at the Izuyasu ryokan for 2 nights with 3 friends in the Ki superior room. We had an excellent time during our stay in this traditional inn. We were provided with yukata to wear while we were there. We enjoyed the Japanese breakfasts served at the inn, but did not do the kaiseki dinner so that we would have additional time to explore the city as there is an 11:00 PM curfew as a courtesy to the other guests. The staff were very accomodating to any requests that we had and I would definitely recommend it to someone looking for this experience while in Kyoto.
