Our stay at Rojiyu Ryokan in Kyoto was absolutely fantastic. The property is beautiful, serene, and offers a truly authentic traditional Japanese experience. The rooms are very spacious, which made it especially comfortable for our family. The attention to detail throughout the ryokan is impressive—from the design to the overall atmosphere, everything feels thoughtfully curated and peaceful. The staff were incredibly attentive, warm, and friendly, always going out of their way to make sure we felt welcomed and cared for. I would highly recommend Rojiyu to anyone visiting Kyoto, and even more so for families looking for a spacious, traditional, and memorable stay.

Room very clean, very nice Ryokan, however once we checked in iterally there was 0 staff usually available for anything. We had questions regarding how to dispose of our garbage and questions one day about no running hot water, there were explanation sheets but 0 personal available which for we had never experienced before. The laundry service in the room was helpful but again we had to use google translate to figure it out because there was usually no one around.

Our room (Kaede room) was bigger than expected. Lovely 2 night stay in a quiet inn/ryokan style accomodation. Washer/dryer combo was awesome to have. The stairs to the 2nd level is very steep. Great to have a second toilet & sink upstairs. Soaking in the open air bath after a long day out was wonderful. We never used the buses but they were everywhere, usually crowded. We used the local trains and walked. There are convenience stores a couple of blocks away.
