The Ranzan Hotel is located in a great walkable section of Kyoto. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room is clean, but the bathroom fixtures are dated. The air conditioner had a hard time keeping the room cool during the heatwave.

Lovely hotel in the heart of Arashiyama with spectacular views and peaceful surroundings. Its a few minutes walk away from the local lines and around 10 minutes from the JR line, both which take about 20 minutes to get to Kyoto. I would definitely recommend this place if you want a break away from the busy atmosphere in the main cities

It is a good location to feel countryside of Japan. The streets and houses around hotel were very cute. It was traditional Japanese style hotel but it was out dated. If you are a morning coffee drinker, this is not a good place. No coffee machine, no 7-11 around. Staffs were friendly.

The hotel was in a good location and within walking distance of the Arashiyama main street and the Bumboo forest. The Japanese courtyard was clean and maintained. Japanese maples would be so beautiful in Autumn. All the staff are helpful and kind.

The Kyoto Ranzan is a fantastic place to stay in Arashiyama. It is tucked away from the tourist buzz but just next to the river, the Arashiyama park, the Tenryu-ji temple, the bamboo grove and the monkey park. The room was pleasant and had everything that you need. The food was varied, elegant and delectable. The bath was a pleasure. Very helpful staff as well. Highly recommended

The hotel is located at the edge of Arashiyama park, so super convenient and walkable to the river band, the park observation point, the Seiryiji temple and bamboo forest, as well as the down town shopping/dinning area, yet, it is also sitting at a pretty quiet location. You can also walk cross the Togetsukyō bridge to the other side for the Monkey park, etc. The hotel room is very spacious, also offer hot spring pools for both female and male. The taxi ride from train station is not bad either. With all the items we loved as tourists, we would definitely recommend it to our friends. Thanks.
