Osaka Vacations from NT$17,490

Staff was lovely and the rooms were large. 19 minute walk from Kyoto station.

The room was large enough for a family of six. The kids loved the bunk beds. The beds were comfortable. The location was great for visiting USJ. The staff were all very friendly and the buffet breakfast had a good selection for everyone to fuel up for a long day at the park. Our family enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would stay again when visiting USJ.

Staying at Hiiragiya Ryokan in Kyoto was an unforgettable experience that beautifully captured the essence of Japanese hospitality and tradition. Established over 200 years ago, this historic inn has been lovingly maintained by the same family for seven generations, and that legacy of care and refinement is evident in every detail. Upon arrival, the atmosphere immediately conveyed a sense of calm and timeless elegance. The 7th-generation daughter personally visited our room to introduce herself, sharing the history of her family, the inn, and the customs that have shaped Japanese hospitality for centuries. Her warmth and grace made the experience feel deeply personal and meaningful, connecting us not just to the place but to its living heritage. Every aspect of our stay reflected the highest level of service we have ever encountered. From the meticulous presentation of the kaiseki meals to the attentiveness of the staff anticipating every need, the experience was defined by quiet excellence and genuine care. The rooms, adorned with traditional tatami mats, shoji screens, and seasonal flower arrangements, offered a serene retreat that felt both luxurious and authentically Japanese. It is a rare opportunity to step into a world where tradition, artistry, and hospitality converge in perfect harmony. This was not just accommodation—it was a cultural immersion and a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will be remembered as one of the most special moments of travel in Japan.

Very much recommend, great location, lovely staff, amazing views from terrace with free happy hour drinks and Onsen foot bath for weary feet.
