Ryokan Motonago

房間超級大 還配備花園很漂亮，泡湯要預約很舒服。老闆人超級好😭😭😭這次是和朋友來的還約定了早餐，也很好吃。下次如果和父母家人一起出行肯定會考慮這家，周邊環境很漂亮，旅館裏也很安靜，很傳統的日式風格一直想體驗一次，元奈古和京都一樣都是非常美好的回憶！

傳統日式的風格，很特別的一次體驗，公共浴室比想象的方便。地理位置簡直太棒了，清水寺步行10分鐘！早起就能體驗到不擁擠的二年阪三年阪。

Исключительный первоклассный традиционный японский рёкан в самом сердце живописного района Гион. Этот рёкан явно усердно работает над сохранением своих традиционных деталей и поддерживает все в отличном состоянии — от безупречных сёдзи с панелями юкими (наблюдение за снегом) до свежевыглаженной юкаты и пальто в вашем номере. Мы остановились на одну ночь в номере на четверых, а затем в двух номерах на двоих — все они были очень удобными и просторными номерами с татами, красивыми видами, кондиционером и низкими столиками и подушками для чаепития, которые появлялись в номере днем. Общий о-фуру зарезервирован для вашего номера и имеет замечательную глубокую деревянную ванну для замачивания. Завтрак подавался в 7:30, 8:00 или 8:30 утра и соответствовал изысканным деталям всего, как западного завтрака (с яйцом, ветчиной, тостами, салатом, милой маленькой кашей и кофе), так и японского завтрака (с жареной рыбой, горячим тофу, омлетом тамаго, рисом, супом мисо и чаем). Мы не ужинали в рёкане, поэтому не могу ничего сказать. Персонал и владелец очень дружелюбны и услужливы — появляются как по волшебству, когда они нужны, например, забирают вашу обувь, когда вы приходите, и заставляют ее появиться, когда вы собираетесь уходить.

We decided on Montonago after browsing TripAdvisor and other travel sites very thoroughly. We arrived a few hours before check in, but the kind host welcomed us with a nice iced hand towel, and was ready to take our bags as well as guide us to a great lunch spot nearby. Their English is limited, but we were able to communicate very easily. When we returned after check in time, we were greeted by multiple staff, who led us to our room, gave us hot tea, sweets, and immediately scheduled the baths for the evening and the next morning. We chose the Aoba room as our accommodation, which had its own toilet and bath, as well as a spacious and warm traditional Japanese styled room. It was slightly pricey, but 100% worth it as we had a view of the garden, and lots of space and a private toilet. We also opted for the traditional Japanese breakfast every morning of our trip which is definitely the way to go, as we had no other Japanese breakfast options during the rest of our 16 days in Japan. The breakfast was great, I recommend it to anyone who wants a full immersion of Japanese culture. The hotel’s location was also in an amazing spot as well, we were able to walk everywhere and only needed a taxi once! We also chose the traditional Kassegi dinner which was prepared by the hotel, we had a beautiful dinner room with amazing food! If you have picky eaters in the family, that may be a little difficult, but we felt it was worth it and delicious. We slept on the traditional Japanese beds as well, which was the best nights of sleep we had the whole trip! Don’t be scared of trying something new, it was always worth it. We left the ryokan longing to go back. Staff was amazing, helped us the whole way. We couldn’t recommend this place more. Go to Montonago!!!

Absolutely lovely! Staying at the Ryokan Motonago was one of the highlights for my family and myself during our trip to Japan. It is located right in Gion and the neighborhood around the ryokan was beautiful. The streets still maintain much of a historical and traditional feel that seem to sweep you to another era in history as you’re walking through it. The ryokan itself was just as wonderful! The staff was very courteous and welcoming. Even though our Japanese was very limited, they were able to speak some English and in the end, we did not have any major issues with language. They introduced us to our room, which was spacious and had a view into a small garden area outside. Then, they also provided a simple tea service with mochi. The room comes with internet as well, albeit somewhat slow at times. We did not opt for kaiseki dinner, so we went out to explore the street and sightsee at night. When we returned, our futons were set up and we were treated to more tea. Then, when our reserved times for the baths came, everything was already set up for us - the bath was overflowing with hot water and they even had a small clock in the corner to help us keep time lol. It was perfect! The next morning, we had a Japanese breakfast, which was delicious and beautifully prepared. Then when we returned back to our room, our futons were already put away for us! If you’re looking for an experience in the ryokan, I very much recommend coming here. The staff is wonderful and staying here will make for a memorable night in Kyoto!

Amazing Ryokan experience for first timers in Kyoto. Having read many reviews and how this place maybe expensive, we felt it loved upto the costs based on the location, hospitality and how well maintained the property was. Staff were incredibly helpful and even accommodated a late vegetation request for our breakfast meal. We stayed in two different rooms over our stay and got to experience the communal bathroom which was special too.
