We loved everything about it! Everyone is so nice, and it feels like you've stepped into a magical place; highly recommended! Beautiful scenery, big room, traditional Japanese meals, great kids' room to play, free shuttle from the bus stop, we were lucky to be there for Japanese Halloween and learn about their traditions, we loved it all!

We wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of Kyoto, and the area around Takao was so beautiful and peaceful!
Remember to bring cash with you if you climb up to the temple area behind the hotel. We didn’t do that, and it was frustrating to realize after the hard climb that you cannot enter the temple area if you only have a credit card. Also, be aware that the stairs can be slippery when wet.
If you love traditional Japanese food, you’ll love the dinner and breakfast.
The owner and the staff were wonderful. They even arranged a birthday cake for my husband.
As there’s little to do after dark, it's a good idea to pack some entertainment with you.

The Ryokan is a great experience, but this one is very, very, very old. There has not been made any renovation or improvement in at least 30 years.
The food was good but very expensive!
Bad smell in the room, I got instant allergies.
The bathroom is old and the Onsen is unusable due to the fact that is looks old and rather dirty.
