    “A suitable place”

    It was a trip with two families. The room was fairly spacious, and the breakfast was quaint and nice. There were no people in the public bath, so I enjoyed it leisurely by myself. It was a bit away from the center, but it was not difficult to walk, and it was actually nice and quiet.

    “Traveling with my mother.”

    I visited Arashiyama with my mother on a trip. Although we arrived before check-in time, they kindly allowed us to park the car, and we enjoyed visiting Tenryuji Temple and strolling through the bamboo grove. The room was a comfortable size, and the bed had just the right firmness. The dinner kaiseki was also very tasty. For breakfast, in addition to the set meal, we could choose pickles and onsen eggs from a buffet. The milk was very delicious. The next day, we went to the Okochi Sanso Garden by foot, during which time we were able to leave our car parked. The area near Arashiyama Station was quite crowded with tourists, and it seemed difficult to find parking, but we were very grateful to have been allowed to leave it there. The garden and scenery were wonderful, and we could enjoy a peaceful atmosphere. Thank you very much.

    “The best experience”

    I was planning to stay at Arashiyama Kaden-sho, but due to a sudden trip, I chose Ranzan instead. First of all, the location is good. It is located inside after crossing the Togetsu Bridge, and the % Arabica cafe is very close by. It’s nice for a walk as well. The staff's kindness is so excellent that there's no need to say more. It seemed that many locals made reservations. During our one-night stay, we were the only Koreans there. The wagyu sukiyaki served as kaiseki was very delicious... (the lemon shochu highball was really good). We enjoyed the breakfast neatly without burden. I think it’s the best value ryokan. While there is no hot spring, and the large public bath is available, it doesn’t seem bad if you prioritize cost performance. The cleanliness of the accommodation was also good. The interior has an old-fashioned feel, but it's decent for an experience.

    “Recommendation”

    The reviews I saw before going were generally all accurate. I stayed in a tatami room with my child. The garden view was nice, and dinner was a kaiseki meal, while breakfast was a buffet, and the large public bath was of appropriate size. The staff member serving dinner wasn't too delicate, but it wasn't bothersome. It was also nice that they set up the bedding for us after dinner. It was great that the main shopping street was just two alleys over, and walking through the bamboo forest early in the morning when there were hardly any people was also enjoyable.

    “Exceptional”

    I was able to relax slowly at a hotel with a Kyoto-like atmosphere. Right next to Togetsu Bridge, I happened to see fireworks from in front of the hotel on the day of my stay. There were many attractions in the surrounding area, such as the path through the bamboo forest, and there were dining options ranging from affordable restaurants to upscale ones. The staff were very pleasant, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious and elegantly prepared Japanese cuisine.
