Excellent service and wonderful kaiseki breakfast and dinners. Location extremely convenient near many shrines, temples, dining, shopping, transportation. Only downside is facities are on the older side and air conditioner is loud and always on in the room during the summer.
Fantastic stay steeped in Japanese tradition. Rooms beautiful, welcome wonderful, beds comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, prehaps a bit too much for 2 teenagers, but still amazing and delicious regardless.
Artisinal authentic Japanese ryokan with superb yuzu themed food! Central location and lovely well-maintained property! Warm hospitality! Check dinner times since we almost missed ours..
Great location, beautiful property, and tremendous food. The staff was tremendously helpful and had great senses of humor. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
We had the most wonderful stay at Yuzuya Ryokan, it provided the true traditional ryokan experience from beginning to end. The staff are so friendly and always willing to help and look after us. The room was huge and so comfortable. And the Japanese breakfast was absolutely delicious.
The location was also very conveniently based in Gion, close to the temples in the area and in walking distance to the main Gion district where we found many shops and restaurants.
We will definitely be back!
Great experience of Japanese lifestyle, sleeping in futon beds in a tatami room. Highlight of the stay is the Japanese breakfast , wearing a yukata garb. staff are very helpful. They are like family, assisting us from the start until the end.
This was a true Japanese experience. The place is magical and the food is amazing. I loved being able to try multiple authentic Japanese dishes in one meal
Absolute wonderful Ryokan to harbor at the heart of Gion! From amenities to services to dinings, everything is knitted to the smallest details. Definitely would be back again in the future should availability allows.
Yuzuya is a nice classic ryokan in the heart of Gion. We stayed at a number of other Ryokan in Japan and we enjoyed this one as well. Room was smaller than expected, I will say, though the wooden bath tub in the room was great. The best thing by far about Yuzuya, though, was the incredible food. Really next level dinner and breakfast - some of the best food we had in Kyoto. But the main drawback is the price, which I don't think matched the quality of the services provided. Don't get me wrong: it's a gorgeous property and the food was fantastic. But it still felt overpriced. Nevertheless, if you aren't getting the Ryokan experience in another city, stay here 1 night (no longer is needed).
