This ryokan is located in an ideal location just 10 min walk from the train station . Also there are about 15 car park lots that u can park your car . It is ideal for visiting Kimono forest and bamboo forest and also fu fu no yu Onsen as well as boating along the Katsura river . The rooms are of an adequate size with twin beds . Temperature control is good though wifi is poor . The bathtub is lovely with good water pressure . Beds are firm though only one pillow per bed is provided. Two bottles of mineral water are supplied. Dinner is very good with sukiyaki beef though the appetizers and dessert can be improved . Breakfast is buffet with rice / porridge and small little dishes as well as onsen eggs . We skipped the public bath and went to Fu Fu No Yu which was excellent . Overall a good stay though the wifi needs to be improved .

The location is perfect, ample car parking and right on the river. The river, the bamboo forest and the monkey sanctuary are all in easy walking distance. All of them are very crowded so it is wonderful to get away from it all in the peace and quiet of the Ranzan. All staff were very pleasant and helpful. The beds were a little hard for us. The room was fine but the bathroom was a bit dated.

Immerse yourself into Japan with this lodging. Kyoto Ranzan Arashiyama does this through artfully arranged meals of the highest standards. Added is yakata, traditional robe and jacket, plus slippers, that allow one the option of dining and wandering about looking like a Japanese noble. (Half the Japanese guests wore yakata.) Add this hotel backs on Todai-ji Temple (I was there most mornings) with its famous gardens). Up into the temple grounds and a right takes you to the shopping street less than 1 km. walk. Left out of the hotel and you are immediately on the awe-inspiring river. Rent a rowboat, take a motorboat up the gorge, a brisk walk up to a vista point magnet for Japanese photographers. OH! The hotel is costly BUT in-town dinner runs $40/person. A real breakfast $30/person. The full-board meal plan should help reason the expense.
