"Si vous arrivez à trouver le lieu, chapeau. Même avec un bon GPS, ce n'est pas mince affaire. C'est une maison privée au sein d'un dédale de rues, mais le quartier est agréable, près de la rivière et à 20 minutes de marche d'un temple très sous-estimé (le Shodenji), 10 minutes de marche du Kamigano Shrine. Le bus 09 part de la gare et au terminus, il y a 10 minutes de marche en traversant le pont sur la rivière. Le gérant parle pas trop mal l'anglais, les chambres sont évidemment...

The place was tasteful and had everything I needed. In particular there was a microwave oven in the room which I really appreciated. The hosts were super-nice. One the best places I have stayed in Japan over the past 30 years

This small hotel is really cute. The rooms are clean, equipped and super nice! The staff was really helpful and polite. They have breakfast and they have 2 light meals during the day which were good and perfect for what they are. Really happy with the property and the experience. I loved the bathtub with view on the interior garden.

The service here is absolutely impeccable. I wasn't sure when booking this hotel if it would meet expectations and there was only sketches for pictures on the site, but it actually exceeded them! It was so quiet there also and in a fabulous location, close to the Castle, train station and numerous other transportation options, great food.
The gardens were lovely. At night as it was so quiet, you could hear the several waterfalls and drift off to sleep. It's also in a very pretty part of town....

This ryokan had just opened when we were lucky enough to stay here. The rooms were bright, and beautifully appointed, with touches of Kyoto--a view of the garden, traditionally shaped lamp and personal bath. But the amenities were modern and thoughtful --powerful hairdryer, coffee in room and thick futon mattresses. If you are accustomed to ryokan, or looking for the ryokan experience, you can have it here, while still taking advantage of modern luxuries like a shower head with a massage...

Our host/server at breakfast both mornings was especially kind and good humored. He was very professional and excellent at connecting with guests in a genuine way

An unforgettable traditional ryokan experience! Amazing location, extremely quiet, ultra relaxing, environment to completely unwind. The staff is incredible, the food is delectable, and the tea ceremony (do not skip) is a magical and unforgettable experience. You’re sleeping on a futon on tatami floors in a 157 year old building in historic Kyoto, just as they’ve done for 1,200 years. A wonderful way to spend a night or two during your visit!

We had a great stay at Luck You. The staff was extremely helpful and nice, always offering tea and welcoming with a huge smile. The design is lovely and the "breakfast" area is pleasant and peaceful.

The home was stunning, it's exactly what we needed to recharge after walking 30 miles a day for a week already. The private onsen washed away all fatigue, I highly recommend staying here to experience another level of relaxation whilst in Kyoto. It's conveniently located right by the gojo station so getting home after adventures is cake (3 minute walk, maybe) . I would gladly come back for a longer stay. Thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness!

I first I was nervous to go to a place where I didn't even have anyone who could tell me anything about it. Once I got there and the person doing the check in was Super friendly, patient, and helpful even with the things he didn't know cause he is from Osaka, as he mentioned when I asked about places in the area. Still he made efforts to make me feel welcome and comfortable. I definitely highly recommend this place. It's located in a good area where you can start your journey no matter where you...

We loved our time here!
The room was actually pretty spacious compared to other hotels on our Japan trip around the same price point. It was nice to have a little kitchenette for tea and heating up food as well.
Close by to A LOT of great food, activities and a park. It’s also a short walk from Kyoto station.
The Resy team was very quick to communicate and give us anything we needed when we asked for it :)
Would stay here again!

Excellent location under a 10 minute walk to Shijo station and Nishiki market is steps out your front door. Lots of restaurants and plenty of room for a family of four. The check-in process is the only odd part but it’s not that difficult to navigate if you arrive at Kyoto Station and it’s easy to catch the subway to Shijo station and walk to the property. Excellent property. We would stay there again. FYI…. The first floor rooms have opaque windows so you have no view. It wasn’t a deal killer...
