Incredible hot baths experience

Home-style dinner surpassed my expectations, very cozy.

Fireflies visible at night near the guesthouse offer a unique charm during your stay. The hotpot dinner is hearty, filling you up satisfactorily after a day of travel.

The Japanese-Style Quadruple Room felt a bit cramped for a family, which may be challenging if you plan to spend more time inside. Sleeping on a futon could be uncomfortable for those unfamiliar with it, and there was a persistent odd noise every couple of minutes that disrupted my sleep.

Charming Stay Surrounded by Nature

Experiencing the home-cooked hotpot dinner was a highlight! Delicious and satisfying after a long day. Enjoying fireflies right near the guesthouse added a magical touch to evenings. Don't miss the walk around the property, as the fresh mountain air is invigorating.

The traditional atmosphere combined with the family-like hospitality made the experience memorable. The delicious home-cooked hotpot dinner was a highlight, leaving us fully satisfied. However, the shared bathroom set-up could be inconvenient during peak times, and the limited space in the Japanese-Style Twin Room felt a bit cramped. Also, while the scenic surroundings are breathtaking, reaching the location required a bit of travel.

Ryoso Chatani offers an authentic experience with clean traditional tatami mat rooms and home-cooked meals. I particularly enjoyed the hotpot for dinner, which was hearty and satisfying. The shared onsen is a lovely retreat after a day of work, and I appreciated the yukata provided for guests. Additionally, the complimentary bicycles made exploring the scenic nearby temples enjoyable, especially Ohara Sanzenin.

It is a bit of a trek from Kyoto, requiring an hour bus ride.

Couples seeking relaxation

We really appreciated the warm hospitality the hosts provided they even helped us extend our time in the hot bath which was a real treat. The view from our room was fine and felt like we were living in a painting every morning.

It wasn't exactly budget-friendly but definitely worth it.

Delighted by a traditional experience with an authentic atmosphere, the home-cooked meals were a highlight, especially the hotpot dinner that was hearty and satisfying. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, adjusting dishes to accommodate dietary preferences, while complimentary bikes made exploring the scenic surroundings enjoyable. However, the location required a bit of travel, and the shared bathroom facilities felt limited during peak times. The noise from the surrounding area was occasionally disruptive, making sleep somewhat challenging.

The hot shared onsen was amazing, and the homemade Yosenabe dinner was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. However, the shared bathroom setup can be a bit challenging during peak times. I'd definitely stay here again!

The couple managing this place are super friendly. The hot shared onsen was such a nice touch after a day of exploring the mountains! Plus, the view from my room was nothing short of beautiful.
