Ryokan Uemura – A Favorite for Families in Kyoto

“My experience in the Japanese-Style Twin Room with Shared Bathroom was simply good. The room featured tatami mats, shoji screens, and cozy futons that provided a beautiful blend of tradition and comfort. I loved how the room was equipped with a small nook for washing up, making it easy to get ready without disrupting other guests.” view full review

“Sleeping on a futon for the first time was surprisingly restful! The futons were laid out every night on the tatami mat, and even as someone over 6 feet tall, I found them to be perfectly comfortable. I appreciated how well they accommodated taller guests and provided a genuine Japanese sleeping experience.” view full review

“The shared bathrooms were a unique aspect of my stay that I thoroughly enjoyed. Despite only accommodating one person at a time, the setup allowed for privacy and cleanliness. Plus, the charming design of the bathroom added to the overall traditional atmosphere of the ryokan.” view full review

“Though the room had a television with limited programming, I found myself drawn to the peaceful ambiance and beautiful surroundings instead. With quiet evenings and the soft sounds of nature outside my window, the experience felt less about media distraction and more about soaking in the calming atmosphere of Kyoto.” view full review
