Good breakfast and very clean.
The pillows were a bit too firm for my liking.

Location is very nice and secluded. The staff and facilities are great
Bathhouse is a little small, but it is not very busy.

The grounds were beautiful and the staff was very friendly.
We weren't allowed to use the public bath because we have tattoos. Plus whatever cleaner they used in the room made our allergies flare up pretty badly.

Fantastic mountainside location adjacent to the lake and temples. Simple clean onsen and super friendly staff. Enjoyed the classic amenities.
We weren't able to try their food, sadly.

A marvelous Oasis in a scenic corner of Kyoto. I first saw the hotel as I was cycling around Kyoto, and modified my trip so that I could spend my last night near Kyoto here. Large western style room, but wonderful Zen like grounds and public spaces. I used the courtyard as a very quiet place to pack my bicycle in my bag for my next phase of travel.
The river and it's scenic hills are right next door, as are various temples and some really nice restaurants.
I needed to take a taxi to get to the main station because I had a lot of bags, but that was well worth the cost as part of staying in this magical area of Kyoto.

Very Good
The property location was superb. It was located close to the train station, right at the river and near the bridge. The access to the bamboo forest was right around the corner, all the shopping was right there, the rickshaw (which I highly recommend) was next to the hotel. There were gardens, river walk, river boat ride options, monkey park and this really cool Buddha statue garden all within a short walking distance. The hotel staff was very accommodating.
Our garden view was gorgeous with mature maple trees with the fall colors. I can’t say enough about this property.
The only complaint about the property was the smoke smell. On a couple days the lobby had major cigarette smell. I’m just sensitive to it. Other than that the property was amazing!!

My sister and i checked in on september 6th. First and foremost I must exclaim the Ranzan had an amazing staff! Hello to Rika!! Service was above and beyond.
Loved the breakfast served at Ranzan, we made a reservation the day before breakfast.
The location of hotel is unbeatable.
Aside from everything else being amazing, the light in the room was a little bit too fluorescent for me

Near the hotel there are beautiful temples, an art museum, a bamboo forest, a kimono forest, Japanese macaques in the forest, a street with souvenirs and delicious food.

Location is great. Staff is friendly
The hotel turned out to be very old. After I took a bath, the floor was flooded with water. The bed, and super thin pillow on it, were very uncomfortable, I slept poorly. The view was completely different from the picture

The location was excellent right by the river and just few blocks from all major attractions such as the bamboo forests, temple, and the main street. The property while old was well maintained especially the garden and tatami rooms.
The food was just not that good despite having all its formality of onsen meal so if having the best onsen meal is the goal, this isn't it. We had the traditional tatami room which was lovely looking into the garden but I don't recommend any western rooms as they looked so dated and hardly an experience, especially for Arashiyama.
Thank you for your information!
