We loved our time at Kinparo, authentic Japanese style accommodation in a great location with great access to Kyoto.

Great Location and Friendly Staff
Really nice ryokan just a minute (or less) away from the famous Nishiki market. It's also just a minute's walk away from the main Shijo street where there's plenty of departmental stores and the likes. We even walked to Gion from our hotel, and it took us only 10 - 15 mins. The staff were really professional and polite (as expected of the Japanese). They do speak a little english. The amenities and service were great too. Thoroughly enjoyed our time in Kyoto and experience of staying in a traditional ryokan.

ryokan in the best location
service staff spoke bare english but they had printed ready directions to popular attractions. Ryokan isnt the luxurious sort, gave an 'old' feeling but very, very clean. Public onsen was a great addition and very well maintained too

Great location. Traditional Japanese room.
This is a great location and home base for exploring downtown Kyoto. Just around the corner from the Fish market. And from there the covered street continues to lead to the shopping district, night life and an easy walk across the river to the Gion district. The hotel itself is clean and has the simple Japanese style. The desk staff speaks enough English to be helpful. They had us leave our room key at the front desk which was handy as our group of 4 split up. And They were friendly even when we came stumbling in late at night. They don't have parking, but do offer a discount $18/night parking at a lot 5 blocks away. Most rooms don't have their own bathroom but instead share a hallway bathroom and of course the onsen in the basement. We spent a little more to include the private bath in our room, which was a deep short tub. The tatami mat room was simple and clean. Beds are the futon mattresses which they roll out in the floor for you. Comfy enough for a couple of tired tourists. Smelled strongly of green tea (scented burner in the corner). There were cookies, tea leaves and a hot water pitcher waiting for us, which was very nice. I do wish they had the tea already made though, simply because I didn't know how much to use in the pot or what to do with our used tea leaves when we were done brewing so I made ours too bitter. We spent $230 for 1 night /5 people on a Saturday night. Though 1 member if our party got sick and couldn't come. Our room would have been the same room but $30 less expensive if booked for 4 people. The Japanese typically charge hotel rooms per person and because they roll out only the specific amount of mats, cookies, chairs, teacups that you need, it's good to be truthful about your number of guests.

시설은 오래됐지만 그래도 깨끗하다는 느낌을 줍니다. 아침저녁으로 료칸을 이용해서 편하고 너무 좋았습니다. 료칸이 있는 숙소에 비해 가격은 그리 비싼편은 아니더라구요. 아침은 사전에 미리 예약을 해야만 먹을 수 있어서 좀 아쉬웠어요. 옆건물이 바로 붙어 있어서 창문을 열 수 없어 좀 답답했지만 침구류도 다 정돈해 주시고 아주 좋았습니다.

友人と2泊しました。とにかく便利な立地です。地下鉄もバス停がも近く、ショッピングのお店や飲食店が集まっているエリアの中にあるのでなにも困りませんでした。錦小路はほぼ隣です。 純日本風の旅館のお部屋でお布団を敷いていただきました。ベッドがお好みの方には向かないと思いますが、4人一緒に泊まれるのは貴重でした。

It is an old-fashioned Japanese style hotel. The staff were very nice and the room was spacious for 4 tatami beds. The breakfast was Japanese style. It was delicious and unlike the buffet style, it was a set prepared for each of us. So it was hot and delicious. Each night when we returned to hotel, the staff had already prepared hot water for us so that we can have tea in our room. And there was a little hot spring and the basement of the hotel. We had a great time there.

편안한 가족여행
니시키시장 근처여서 편했고, 방 청결도와 직원들의 친절함도 만족스러웠습니다. 방에 창문은 없지만 답답함은 느끼지 못했습니다. 대욕장이 있어서 객실의 욕실은 사용하지 않았습니다. 조용하고 좋았어요.
