Perfect traditional ryokan with super friendly staff. Great location close to the dining areas and Nishiki market all at walking distance. Good bath and cosy room.

I had a truly lovely stay at Matsui Honkan. The location is excellent—very convenient and close to many key attractions. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The onsen was absolutely perfect—so relaxing and well-maintained, a real highlight of my stay. I also have to mention the breakfast, which was delicious and beautifully prepared each morning. A special shout-out to the auntie who served breakfast—she was so kind, attentive, and full of warmth. I truly want to give her a super like for her wonderful service! Highly recommend this ryokan for anyone visiting Kyoto. I will definitely return!

We had a wonderfully authentic stay in this high service Japanese Ryokan. The staff were fantastic, our room was exactly as we imagined a room in a ryokan would be, the level of cleanliness and servicing of the room was exceptional and soaking in the onsen every night was a wonderful way to finish our day in fabulous Kyoto. Absolutely, definitely recommended.
