My father and I stayed at Ishibekoji Muan on his first visit to Kyoto, and Shin went out of her way to make our stay wonderful. Whether it was dinner reservations, taxi bookings or hunting down sake glasses that I admired, she made it all happen effortlessly for us. The property itself is immaculate and elegant, and comfortable to boot. A slice of hospitality heaven in historic Kyoto!

Exquisite experience

We had an incredible experience at this beautiful ryokan: private, serene & calm: the kind of Kyoto experience we were hoping for. The futons/pillows/linens were very comfortable, & the bathroom was beautiful. The room was filled with thoughtful amenities: green tea, Nespresso pods, rice crackers, soaking salts for the bath, etc. The staff took such good care of us & made us feel so cared for. They helped us with dinner reservations, made wonderful recommendations for meals & bars, & accepted our luggage for an early arrival - all of which helped to make our stay stress-free. We had the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was delicious. We recommend this hotel without reserve & can't wait to come back.

Our stay at ishebekoji MUAN was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. They were genuinely kind, attentive, and eager to help. They went above and beyond, offering delicious (and less touristy) restaurant recommendations and ensuring every part of our stay was seamless. The hotel itself is tucked away on one of Kyoto’s most private and picturesque walking streets, lined with traditional inns and beautiful old structures. It feels like stepping into another world, quiet, elegant, and deeply rooted in tradition. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with high-quality amenities and a traditional bathtub. The in-room Japanese breakfast was an unforgettable highlight, beautifully prepared, seasonal, and unlike anything we’ve experienced elsewhere. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else in Kyoto. This is a truly exceptional boutique hotel that captures the essence of Japanese hospitality. Highly recommended.
