If you want to have a quiet night at Uji, this hotel will be a good choice. It’s next to the Uji river and has a walkable distance to Byodoin and Uji shrine. Wish we have time to stay here for few more nights next time.

Beautiful located by the river with a great view. Our particular room we got was a nice room with a gorgeous view but I don’t this all rooms have been remodeled to be as nice as ours. Also, the hallways and some common area could use some update. Breakfast was great for someone who loves Japanese breakfast. No other options on that. Don’t miss out on a restaurant that the hotel is attached to called Satori, amazing course meal. Would stay there again.

Beautiful location on the banks of the Uji River. The walks we took along the river with the lovely scenery and autumn leaves were truly memorable. Room was spacious, clean, comfortable and functional, and the balcony overlooking the river was wonderful. Really appreciate the hot bath after a cold day out. Location is near many places of attractions including the Byodoin Temple and shopping streets. Uji station is about 2km walk away. Would suggest posting heavy luggages to the hotel; we struggled with our luggage as we walked from Uji station to the hotel. Hotel staff were courteous and super helpful. They efficiently helped to post our luggages to our next hotel in Tokyo, arriving there the next day. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay at this beautiful ryokan. The surroundings are so gorgeous and peaceful being right next to the river. Our room was comfortable for our family of 4, and we greatly enjoyed the stunning and delicious kaiseki dinner. Email them directly to arrange the dinner as they also provided a kid version for our younger son. They were very accommodating and responsive to all our needs. I definitely hope we can return again!
