Typical Japanese room accommodation. We had a lot of space. It was walking distance from Kyoto station. The shared bath was great.

Clean, minimal and efficient. It was our first stay at a Ryokan so we enjoyed the public bath experience. Compared to other more expensive ryokans you don’t get the full shebang of services (meal included, futon beds folded away by staff) but Azumaya is definitely good quality for the money you pay.

A bit far out from the “historical”/ more central Kyoto. We had to either take buses or cabs to get around.

Very comfortable traditional feeling Ryokan. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very nice views from room and rooftop garden. Clean and cosy room. Fantastic Location, if you don’t mind walking everything is reachable.

There not much I didn’t like. However I would have liked some options for breakfast as it was hard to find something to eat in the morning. I also stayed in a room with a private bathroom which was great.

The staff were really nice and helpful. Was in a pretty good location had multiple bus stops in the area. The public bath was dated but very clean. Would stay here again for sure especially for the experience!

The location was near the station, you could reach it by foot. The staff was friendly and helpful in everything.

The only problem is that, if you take a room with no bathroom, the only possibility would be to use the public bathroom...

I really appreciated the included bath house which I went to every day during my stay. The location was also excellent, close to Kyoto Station and about 30mins walk from the downtown area.

Great spot, not far from the station, across from a UNESCO site, it's wonderful.

The beds could be a little more comfortable.. but they were also quite fine.

Bathroom very small

Very spacious (10 kyu) tatami room with ample space for futon and for opening suitcases. Comfortable futon. Excellent location for those wanting to visit Hongan-ji jinja and the Ryukoku Museum. Beautiful views of Hongan-ji across the road.

The building is generally looking a bit tired and dated. The Shower/Bath/Toilet module was a bit on the small side. Lack of tea facilities in-room is very unusual for a Ryokan. The bath in the onsite bathhouse was comparatively cold for a typical Ryokan (perhaps 38 degrees) and did not appear to be continuously spring-fed.
