Karasuma Hotels with Hot Tubs

"Molto interessante l'insieme tradizionale, anche se la colazione giapponese è più divertente che gustosa, e restare senza futon, cioè senza possibilità di sdraiarsi fino alle 20 non è il massimo. In compenso, le terme interne all'aperto ed al chiuso, comprese nel prezzo, meritano, così come il parcheggio proprio sulla porta dell'albergo. Vale l'esperienza."

"This if the first Ryokan I have ever stayed in so I have nothing to compare my experience to besides one of the other hotels I stayed at while visiting Japan for the first time. With that in mind, I can definitely say that the Matsui Bekkan Hanakanzashi was my favorite stay by far. The entire experience was completely different from a normal hotel.

"All around great facility. Excellent staff."

"I liked the traditional feel and convenient location of the Ryokan."

"All the staff were very helpful and polite. Ms Hiroko especially went above and behond to assist us and we appreciate it. Beds were comfortable and traditional japanese breakfast was excellent"

"Overall this was good value. Rooms are small but well designed. Bed was a decent size with enough room for two pillows side by side (although unfortunately only one pillow is provided). Some people don't understand the concept of being quiet in the sleeping area despite the various signs advising them of it; whilst this isn't the hotel's fault, I think the curtains that separate the rooms serve very little use other than preventing others seeing into the room. In other similar hotels I've seen...

"Very good location & great staff! Room was extremely comfortable as well. "

"As mentioned in the other reviews, this is a traditional Ryokan. They don't speak much English and you need to respect their rules, but the staff is all very hospitable and gave us a good understanding of how traditional Japanese travel. At the same time, they had most of the amenities of a three-star hotel. "
