Everything was good
Everything was good. Staffs were so friendly and kind, and they tried to explain everything to make me feel comfy. The room we stayed was newly renovated (or they made them new building, I am not sure) so clean and the food (dinner and breakfast which I booked) was very healthy and delicious. And the public bath was really good. We didn’t need to take a shower separately. Overall, it was great pleasure to stay here.

Quiet and traditional charm
This is a charming and authentic Japanese inn. The only beds are futon mats on a tatami floor and the service is extremely attentive. The breakfast is a major meal that we highly recommend, it is beautiful and all the guest go down to breakfatsbwearing the traditional vacation robes that they provide in the rooms. Overall, we had a great time. It is far from the city center, so it is good for people looking for a glimpse of a quieter neighborhood at the foot of the hills.

Surrounded by zen
I absolutely loved staying at Nenrimbo! Especially the customer service and hospitality made me feel welcomed and special. I arrived after 8pm and had to take a cab ( a few minutes away ) to go to a nearby convenience store as the hotel is located in a little bit remote area and it’s dark around. But for those who are looking for a place to regain inner zen and be mindful, this is THE place to be. I’ll certainly be staying here again on weekends.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We took a taxi from our first hotel to reach here as was a bit far from the city. It has a very beautiful garden, we got a room with the garden mountain view, was just amazing. It is very quiet so we had some peaceful time. We stayed for a day, the time frame they have 3pm -10am might be a short for a day trip, but we were ok about that. The main feature was their dinner and breakfast, which I recommend to experience! It was grand and so unique. If you are up for Japanese experience it is a must!

Great stay In Kyoto
The ryokan was amazing, first time to stay. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The only downside of it. Would be the fact that it’s far away front kyoto station. Making moving around Kyoto a bit difficult. Only means of transportation would be either Taxi from the hotel or you can take the bus number 6 that comes every 30-60 minutes and the station is very close to the hotel. Their onsen was also very clean and nice.
