Kyoto Ryokan Hirashin - A traditional ryokan with indoor public bath and Japanese garden in Central Kyoto

Located in Central Kyoto's Kawaramachi district, this 3-star Kyoto hotel combines traditional ryokan elements with modern amenities. Ryokan Hirashin features rooms with tatami-mat flooring, traditional futon bedding, flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, and free toiletries. The property includes an indoor public bath, spa facilities, and a Japanese garden for guest relaxation. A sitting area with two armchairs and a coffee table occupies each room, while free WiFi extends throughout the property. Kyoto Ryokan Hirashin's location places guests 0.3 miles from Nishiki Market Shopping District and within 1 mile of major attractions like Sanjusangendo Temple and Heian Shrine. The property stands a 3-minute walk from Shijo Subway Station and 10 minutes on foot from both Shijo and Karasuma areas.

Pros

Professional concierge services, dry cleaning, and laundry facilities available on-site

Six dining establishments within 0.5 miles, including Tiger Gyoza Kaikan and Inoda Coffee Honten

Central position near cultural landmarks like Kyoto International Manga Museum (0.5 miles) and Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine (2.5 miles)

Cons

31 mile distance from Itami Airport

Traditional futon bedding may not suit all guests' preferences

“This ryokan impresses with its prime location, a short walk to Nishiki Market and subway access to Kyoto's highlights. I appreciate that guests can experience traditional Japanese breakfasts and unwind in public baths. While some may find areas needing renovation, the attentive staff and cultural immersion stand out.”
