We were so close to transport, dining and shopping yet we felt like we were a world away in a traditional ryokan with beautiful breakfasts and futon bedding with rice paper walls blocking out the cold and street traffic noise. Front desk assistance was kind, friendly and helpful. The onsen experience was very clean and relaxing.

the location was great and the stuff very nice but the rules are too difficult so the check in at 4pm and the check out 10 am so they deduct 6 hours its the longest period I ever seen and also you can't keep your luggage after 3 pm otherwise they will charge per piece.

Traditional Interior, Modern Building, Central Loc

Clean, conveniently located ryokan in a modern building across the street from Kyoto station whose interior nonetheless feels like an old-style building due to the way the rooms are constructed with traditional materials. The breakfast was great, the public baths were nice, and while it doesn't quite have the character of a genuine historical ryokan, it has a lot more than any other modern-built ones I've seen, as well all the advantages of a modern building. I would recommend Matsumoto Ryokan to anyone wanting a traditional-style stay with modern convenience in a transit-connected location.

Enjoyed my stay

Enjoyed my one night stay. Location is great, near the train station, which also has many shopping and dining options. It is not a non-smoking establishment so I was worried that the room would smell of cigarette smoke, but I was pleasantly surprised to not detect this at all. Stayed in a traditional Japanese style room but the hotel also offers western bed style rooms. The futon was not very comfortable to sleep on, though I understand that most hotel mattresses in Japan are not, by western standards. Be aware that the hotel charges a fee if you want them to hold your luggage past 3 pm after checking out.

スタッフが親切で良かった。古いながらもきれいでした。大浴場も素晴らしかった。しかし大浴場が地下1階にありますが、入り口にセキュリティ的な暗証番号等がなかったのが防犯上不安を覚えました。地下にスタッフがいないので男女となりに大浴場があるので1人でしたのでちょっと心配でした。タオルがかなりパサパサで薄かったのが残念。大浴場があるならタオルは気軽に新しいのを使えたらなお良かったです。立地は最高に良いです。
