Just a 30-minute car ride from Kyoto Station. The view from the open-air bath is amazing. This is a brilliant ryokan (Japanese-style hotel) with cherry-blossoms and wild azalea in the spring, firefly on a cool-summer's evening, autumn's red leaves and in winter, snow can be seen whilst enjoying the pot-dishes. This ryokan offers plans without dinner, but asks guests to be aware that because of its remote location deep in the mountains, there are no restaurants in the surrounding area. The ryokan can later accept separate requests for meals; however initially booking the plan including breakfast and dinner is recommended as it is a better value.
Guests must contact the lodge before 18:00 on their day of arrival. Guests who do not make contact prior to 19:00 will not receive an evening meal.
Breakfast will be served in the restaurant or banquet halls.

One of the most amazing experiences of my life. From the moment we got off the bus the staff looked after every aspect of our stay; they were even waiting for us at the bus stop! We both enjoyed the hot baths at the ryokan; we had them to ourselves. After

We stayed in Momijiya for two nights and were actually surprised at the establishment in a positive way. First of all, we stayed at the main building, and to clear up some misunderstandings from the negative reviews we will provide a quick summary. Food:

Second time here. First time was much better. They changed the onsen since. Now there are only 2 small baths which each hold 3 people maximum. If you want to use the larger bath, (which I think we previously had free access to), now you have to pay 25

Momijiya was wonderful. Me and my wife stayed for 4 nights in the last week of May. Bus transfers from Hanazono station were always on time. Easy to get to the Bamboo Forest, Niinna-ji and Ryoan-ji. The nearest temple, jingo-ji, was a short walk away, and

This was my first onsen experience - and wow was it amazing. Outstanding service! I would recommend signing up for the 45 minute couples private onsen experience - it was well worth it. My only complaint is the public onsen is a bit small.

The perfect first-time ryokan experience. Located deep in the mountains we saw snow fall, and the Japanese-style room was lovely. Slept like a rock. The kaiseki dinner was fit for a king and breakfast was also a great experience. The only thing is that it'

This ryokan is located up in the mountain. There is a footpath get to the river. We enjoyed the morning run along the river and small bridges which connected to few temples. A very subtle and zen experience!! If you are looking for something fancy this may

This Ryokan is set beautifully at Takao. Great view from the room, though the room is slightly date worn. Dinner and breakfast portion was both huge. The dining hall seems a bit boring with its florescent lighting. But in the morning, it has a nice view of

Lovely ryokan out of the centre of kyoto but close to the bamboo forest. Service was attentive, courteous and friendly. Shuttle service was excellent and food was excellent. Great choice for our honeymoon!

If you are looking for a nice and quiet Ryokan/hotel the Momijiya Honkan is the place. While it is a challenge to figure the correct bus to the ryokan we eventually figured it out (hint: take the #8 or the JR blue line bus toward Takao) From the very momen
