Seikoro Ryokan  

In the heart of Kyoto, a short stroll from Kawaramachi Street and minutes from Sanjusangen‑do Temple. Pontocho Alley, Kiyomizu Temple, Kyoto National Museum and the Gion area are all within easy walking distance, making this a prime spot for sightseeing and night wandering.

This traditional ryokan/guest house keeps things classic and comfortable with 19 air‑conditioned rooms. Expect flat‑screen TVs, phones with free local calls, safes, and private bathrooms that feature deep soaking bathtubs and separate showers. Rooms can be treated to in‑room massages, and many look out over a quiet garden—simple, polished, and quietly refined.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi and concierge services keep plans effortless. Unwind in the massage and wellness facilities, grab essentials from on‑site shops, or relax in the garden. Room service is available during limited hours, and full breakfast is served each morning for a fee. Free self‑parking is offered onsite.

Useful extras for work trips include complimentary wireless internet, luggage storage, a safe‑deposit box at the front desk, and an on‑site conference hall. An elevator and a 24‑hour front desk make comings and goings easy.

There’s an on‑site restaurant serving local Japanese cuisine and regional flavors. Room service is available during limited hours, and a full breakfast is offered daily (7:00–8:30) for a fee—perfect fuel for a day of temple hopping.
