Gion, Higashiyama [Kyoto Prefecture]
Yuzuya ryokan is a traditional small boutique hotel that was remodeled in 2005 from an old house under the concept of "Japanese Auberge". This small ryokan with only 8 rooms is admired by the guests for nice blends of modern and traditional design.
The name "Yuzu" means citron in Japanese. A delicate fragrance of citron fills the air of the Ryokan. Yuzus are floated in the common bath providing a relaxing effect. They are also used in a captivating creative cuisine adding rich flavors.
Yuzuya ryokan is located just next to Yasaka Shrine. Few other inns can match this location that allows you to explore Kyoto's beauty just outside your doorsteps, such as Gion and Kiyomizu temple.
