Kyoto Nanzenji Gaden Ryokan Yachiyo/Kyoto Inn,Hotel is located near the Nanzenji Temple in the Gion-Higashiyama area of Kyoto. It is just a short walk along a lane from the famous Nanzenji Temple. You will notice the Kyoto Garden Ryokan Yachiyo very easily from a big paper lantern in front of the Ryokan.
Once you crossed through the gateway into the Ryokan, you have now entered a landscaped space filled with seasonal flowers. Kyoto Garden Ryokan Yachiyo is a small hotel where the tradition of Japan has been succeeded to. Therefore, there is no rooms of the same environment. Each rooms describes an original environment.
There are two types of buildings for accommodations at Kyoto Gaden Ryokan Yachiyo, one is the The "HONKAN" Main Building(Year Hotel Built:1890,two-storied wooden building), the main and older building, and the other is The "BEKKAN" Annex Building, (Year Hotel Built: 1994.second floor)a newer building.
From the restaurant and The "HONKAN" Main Building-Traditional Japanese style guest rooms, you can enjoy look upon beautiful Japanese gardens created by the master landscape designer OGAWA JIHEI, as well as view the Higashiyama mountains, which dramatically change according to the season. In all areas of the Ryokan, you will experience the quaint atmosphere and charm of Kyoto.
When you arrive at a Ryokan, Ryokan staff will call out Nakai-san, welcoming you. As nobody is supposed to walk inside of Ryokan building with shoes, please remove your shoes at the entrance. You will be supplied with slippers. After you check in, a Ryokan staff will take you to your guest room.
The "HONKAN" main Building and The "BEKKAN" Annex Building guest room's interiors are always in the traditional Japanese style, with Tatami mat flooring. Tatami mats are in 2 different sizes, Kyouma (Kyoto size), and Edoma (Tokyo size), and they also determine the dimensions of the rooms. Please don't step on the tatami floor with your slippers, please remove your slippers first.
Let's see what you can experience in a Ryokan in Kyoto. [ KIMONO ] The Kimono represents traditional clothing of Japan.
In a Ryokan, the hard working staff are mostly dressed in traditional Japanese wear or a Kimono. Not only the staff, but Yukata (Kimono-like robe) is offered to accommodating guests as well. Since the war, western customs have influenced Japan greatly and daily life has drastically changed for most people in Japan. Even in Kyoto, where much effort is put into preserving the culture and old ways of life, western culture influences were too great. However, there are some occupations as Kyoto prospers in the industry of traditional arts, where you can see traditional Japanese Kimono worn. One of them of which is a Ryokan.
You can find the atmosphere of what Japan looked and felt like before the western influences spread. One step inside, and you can find all the staff from the managers to the maids, dressed in traditional Japanese wear. Even the accommodating guests can be seen wearing Yukata and enjoying a relaxing time. This is one of many attractions of staying in a Ryokan.
[ WASHITSU ] Traditional Japanese Interior
The architecture of Japan. You can enjoy the slow, subtle changes of every season through the structures of old Japan. For example, as the vibrant greenery of the bamboo shimmers as it was set in beginning of the year, the faded imperfection of it at the end of the year expresses, what the Japanese call wabi sabi (the art of finding beauty in imperfection and profundity in nature, of accepting the natural cycle of growth, decay, and death).
The sweet scent of the Tatami rooms may ease your soul, the soft glisten of light on the other side of the Shōji (paper door). The imperfectly placed flower on the display, all produce the delicate beauty of Japanese culture. You can kick back, relax and enjoy a rejuvenating experience. One foreign custom you can definitely get used to.
