Malcolm
Best meal of my life. Superb. Setting is gorgeous and authentic. Nearby hills, shrines, etc are gorgeous. A perfect getaway.
Yihong
Everything from room to food was perfect. Very nice staff. Would 100% recommend.
Devna
The most hospitable staff and a very serene, clean and welcoming property.
Qian
We had a wonderful experience staying at the hotel. The staff were friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout our stay. I accidentally lost one of my earrings in the hot spring shower area, and the staff went above and beyond to help me locate it. Their kindness and assistance were greatly appreciated.
Margot
A stunning and unforgettable experience. The staff is hospitable, the views are breathtaking, and it is a perfect respite from the bustling city.
Stephanie
Exceptionally nice staff. Beautiful onsen and most of the time had the whole onsen to myself, and it’s limited to 4 people at a time at max. The breakfast was amazing. Really nice garden view from our room which is shared with other rooms but felt private. There are also lots of shops and temples to explore in Ohara that are much less crowded than Kyoto.
Juan Pablo
The place is lovely, and the staff is wonderful.
I’m just not sure it’s worth the trip up to Ohara…

Sarah
The nicest place I have ever stayed at. The onsen was incredible and the area is so beautiful and peaceful. Amazing food as well.
Eunjin
Such a beautiful area and amazing ryokan hotel. Staffs are so attentive, food was great. Also not as far from kyoto city as i thought. 30-40mins from taxi and bit more with the bus/ the bus station was just 10mins walk from the hotel. I would love to go back in autumn time.
Austin
Incredible views , serene , amazing food. All you could ask for after trekking around Japan’s cities . The perfect change of pace with beauty around every corner . 10/10
Victoria
We had a wonderful experience here, with the opportunity to stay in both the Kaede and Ochai rooms. The grounds were absolutely beautiful and the staff was kind and attentive to every detail of our stay. This was the best experience in lodging that we’ve ever had the pleasure to be apart of.
Gabriel
Magical, simply magical. That is the only way to describe this place. From arrival to egress, the people there made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Breakfast and Dinner were served everyday and you do NOT want to miss them. I'm a large guy and I thought I wouldn't get full, I was wrong. The Ryokan is immaculate and the grounds are spectacular. We had planned to spend a day in Kyoto but we spend so much time wandering around the shrines, shops, cafes, and coffee houses we never made it into the city. This place was perfect. I can't recommend it enough!
John Edward
Food and view was amazing. I recommend the Sakura room with the private onsen
Patrick
Good but you’re really just paying for the dinner and breakfast
Daphne
Amazing experience from start to finish. An extremely authentic and comfortable stay with top notch food, impeccable service from the owners and their staff! An hour out from the city, but the bus ride is an incredibly scenic route once you’re out the bustling chaos. Would love, love, love to stay here again in the future!
Kelly
we had an amazing time at Seryo!! the staff was immediately incredibly welcoming and showed us all the amenities and our wonderful room with a perfect garden view. the food was incredible and they even adjusted everything to be vegan for me!! we unfortunately had a less than desired experience at a different ryokan right after our perfect experience at Seryo which just affirmed that Seryo was the right decision!! highly recommend and would love to go back again in the future!

This place has amazing service and food, the staff was very accommodating.
Pauleen
This is by far the most beautiful and relaxing hotel we stayed at while in Japan. Highly recommend this experience. The pictures do not do this place justice. It’s stunning and so well kept.
The Hot Pot, Shabu Shabu dinner was also the best meal we had during our entire trip!

We had a great stay at Seryo for one night. The service and food were outstanding. The only downside is that the rooms can get cold quickly, but the futon and comforters were very warm and there’s also AC if you need it. Just a heads-up: this is a traditional Japanese inn with public baths separated by gender, and bathing is done nude.

The highlight of staying in Kyoto. This ryokan is going towards more of the countryside of Kyoto in Ohara but it is definitely worth spending a couple nights in. Yes it is farther away from the main tourist temples but honestly it is so much nicer staying here away from all the tourists and finding hidden gems within Ohara where there are hardly any tourists. The rooms themselves were so serene and peaceful. The onsens always feel amazing especially after long days exploring temples and gardens. The staff and service were beyond accommodating and friendly. My wife had dietary restrictions and they were more than happy to accommodate. Breakfast and dinner is included with each night which is so lovely not having to worry about what to eat for dinner when it is already provided. Our room had a nice view of the garden and koi fish swimming around. I can't say enough about how great it was to stay here and I would highly recommend to anyone I know to stay here. You will receive a unique Kyoto experience from everyone else if you stay here and will never forget! Thank you to the staff, you have made our visit to Japan incredibly memorable.

Wow! What an incredible stay! Probably the best experience of our entire trip to Japan. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, even showing us different local matcha varieties used during the meals. If you are visiting Kyoto on your trip to Japan, I would HIGHLY recommend staying at this property for the full Ryokan experience, equipped with a beautiful Onsen, Yukata, and local shrines in Ohara. 10/10

This Ryokan is exceptional, the baths, the food, the property, and the kind staff! It was such a restful and peaceful time and a great way to tap into nature before heading back to the busy city.

Authentic Japanese experience
This hotel is actually far from Kyoto, so be prepared for a very long ride from either the train station or airport. The food was excellent and the room was very basic. Comfortable, but no frills. For the price I was expecting something a little nicer. If you want an authentic Japanese experience, this place is perfect.

The pictures looked better than the actual product, but we were there in winter….

The ryokan was absolutely wonderful. It was authentic Japan culture and style in an a breathtaking location. The food was an elaborate 11 coarse meal that was delicious Japanese cuisine. The whole stay was a a glimpse of Japanese culture and tradition. I highly recommend for the cultural tourist.

One of the best stays I had in Japan. I would recommend it to everyone and would gladly visit this Ryokan again. All of the staff members are incredibly kind and attentive. Their hospitality and service were thoughtful and attentive. Most impressively, I left my coat in the closet, and they kindly shipped it to Osaka for me. I am truly grateful for their thoughtfulness! The room was very comfortable, and the outdoor hot springs were absolutely amazing. The Kaiseki dinner and breakfast were both incredibly delicious. Thank you for giving me such wonderful memories to cherish.

We had a beautiful, relaxing, and very special few nights at Seryo - the property is gorgeous and spotless; the staff is friendly and accommodating; and the food was out-of-this-world! It’s obvious the owner and everyone at Seryo put a lot of love and care into both Seryo and the guest experience. We can’t wait to tell all our friends and family to come to Kyoto and stay at Seryo.

The property has some of the most stunning views and the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful. The food was magnificent and me and my wife loved our private onsen. It gave a much needed break from an otherwise busy vacation.

If you are looking for a traditional ryokan and a more remote area, this is the perfect place. Although it is about 45 mins from Kyoto train station, you will not be disappointed. Upon arrival, we were immediatelty greeted by the staff and welcomed with matcha tea while our bags were taken to our rooms. The rooms were very clean and beautifully decorated. Our room featured a private onsen overlooking the mountains. It was absolutely breathtaking. Both dinner and breakfast were amazing! We stayed one night and spent the next morning walking around the small town which was quite quaint and adorable. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful night in an authentic Ryokan
Justin
A wonderful experience. The property is beautiful, the staff are so attentive to your every need and the meal service was Michelin star worthy. A little out of the way to get to but well worth the trek. Would absolutely recommend to anyone considering this property
Blair
The property and staff were impeccable! We had a beautiful room with a private onsen and couldn’t be happier. The sakura were blooming right outside our window and the staff were extremely friendly and kind. 10/10
Tanaya
The property was beautiful. The bath, gardens, and room were all amazing. The meal offered was really good and they give you a welcome drink and snack. There are shops, places to eat, and shrines nearby with an opportunity to walk to a waterfall. The staff was very nice and attentive. Free shuttle to the nearest bus station. Amazing and peaceful stay. I highly recommend staying here.

Everything at this Ryokan was top notch. Excellent service, delicious traditional meals and immaculately clean facilities. The staff is very kind and helpful- they speak English well and have all answers to your questions. Onsen is beautiful and very clean
Kevin
Staff was wonderful, room was amazing just what you picture when booking a Ryokan. Our room had a private outdoor bath overlooking the mountains. Worth every penny
Brandy
Beautiful remote location with a stunning property and close to a shrine. Excellent meals. Staff were incredibly kind. A little hard to get to, I suggest a taxi. We had the kaede suite with private hot spring, highly recommend. Beautiful private garden. I do wish the room was warmer in the morning and had more insulation.
Alexis
This was truly a 10/10 experience. The staff were so incredibly kind and helpful, the space with the private outdoor onsen was picture-perfect, and the food was the best we had in our two weeks in Japan! We were truly blown away with our experience from beginning to end.

Property was a little run down
COURTNEY
A true gem of an experience
Loved this family-owned and operated Ryokan. The attention to detail and service was impeccable. The meals were an experience onto their own - absolutely delightful and delicious. Wonderful location to hike and visit temples near by. Secluded and serene location in the mountains.
A little hard to get to from Kyoto, but worth the effort. Wish we had stayed longer.

15/10 stars!
I cannot recommend this place enough! It was so relaxing, beautiful, and the staff was incredible! They offer traditional and local breakfast and dinner that rivaled Michelin star restaurants! It was our first Ryokan experience but definitely will not be our last now. Such an incredible place!
