Breakfast was great, Onsen was very sufficient and had private and public areas which I appreciate.
Guests on our floor were loud and the walls are thin, but hey, some tourists are like that and it’s not really the hotel’s fault. Everything else was perfect.

This is a traditional ryokan with onsen facilities, and we chose the half-board option. The kaiseki dinner was excellent—beautifully presented and far more food than anyone could realistically finish. Breakfast was also outstanding, with the choice of either a Japanese or Western-style meal.

The resort is slightly removed from the main tourist area of Arashiyama, located across the river and close to one of the train stations, though not the most central lines. This does make it feel quieter, but also means a bit more travel if you're exploring the area.

The staff were wonderful—warm, attentive, and helpful throughout our stay. The onsen facilities were extremely relaxing and perfect after a full day of hiking.

Overall, a classic ryokan experience with exceptional meals and hospitality.

In Japan, they don't provide room cleaning services every day when a guest is in the hotel, if you need the garbage taken out, or new towels/ sheets, you put a sign on the door.

They had 5 private Onsen's that are open 24/7 and are tattoo friendly. My wife and I were able to relax and have a bath together after walking 17k steps in a day.

The views around the outside of the hotel and inside are very traditional Japanese and are gorgeous.

There was maybe one mark on the wall it took me two seconds to wipe it off. I dont blame the staff for this they are very hardworking men and women. It took me less time to clean a mark than it would've taken to find someone to clean that same mark.

Never had a chance to eat breakfast or dinner at the onsen. But there was a very good selection of different places to eat within a couple of steps just outside the onsen.

The staff were incredibly friendly most of them do not speak anything other than Japanese. Use Google translate to try and learn a few phrases this will not only make them more open to wait for you to translate your questions. But it will also help make their day a little better. We are all living on this planet together a little kindness goes a long way. I had to ask for some ointment to put on a bug bite so im certain they wouldn't have taken the time to help if both my wife and i weren't being friendly towards the staff.

We took the train here it was literally just outside the property so we have no idea where the parking lot is and how the parking works here.

Bottom line is treat everyone with respect and dont except everyone to kiss your behind just because you are a customer. Read up on what an onsen and a ryokan actually are. This is not a pool and this is a spiritual place not a daycare. I saw both adults and children running around acting disrespectful towards both the staff and the facility. Yes you have to take off your shoes.

AMAZING! We were instantly wowed when we walked into the property. Free ramen at night, free ice cream, private baths and amazing amenities were icing on the cake. Super easy walk into the gorgeous river area and town center made this resort even more attractive. Beauty all around you. Walk to the famed Bamboo Grove was about 15 mins and very picturesque. My parents and friends opted for on site massage and they absolutely LOVED it. It was so cute to see the guests walking around the resort in the resort provided pajamas and kimonos. We were sad that we only booked for 1 evening. My hubby wanted to come back and stay here for a week. Loved every minute we were at the resort.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Karaksa Hotel Osaka Namba – A place I’d love to return to!
Karaksa at Osaka Namba is a hotel I would definitely come back to. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the entire place is spotless and well-kept. The room is quite spacious for Japan, especially given its convenient location near Dotonbori.

There are plenty of shopping and dining options just steps away, and I really enjoyed the sense of safety while walking around the nearby streets. The hotel also offers complimentary soft drinks, coffee, and light snacks in the lobby café — a lovely spot to relax after a long day of exploring.

Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its comfort, cleanliness, and welcoming atmosphere.

They allow guests to smoke everywhere and there is a cigarette smell everywhere; especially onsens and elevators. Rooms were dated. There was a cockroach in my room.

I had no idea what I was getting into. This is a super cool hotel if you want a true Japanese Onsen experience. You start with taking your shoes off and doning either pajamas they provide or your pick of Kimonos ( not sure if what men wear are Kimonos but nonetheless) which they also have for you. Then you head off to either a private bath ( pick the third or the 5th one if you want to be outside)or the public bath ( split for men and women). After bathing you can get a massage, have a traditional dinner or change and walk into town and see the Bamboo forest, temple, take a river boat ride or shop and eat. Plenty to do. It is on the one side of the City and the Golden Temple and the big food market is on the opposite side. To go to the Golden Temple requires you take the train that is across the street 3 stops, transfer and work your way into the opposite side of the city. Assume its an hour if you time all the trains right.

Overall, it was an awesome experience!

It's arashiyama so it is a quiet area, if you are planning to eat , eat before 5 . Luckily it's right by the station and a convenience store. If you do not speak Japanese skip, the staff treat you very poorly and are not comfortable speaking in English. When we walked over to the receptionist she did not say hello just demanded our passports. We started speaking our elementary Japanese and she lighted up. In addition the hotel charges more to foreigners try looking them up with a Japanese VPN on expedia and you'll see you can save $300 or more dollars. They really don't want forigners there just our money.

It was a very authentic Japanese experience, what an amazing treat! However, it was not very clear that you HAVE to preregister for any meals, otherwise you can not eat there. There was another pub type facility on premisis in addition to where people were eating but it was not open and we werent able to understand why? This did not take away from the experience as we were able to secure meals elsewhere- but you need to find food before 8pm as the town shuts down.The massages, private baths and public baths were absolutely outstanding and very clean. They provide robes, socks, pjs and all the tolietries you could possibly need. The staff was great and SUPER friendly even though it was very busy. They needed to rely on translation apps, we did not see any other Americans or non Japanese guests so it might be more if a local favorite which really added to the authenticity. The rooms were well above adequate, not new or pristine, but maintained very well. It was really a unique and memorable experience that we will fondly remember. Defineately wirth a visit.

The food was wonderfully traditional and quite an impressive spread. Rooms were traditional and very spacious, especially coming from Tokyo.

We were able to use the private onsens at 5 in the morning. But from what I could see, it got very crowded later in the day.

You can then easily get into Kyoto by bus or train, with the bus stop and train station just across the road/round the corner. There are lots of shops and nice restaurants nearby as well as amazing walks, shrines and other sites to see. The staff were friendly and the hotel was really clean.

Best stay of our honeymoon!

We loved our stay here! Definitely want to return to stay at this onsen. We were greeted at check in with a sweet gift for our honeymoon it was so thoughtful! We loved arashiyama and the convenience of how walkable our hotel was to both stations and the town. The beds are so comfortable the room we stayed in was spacious. We loved how traditional this hotel was tatami mat floors and all. The best part was the onsens, we both have tattoos and loved that they had 5 different private onsens to choose from. In the evening dinner-10pm it stayed pretty busy so we opted for early morning soaks and all were empty between 5-7am. Perfect way to start our day. 10/10 stay at this hotel when we come back to kyoto we plan to stay here again!
