Arashiyama Benkei

“Loved the zen vibe and staff was so friendly. Really got a feel for a traditional Japanese inn. The private onsen was partially outside so you could look out to the stars”

“Both the dinner and breakfast was delicious and exceeded expectations. The staff was amazing and kind about letting us store our luggage. Amazing experience!!! Thank you!!!”

“All good . . . .”

“This ryokan was phenomenal! Talk about luxury, it was worth every penny. I wish we had been able to spend more than one night. We booked a room with a private bath because my husband wasn't keen on public onsen and I have a small tattoo which was not allowed per guidelines. The windows opened in the private bath and looked out on the courtyard garden which was gorgeous! The futons were more comfortable than a regular hotel bed. While dinner was not included, it was a fabulous experience and the food was to die for. So luxurious and the perfect amount considering it was 10 courses. Would highly recommend.”
