5 Luxury Ryokans in Kyoto

Mr.Tokyo on Instagram: "If you want a real local experience in Japan, skip the hotels and stay at a RYOKAN. This is a luxury ryokan with over 100 years of history. Each room has its own private onsen, and there are three additional private baths you can use as well. So even if you have tattoos, you can enjoy the hot springs without any problems. The food, the onsen, and the service are all top-quality. I highly recommend staying here. If you want more information, type “RYOKAN” in the comments!
