Yoshikawa small luxury inn Kyoto & Tempura
Kyoto Prefecture／Kyoto, Nakagyo WardSavor a Kyoto-style kaiseki course centered on tempura at this 7-room sukiya-style Accommodation with a Taisho-era romantic atmosphere.
Yoshikawa was established as a culinary Ryokan after World War II, located near the Kyoto Imperial Palace in the heart of Rakuchu. The garden, known as "Taikyoen," is said to have been designed by Enshu Kobori and retains some features from the Edo period. The Sukiya-style building, once a residence of a wealthy merchant, offers an atmosphere of tranquility and charm that feels far removed from the bustling city. We hope you will enjoy your stay at our culinary Ryokan, where you can relax and feel at home.
The meals, service, Room, and the charming hostess all reflected the wonderful attitude of the management. I will visit again. Thank you so much! P.S. The meals—both dinner and breakfast—were absolutely delicious!
大日本帝国海軍中佐 1/13/2026Stayed with family for the first time in central Kyoto. The hospitality from arrival to departure was exceptional, offering a true Kyoto experience. The accommodation is not large, but the atmosphere makes you realize that size doesn't matter. The room is spacious enough and provides a traditional Japanese ambiance. Meals, drinks, and even tea were delicious and luxurious, leaving the whole family very satisfied. Although I usually don't revisit places, this is one accommodation I would love to return to again.

Introduction of the Accommodation
Meals
Savor a carefully curated seasonal kaiseki meal by our head chef. Our tempura, fried in health-conscious and eco-friendly cottonseed oil, offers a delicate flavor that enhances the natural taste of the ingredients, delighting our guests. Additionally, enjoy freshly fried tempura at our small tempura counter, converted from part of a traditional tea room.
The accommodation offers a total of 7 rooms. Originally a residence built in the early Taisho period, this sukiya-style building features 3 rooms facing the main garden and 4 rooms facing the courtyard garden, each uniquely designed. Step inside from the entrance, and you will be immersed in the charm of traditional Japan.
The "Main Garden," which occupies one-third of the property, was designed by Kobori Enshu, a prominent garden designer from the late Edo period. You can enjoy watching koi fish from the veranda of the hall or take a stroll after your meal.
