Hanayashiki Ukifune-en

I'd like to first thank the staff. Due to the recent typhoon causing transport issues, they were able to kindly arrange extended stay for us. And they also patiently helped us sort through our call to the next hotel to change check-in dates. Public/private bathrooms, breakfast and bedding I found all to be good. Our room had a good view from the window. The location is good if you are looking for somewhere to relax, away from the busier cities. We went to a couple of small tea houses and cafe/restaurants around the area. Uji has a local matcha factory, so I recommend at least trying one of the tea shops if you are interested. In Uji, it's quiet but the locals in restaurants seem quite happy for friendly chats.

A beautiful location. Rriver view is outstanding! During cherry blossoms, it should be absolutely magical. The room is a great combination of a traditional ryokan and a modern hotel, has everything you need for comfortable stay. The staff is friendly and helpful. We also were allowed to leave our luggage before check-in. We visited public baths and liked it.

- located on the beautiful grounds of Uji - a lovely experience in a traditional house with futons & yakatas - kaiseki dinner & Japanese breakfast was great - onsen was great

We had a great stay at this ryokan. It’s super clean and confortable. It’s located in a good position. We recommend it! Traditional onsen was the cherry on top!

Private bath with river view on the junior suite.
