Best ryokans in Kyoto

There are various hotels in Kyoto, but if you come all the way to Kyoto, you should stay at a Kyoto-style ryokan at least once. I’ve visited several ryokans on business because I work in tourism in Kyoto. Following my visit to the Kyoto ryokan, I will introduce eight ryokans in Kyoto that I can confidently recommend.
