My wife and I spent 5 nights here, and had two Kaiseki evening meals, and breakfast each morning. We agree that the experience was the highlight of our two weeks’ time in Japan. We stayed in one of the smaller room (Yuki) but it was sufficiently large and comfortable to lay out our suitcases and still move around without difficulty. Our room has a private half bath. There were three private baths (ofuro) - some that are large enough for two to wash and then soak together. We were asked each day when we wanted to use the ofuro, and had no difficulty spending an extended time enjoying the experience of the ofuro - usually before dinner. We have stayed at other ryokans, but this was the most enjoyable. The staff were attentive without being intrusive. The smallest request was remembered and acted upon. The breakfasts were varied and delicious, and the Kaiseki, prepared by the owner/chef, were works of art as well as being delicious. Some of the staff are European, who clearly love Japanese culture. They were able to explain subtleties that we might have missed had we stayed in a ryokan without fluent English speakers. We are already planning our return to Kyoto in large part because we want to enjoy again the hospitality of Izuyasu. Recommend making reservations for dinner since seating is limited.
