Company info

Nice to meet you, my name is Tanaka, the owner. I enjoy traveling abroad, and I really enjoy working at this Ryokan, where many foreigners stay. I am also a flower arrangement(IKEBANA) instructor, so if you are interested in flower arrangement, please do not hesitate to contact me. I hope you will stay at this ryokan for one more night. I will work hard to create an inn that will make you want to stay another night and have a very nice holiday.

Property info

It is in a quiet place on the east side of the Ninenzaka and Sanneizaka. Opening the lattice of Sangen, like a hiding place, is a green moss garden that welcomes guests. Flowers are in bloom at the entrance in all seasons such as Satsuki in spring, Tsubaki and beautiful red leaves in autumn. You can see the Yasaka Tower (Five Story Pagoda), Gion, Kodaiji, and the west mountains of Kyoto city from the terrace. The time spent gazing at the night view of the ancient city is very luxurious. If it snows or rains you can experience the beauty of Kyoto uniquely in Sangen. Sangen has two types of Japanese-style rooms. One room can accommodate up to two people. The other is a suite room that can accommodate up to four people. Of course, this suite can accommodate one person. We will do our best to give you useful information for your trip.

Neighborhood info

Kiyomizu Temple is full of a large number of tourists in the daytime, however, it is quite calm in the morning and evening. The charm of Kyoto consists of the beauty of its calm temples. Sangen is located within a 7 minute walk of Kiyomizu Temple. Because it opens at 6:00 a.m., the guests staying in Sangen can go to Kiyomizu Temple before breakfast . Moreover, in Ninenzaka and Sanneizaka, many traditional buildings that showcase the atmosphere of the ancient capital are lined up, and here you can feel authentic Kyoto.  In the vicinity, there are temple and shrines such as Kenninji, Yasaka Shrine, Chionin Temple, Shōren-in Monzeki. Gion and Nishiki Market are within walking distance, so it is convenient for both shopping and dining.
