Stayed here in November 2024 and there's nothing to complain about. The price is high yes, but Hanaikada is a ryokan. You get traditional Japanese experience plus the comforts of western amenities like bidet toilets, hot/cold sinks etc...rooms were huge. the low number of guests also mean low disturbance. Kaiseki dinner had puffer fish and my surprise amused the host. The breakfast serving was so generous that I almost couldn't finish my food. The private onsen was open air and so nice. The tub that you soak in is actually sheltered, so no problems soaking if it rains. It's about a 15 minute walk from Saga-Arashiyama station and Arashiyama station. Otherwise there is another Arashiyama (Tram) station about 10 minutes away, so connectivity is good. I won't mind staying here again if cost is no issue.

Hotel posizionato in maniera eccellente con buona parte delle camere che danno sullo storico ponte e sul fiume. Accoglienza eccellente, ospitalità senza eguali. Onsen comuni abbastanza piccoli, probabilmente non si prevede permanenze oltre i 20/30 min. Onsen privato all’aria aperta piccolino. Per provare le sensazioni vanno assolutamente bene. Cena esteticamente superlativa, i gusti sono ottimi ed aderenti alla tradizione. Dormire su futon é un esperienza che non si può mancare in Giappone. Yakuta a disposizione e ciabatte per girare liberamente in tutto il Ryokan. Davvero da fare. Bravi!

We had lunch here and it was fabulous! Everything was so delicious and the setting was so authentic including the best service I have ever experienced. We also booked the private bath that was a perfect water temperature for our rainy afternoon and left us relaxed and warmed throughout our day.
