budget ryokan experience in kyoto ♨️ japan travel 2023 Join me on my budget-friendly escapade to a charming ryokan just outside Kyoto! 🇯🇵 *"budget-friendly" is relatively subjective. To me, this was considered more budget-friendly since a lot of the options I saw were like $300 - $500USD/night. Discover the authenticity of a cozy bed and breakfast-style inn without breaking the bank. Immerse yourself in the onsen experience, explore the picturesque scenery, and detox from the world in this quaint little town just an hour away from Kyoto. This ryokan experience was everything I hoped for AND it didn't stray too far from my travel budget, which is only a plus! ✎ ryokan mentioned Ohara no Sato Onsen https://agoda.tp.st/C2EYX5qa 00:00 intro 02:24 ryokan tour 04:05 onsen facilities 05:07 dinner - miso nabe 06:29 making my own futon bed 07:16 day 2 start 07:59 traditional japanese breakfast 08:39 thoughts/review of the ryokan #RyokanOnsen #OharaKyoto #BudgetTravel #OnsenExperience #ExploreJapan #TravelVlog ☆ Shop my Amazon storefront for all of my travel essentials! https://www.amazon.com/shop/itsawkwardamy ♡ connect with me subscribe: https://bit.ly/3sYIgZ6 instagram: @itsawkwardamy https://bit.ly/3gC2By6 for business inquiries, please email amyfei08@gmail.com ♫ music thru thematic (http://bit.ly/47lXICp) Naomi - Romantic Moon - https://thmatc.co/?l=6BB88509 Louise May - butterflies - https://thmatc.co/?l=D5A0CE09 📷 filmed on sony zv-1 https://amzn.to/3BjDuJI 🔍 SEO Keywords: Ryokan Onsen, Ohara Kyoto Travel, Budget Ryokan, Authentic Onsen, Kyoto Budget Travel *please note that this post includes affiliate links

About This Video

In this video I take you with me to a “budget-friendly” ryokan experience just outside Kyoto—aka a traditional onsen inn tucked up in the mountains, surrounded by nature. Getting there was part of the adventure: I took a 50-minute bus from Kyoto (540 yen one way), and there’s also a shuttle option, but it’s still about a 15-minute walk if you don’t time it right. I was honestly running on like three hours of sleep (matcha + me = a problem), so this whole trip was meant to be a little detox from the world. I give you a mini ryokan tour, show what the communal onsen facilities are like, and walk through the self-service vibe—making my own futon bed, wearing the yukata, and following their helpful instructions (which were kind of interesting in different languages). Dinner was miso nabe hot pot, and it was so filling I skipped the onsen that night and just leaned into the cozy, calm energy. At the end I share my honest review: one night with meals included was $166 USD, which was one of the cheaper options I found booking about three weeks out (Japan books up fast). The building is older and the walls are thin, but it felt homey, traditional, and genuinely tranquil—very different from a more luxurious hot spring resort experience.
