Japanese Style Ryokan 'Motonago', Kyoto
Nestled between the gentle mountain range of Higashiyama and the pure flow of Kamo River, Motonaga is situated in a tranquil, calming environment a little away from the whirl of the city. Its townscape that extends alongst a pavement approaching Kodai-ji and Kiyomizu-dera temples, Nene no Michi, pleases tourists eyes with the unique atmosphere of Kyoto, the Japan's old capital.On entering through a door with a tiled roof while seeing a tasteful earthen wall made using traditional techniques, Motonago welcomes you with a warm hospitality that only a humble inn, with its 11 rooms, can offer.

In Case You Couldn't Find Your Accommodation on Booking.com.
You could try booking yourself, or inquire us from Find Me a Ryokan.
Staying at a Traditional Japanese Ryokan would be an unforgettable experience for the rest of your life. But, unlike other modern hotels, you might find it difficult booking it yourself due to their unique reservation method and language barrier. Even if they have an English page, its information volume is usually too minimum and imperfect to understand. Accordingly, your reservation needs to be handled properly by people knowledgeable to their system like us. Japanesque.xyz promises to handle your bookings adequately as a medium to connect you and ryokans. Even in case that there is no availability at the Ryokan you selected, we will propose some alternatives of the same grade in stead.
Language Assistance
Language Assistance Service
Sooner or later, the first trouble you will face in Japan would be the language barrier.
Most people in Japan are not fluent in English, and if they do speak it is mostly with a cursory understanding, kind of like an American high school graduate's knowledge of Spanish.
Older people mostly have much poorer English skills than young people. Outside of the busiest areas of Tokyo and Kyoto, you will find that most people will not be as responsive to "Hello" and "Excuse me", and may shy away if they think that you know no Japanese at all.
Generally, Japan is a very friendly place for travelers, and everyone is always willing to lend a helping hand. However, It does not mean that you are released from the language problems you will face in various situations while you stay in Japan.
For instance;
1. Restaurants never have English menus and waitresses do not speak English,
2. Ticket vending machines at restaurants have no English explanation,
3. Can't easily find the way to your destination when you get lost,
4. Can't correctly tell clerks what item you are looking for
5. Can't exactly tell people your symptoms when you suddenly get ill, etc, etc..
Accommodation Japanesque's LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE SERVICE would be your best solution for building smoother yet instant mutual understanding with non-English-speaking people at any situations. All you have to do is just call and tell us what you want to tell the person you are trying to communicate with. We will translate your words for you and solve your language barrier problem at once.
A single bad experience is capable of ruining your whole journey. We promise to make your journey comfortable, smooth, and trouble-free through our expertise communication skills.
