We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is great as well as the room and facilities. Their spa facility which guests can reserve for a reasonable fee. Everything is great except the breakfast menu is limited. Their staff is also very friendly. We would come back again!

This is a beautiful quiet property in the heart of Gion. The amenities are thoughtful and the room was very clean and comfortable.

Struttura e camera molto belle in stile giapponese, locazione perfetta a due passi a piedi dal centro di Gion e dai mezzi pubblici. Consiglio di provare la prima colazione giapponese che viene servita in camera: il cibo è ottimo e la quantità giusta. In alternativa ed incluso nel costo sono disponibili delle brioche mignon surgelate da scaldare nel forno nella hall (caffè e bevande calde incluse).

Great location. 5 minutes to the right was one area and to the left, another. Property is beautiful and so quiet. A great reprieve from the busyness of Kyoto.doesn’t look like much from the street but … thru the curtain is a beautiful oasis.

Great hotel and wonderful location. The hotel has local charm and character. Be sure to reserve the spa rooms—if I remember it came out to about $30 for over 90 minutes. The spas are private and great after a long day of exploring. Great boutique hotel!

Amazing stay and that alone doesn’t do it justice. Hidden gem - location, location, location. It’s quite difficult to believe this is a three star when in fact everything about it far exceeds anything we’ve experienced at 4+ locations. We will be back and highly recommend to anyone considering visiting Kyoto. You won’t be dissapointed.

La camera ed il bagno hanno tutti i comfort: doccia spaziosa e con un getto molto grande, area dedicata per togliersi le scarpe, frigo mini bar gratis, phone, piastra, spazzola, pettine, creme ecc disponibili Prese aggiuntive e convertitori disponibili Alla mattina in aggiunta c’è un frigo da cui è possibile prendere delle mini brioche e scaldarle e una macchinetta da cui selezionare vari tipi di caffè. La posizione é comodissima per raggiungere la zona di Gion e la famosa Pagoda, ci ha permesso di fare un giro in tarda serata senza trovare nessuno.

We enjoyed the location, was easily in walking distance to many areas we planned to visit, but was very quiet within the area. The staff was fantastic and helpful. The property was beautiful! We booked the room with private open airbath and spa room, massage chair, everything was great and made widing down after walking all day worth it. I was shockes by the amenities, lots of free beverages stocked in the room. Offered happy hour with many more beverage offerings. Will definitely book again for any future visits.

We absolutely loved the hotel. Great location, very quiet inside away from the tourist crowds and yet very easily accessible to old temples and shrines and shopping. The staff was great, room very nice and comfortable. Would stay there again!

We had a great stay at the Gion Hotel in Kyoto, the location was perfect for exploring temples, shops, and the historic streets of Gion. The room was clean, comfortable, and the staff was very kind and helpful throughout our stay.
