Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, nestled in the heart of the historic Gion area and surrounded by traditional Japanese architecture. The rooms offer a stunning view of Gion, perfect for sipping a glass of wine or enjoying a peaceful cup of tea. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the price could be a bit high for some budget travelers.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right next to the train station and in a quiet neighborhood. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a lovely tatami area perfect for families. The service was top-notch, especially at the reception desk. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the homemade soup was just okay. Overall, great value for the money!
I was thrilled with my stay at this hotel! The rooms were terrific, featuring a cozy tatami area that was perfect for families with young kids. Additionally, having a balcony overlooking a temple truly enhanced the experience. The cleanliness was impeccable. On the downside, the price could be a bit high for some travelers.
