Having extra room for myself and my Brother and his family to relax in after a day of sight seeing was a great call. It wasn't cheap, to be sure, but it exceeded my expectations and is one of my all time favorite experiences with a hotel. Sometimes it is worth it to splurge a little, especially with how small most hotel rooms are in Japan. The llocation was also perfect! Highly recommend!!! ##### deren Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruben 5 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice, friendly and accomodating staff especially Sebastian who helped us during our stay.

It was very clean, modern yet traditional. It even smelled soothing in the halls and lobby! Location was perfect for our needs. They do have a wash/dry machine - but it is a condenser-style dryer so be prepared for a long dry time. There are several walk-able laundromats in a pinch. Would 10/10 stay here again. ##### Liza Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark 15 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was very tridoditional ##### Mark Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leah 2 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! If you want to stay in the Gion area, this is a great spot. Just a few blocks off of major shopping stores but near lots of little historic alleyways. Not the most convenient location to get to Kyoto station, but it’s an easy 10 min ($10usd) taxi ride. Lots of fine dining restaurants around if you want that, have to look a little harder for cheaper restaurants, but I had the best ramen a block from the hotel. The staff were awesome, the place was very clean and quiet and you can’t beat the location. Being right by the river is awesome too. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Gion. ##### Leah Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Kanra Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Kanra-Kyoto.h4290390.Hotel-Information) > > [Good Nature Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Good-Nature-Hotel-Kyoto.h37234951.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Iconic-Kyoto.h67663093.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Kyoto.h74059283.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hotel Seiryu Kyoto Kiyomizu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Hotel-Seiryu-Kyoto-Kiyomizu.h44931128.Hotel-Information) > > [SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-SOLARIA-Nishitetsu-Hotel-Kyoto-Premier.h17040479.Hotel-Information) > > [Hearton Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hearton-Hotel-Kyoto.h1452244.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Miyako Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Westin-Miyako-Kyoto.h878301.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Richmond-Hotel-Premier-Kyoto-Ekimae.h37207574.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Emion Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Emion-Kyoto.h45911447.Hotel-Information) > > [Asai Kyoto Shijo Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Asai-Kyoto-Shijo-Hotel.h93073540.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Okura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Hotel-Okura.h6621.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Resol Kyoto Kawaramachi Sanjo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Resol-Kyoto-Kawaramachi-Sanjo.h21926337.Hotel-Information) > > [Noku Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Noku-Kyoto.h12714915.Hotel-Information) > > [RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-Royal-Hotel-Kyoto.h178521.Hotel-Information) > > [Cross Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-CROSS-HOTEL-KYOTO.h27026975.Hotel-Information) > > [TUNE STAY Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-TUNE-STAY-Kyoto-Hostel.h39861619.Hotel-Information) > > [Kyo-machiya Stay WAKA Fushimiinari-tei](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyo-Machiya-Stay-WAKA-Fushimiinari-Tei.h12622986.Hotel-Information) > > [Nazuna Kyoto Gosho](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Nazuna-Kyoto-Gosho.h27637350.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Kyoto-Sanjo.h4538458.Hotel-Information) > > [Kadensho, Arashiyama Onsen, Kyoto - Kyoritsu Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kadensho.h34491269.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Granvia Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Granvia-Kyoto.h444770.Hotel-Information) > > [Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Onyado-Nono-Kyotonanajyo-Natural-Hot-Springs.h44762017.Hotel-Information) > > [Ace Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Ace-Hotel-Kyoto.h45895767.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sanjo-Karasuma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Tokyu-Stay-Kyoto-Ryougaemachi-Dori-Sanjo-Karasuma.h18573474.Hotel-Information) > > [NISHIYAMA RYOKAN - Established in 1953](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-NISHIYAMA-RYOKAN.h3886831.Hotel-Information) > > [JR WEST GROUP VIA INN PRIME KYOTOEKI HACHIJOGUCHI](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Via-Inn-Kyoto-Station-Hachijoguchi.h33382855.Hotel-Information) > > [THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO TAKASEGAWA by HULIC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-GATE-HOTEL-KYOTO-TAKASEGAWA-By-HULIC.h46993133.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Kyoto Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mercure-Kyoto-Station.h46949381.Hotel-Information) > > [Rihga Gran Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-GRAN-KYOTO.h38953457.Hotel-Information)
