"Both rooms were very large, according to Japanese tourist standards, and included a traditional tatami room or "utility room" area that was great for eating takeout or additional sleeping space."

“In Gion, this hotel distinguishes itself with spacious, traditionally styled suites featuring kitchenettes, plus its dedication to wellness via a full-service spa; the Michelin Guide seems to agree. The location is ideal for exploring Kyoto's cultural heart, with landmarks like Kiyomizu-dera Temple within easy reach. It's a luxurious and well-situated base for immersing oneself in the city.”
