Can’t ask for more in a hotel in Kyoto. The rooms are traditional with tatami mats. The location is great; everything is within a twenty minute walk. The staff is great!

Hotel Gion was wonderful! The property is beautiful and centrally located in the old district, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the hotel has thought of everything you could need: PJs, skin care sets, free drinks and snacks, etc. We had a wonderful stay and would come again!

Brilliant hotel, very beautifully made and with a lot of well thought amenities. We especially liked the beautiful lighting and the large bed! And we had a jacuzzi. The only downside was the TV sound, it was really quiet no matter what we did

Great location!
Great location. Walkable to Gion, shops and restaurants. The staff are great and helpful. The room was amazing, however I found it odd that our room didn't have any windows we could look out, but it was still a nice room. The lounge area was really nice, in fact all the common areas were beautiful.

A beautiful and spacious hotel within walking distance to most shrines and temples. They offer complimentary coffee and lattes and water along with ramen noodles for guests.
Rooms are clean and comfortable and the general feel is very pleasant. I would highly recommend this place.

Excellent rooms (one of the best I have stayed in). No views from the rooms, but you can open the windows partially for some fresh air. Rooms are spacious, elegant and comfortable. Staff are polite and facilities are good (it doesn't have dining room or kitchen but the little restaurant directly opposite is a good option).
Would definitely stay here again.
