We were very happy with this hotel and our room.
Pros:

Staff was really nice and helpful, especially the Russian lady.

Cons:

Perfect location in the Geisha district, lovely room.
Pros:

The location of Yoin Hotel was fabulous, set in a quiet street in Gion, but just a step away from all the action, including the beautiful geishas going about their work in the evenings. Also close to two significant Buddhist temples, a quick walk away. The room was spacious, lovely bathroom.

Cons:

The option of breakfast would have been a nice extra. The television channels were only in Japanese. But hey we were so busy with the sightseeing it didn't really matter.

Pros:

Отличный отель в исторической части Киото, в пешей доступности от множества парков и достопримечательностей. В локации отеля много ресторанов и баров, метро также недалеко от отеля, что позволяет быстро добираться до нужных мест в городе. В 10-15 минутах ходьбы также есть несколько крупных торговых центров, в том числе Kyoto Takashimaya Shopping Center с множеством люксовых брендов и оформлением tax-free прямо в ТЦ.
