Struttura curata, personale top, quartiere meraviglioso.
Pros:

Struttura accogliente, curata nei dettagli, set da bagno e pigiama a disposizione. Camera piccola per lo standard europeo ma per il Giappone abbastanza confortevole.
Nel cuore del quartiere Gion, super!

The location was away from the hussle and bustle so was quieter but close enough walk to get to the main shopping area.

Pros:

Schönes kleines Hotel, befindet sich im Stadtteil Higashiyama, also ganz in der Nähe von vielen Temple und Restaurants höchster Qualität. Es ist zwar nicht aufwendig ausgestattet, es hat uns aber an nichts gefehlt: das Zimmer war komfortabel und sauber, das Badezimmer war, wie in den meisten Orten in Japan, hochmodern gerichtet, und das Dekor war sehr minimalistisch aber ästhetisch.

Hotel ist zu empfehlen !
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit !

Es gab zu wenig Platz um die Kleider auszupacken !
Leider hatten wir nur Aussicht zur Nachbars Hauswand und die Fenster konnten nicht geöffnet werden.

En el corazón de Gion
Pros:

En el corazón de Gion, puedes recorrer todo ese sector a pie perdiéndote por sus calles. Al estar tan en el centro de Gion puedes ir o muy temprano o muy tarde a las calles y templos del sector que son muy concurridos. Tiene un pequeño supermercado cerca

Cons:

No tiene metro tan cerca y está alejado de la estación de trenes. Para tomar trasporte público tendrás que caminar por lo menos 10-15 min
