Attraktive Unterkunft mit gutem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis
Pros:

Sehr schöne Zimmer, ruhige Lage, die aber mitten im Viertel Gion liegt. Ausserdem verfügt das Hotel über einen Onsen und das Frühstück ist sehr gut.

Amazing city. But two days is plenty. Many places in Japan are magnificent inc Kyoto
Pros:

Everything we enjoyed for location and the onsen was nice also. Staff was helpful. Not sure why not enough breakfast food. To many soups and lunch food for our taste. But I realize it must be part of culture casue many places serve soups and dinner time food for breakfast. But overall I still think hotle was a 10. Thank you for all the help. We enjoyed Kyoto for the two days we were there.

Pros:

Posizione fantastica e bella camera. La pulizia della camera è limitata al cambio di asciugamani (la pulizia completa è disponibile pagando un piccolo sovraprezzo) ma la struttura è pulita. Consigliato per la ottima posizione.

Great little spot, would stay here again!
Pros:

Hotel was close to Gion-Shijo station which was extremely convenient. Close to the shops and Nishiki Market. Staff were very friendly and professional. Room was comfortable and the amenities were great.

Cons:

The room we stayed in did not have space either side to get into bed so we had to climb into bed from the bottom. This meant we disturbed each other if getting up in the night.
