great location
Pros:

Great little boutique hotel just a 2 minute walk from the main shopping area of Gion. Very modern and large room. Laundry room if needed. Staff extremely helpful, although some of them struggled with English (in hotels I think this is a necessary skill worldwide unfortunately). Close access to trains and bus routes and walkable to river and lots of restaurants closeby. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Cons:

nothing really.

Mükemmel bir konumda rahatsız bir konaklama
Pros:

Bu otelin konumu gerçekten harika Gion'da birçok yere yürüme mesafesinde, şehri keşfetmek için mükemmel bir basepoint. Banyosu çok geniş ve konforluydu. Japonya seyahatimiz boyunca toplam 4 farklı otelde konakladık. Kaldığımız en geniş oda bu oteldeydi, ancak en iyi konaklamamız olduğunu söyleyemeyeceğim.

Cons:

Odanın en büyük handikabı havalandırma sistemiydi. Pencereler açılmadığı için doğal havalandırma yoktu ve klimalar tam yatağın üzerine yerleştirilmişti. Bu, çok rahatsız edici bir kullanıcı deneyimi. Bu oteli tasarlayanlar üzerinde tüm gece klima üflerken uyumanın nasıl bir deneyim olduğu hakkında bir fikir sahibi değiller sanırım. Sürekli hastaydım ve boğazlarım kuruydu. Yaz aylarında ziyaret ettiğimiz için hava çok sıcaktı ve klimasız uyumak mümkün değildi. İyi bir havalandırma olmadığında odanın genişliği ya da yatakların rahatlığı bir önemi kalmıyor, çünkü rahat bir uyku uyuyamıyorsunuz. Japonya'da çok daha küçük odalarda çok daha konforlu bir konaklama yaptım. Odada ayrıca tuhaf bir rutubet kokusu vardı. Muhtemelen bu da havalandırma ile ilgiliydi. Ödediğim fiyatı kesinlikle hak ettiğini düşünmüyorum. Bir daha gidersem tercih etmem.

Pros:

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour au Yoin Hotel. La chambre était spacieuse et confortable, avec une salle de bain à la japonaise très agréable, offrant une véritable expérience locale.
L’hôtel est bien situé, même si notre chambre donnait sur une boîte de nuit. Cela dit, nous n’avons subi aucune nuisance sonore et avons très bien dormi.
Une adresse que nous recommandons sans hésiter.

Cons:

Une proposition de petit déjeuner aurait été un vrai plus

I would gladly stay here again!
Pros:

Really nice rooms and facilities. Also, the location is superb. Subway stations are close, but so many attractions are even closer. Would class restaurants, shrines and pagodas are all within walking distance. Even the shopping opportunities near this hotel are great. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Cons:

We didn’t complain at the time, but the pillows were uncomfortable.
