Absolutely excellent hotel. Staff are so welcoming, the hotel is super clean and modern. Great location to be in Gion, but equally close enough to others parts of Kyoto to explore on foot. A heads up that breakfast is hot drinks, juices and croissants, which was plnery enough for us. Thank you Miru Kyoto Gion for a wonderful stay, we will be recommending to friends and family.

My stay in Kyoto was made unforgettable by this beautiful hotel, which perfectly blended traditional Japanese charm with modern comfort. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere felt good and refined, offering a welcome escape from the busy streets of the city. The location was ideal close to many of Kyoto’s most famous attractions, yet tucked away enough to feel quiet and relaxing. After long days of sightseeing, returning to such a peaceful environment was a real luxury. Overall, this hotel captures the essence of Kyoto: elegant, tranquil, and deeply rooted in tradition. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and relaxing stay in one of Japan’s most historic cities.
