Location was everything for us, just a 5 minute walk to Ninezaka area filled with beautiful streets. Kiyomizu-dera and other temples/ shrines super close by. Only a 15 minute drive to train station and Nishiki Market. Was such a good spot to stay while getting out of Tokyo for a few days.

If you're looking for an affordable hotel that offers easy access to historic Gion (and the rest of Kyoto), Terrace Kiyomizu is a great option. The rooftop terrace and complimentary beverage machine were also much appreciated.
