Minn Gion was just a few minutes from the train and I'm such a walkable area. There is a Family Mart right next door and more restaurants than you can count in any direction out of the front door. My only complaint would be that the refrigerator wasn't cleaned thoroughly and there were remnants of food in the sink drain when we arrived. The bathroom and the rest of the room was very clean and it was spacious enough to accommodate 4 adults! I would stay again.

Good location and friendly staff. We thought the couch would pull out into a bed but it didn’t, which was the only thing that surprised us. We appreciated the coin laundry in the basement but the dryer function in the machine we used didn’t actually dry our clothes. Everything else was great, and they also provide a place to store your luggage after you check out.

This was a great home base for our family of 4 while we were in Kyoto. Not super luxurious, but clean, comfortable and very convenient. Located right in Gion. There is a FamilyMart next door and the subway station is just 4 blocks away. The hallway carpets could use some stain treatment, but other than that it was a great place to stay.

Loved the family suite. It was perfect for my husband, myself, 2 kids, and brother who were traveling. Plenty of room. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was a plus, and I was able to catch up on laundry since it was the middle of our trip. Unit stayed cool with air conditioner, which was nice due to the heat in July. We arrived before check in and were able to store our luggage in their luggage room for no additional cost. It was close to an amazing coffee place as well and a family mart right next to it.

Our room was spacious and we had 4 tatami style beds that felt like we were really in Japan:) very clean bathrooms. It was next to Family Mart where we bought bfast items among others as the property didnt have its own resto. It was about 12min by foot to the river/Pontocho Alley, and about 15min to Nishiki Mrket. It was hot but the stroll was ok since we enjoyed Kyoto street charm. Proce of hotel was very reasonable. We used the laundry once - this could’ve been better, but no biggie.

Onsite self laundry and private onsen were nice. Rooms were spacious and having a kitchen was useful for our family. Great location to walk all over Gion and easy access to Sanjo train station. Hotel was renovated recently and very clean. Luggage storage and free umbrella use were nice added amentities.

If you need space, this is the place. We enjoyed the location as well as the space that gave us ample room to relax. Walkable to everything we wanted to enjoy in the Kyoto area. Washer and dryer was really hard to understand and it took a full 24hours to do one load. Stovetop did not work, and we didn't realize that until after we bought eggs, bread, butter, etc.

We stayed 4 nights. Location was great but since we stayed less than 6 nights they didn’t do room service which was sort of a let down. Having to wash your towels and stack bags of garbage was not the greatest but it’s a limited staffed counter with remote check in/check out access so just be prepared with that in mind. There was one staff at the counter in the mornings but we didn’t have much interaction with him. Oh, and be prepared for the loads of laundry to take several hours to complete. Overall a good place to stay.
