Hotels in Gion/Kiyomizu Temple, Kyoto

The room is clean and tidy, and the transportation is convenient. It is very close to Sanjusangendo, Kyoto Museum, and Chishakuin Temple, and it is only one stop away from Kamogawa. It is quiet in the bustling city, small and exquisite, very good.

My family and I truly enjoyed staying at the DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Higashiyama during our recent trip to Japan. We found the rooms clean and elegant and the food in the restaurant to be very good. However the one thing that truly stood out was the warm and gracious service we received during our stay. Service: The service we received was truly above and beyond expectations. We had flown in on a red-eye flight from Singapore the night before our stay and were dead tired by the time we got to the hotel. The next day, we realized that our camera was missing and checked with the hotel if someone had turned it in. The front desk told us no one had, but then proceeded to help us trace back our steps to the last time we saw our camera at a restaurant in the Osaka airport. They then proceeded to call the restaurant for us and helped schedule a pick-up time for us at the airport lost and found. We are forever grateful for the hotel's front desk's help in finding our camera! Location: The hotel is conveniently located in the Higashiyama area of Kyoto. From the hotel, we were able to easily take short cab rides to local sites such as Kiyomizu-dera and the Kyoto National Museum. The hotel is also conveniently located near Kiyomizu-Gojō Station. Rooms: The rooms were absolutely spotless and clean. The beds were comfortable with thick bedding (perfect since the weather was on the cool side when we were there). The restroom was also split between a room containing the shower and tub with the toilet in a separate room. Dining: At the hotel, we had dinner one night and breakfast the two mornings we were there. Everything that we tried was very well prepared and delicious. At dinner we ordered a variety of plates to share including a salad, pasta, fish dish, and dessert. Breakfast was served in buffet format and included a variety of both Japanese and Western options. Overall we truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the future!

Don't know why but I fell in love with this hotel. Modern, clean, always with good music and smell, well furnished with wood, concrete, and plants, with a lovely bakery at the entrance, and a fantastic restaurant serving a delicious and abundant breakfast. The room was very well modernly furnished. They offer you many experiences, and even an electric bike to visit Kyoto (that I really enjoyed). The staff was very friendly, even if sometimes it was struggling to talk due to poor English knowledge. It is very close to Higashiyama and Gion, which you can reach by walking 15-20'. The rooftop bar serves excellent cocktails. Additionally, the price is low for the service and the quality offered! FANTASTIC!

I am a person who has written reviews or comments on all sites less than 10 times, but this is the best value for money!! I am writing this to help frugal travelers like me. 100% made with my own money~ First of all, everything is new. Even the amenities and small items are stylish... The water glass was made in France. It's a pity I couldn't take a picture... It's a shame I can't upload a video... Views and such may be disappointing. But the moss view is as good as the courtyard It seems like the owner really loves moss ^^ It may be a little bizarre emotionally, but I felt like I was looking at a work of art. location… It takes 5 buses from Gion and about 10,000 won by taxi. I had a Kyoto one-day pass, so the location wasn't disappointing. With real woman's steps Sanjusangendo 3-minute walk Kyoto Tower 15 minutes walk 20 minutes walk from Kiyomizu-dera Temple I like to walk... ^^ Location, cleanliness, new luggage storage service, friendly foreign staff I was grateful for the attentive service while avoiding encounters as much as possible. After writing a review, it became so famous that people started talking about it. I'm worried that it will be difficult to make a reservation on my next visit and it will be ruined. When I was deciding on a place to stay, there weren't too many reviews, so I wasted the time I spent worrying about it, so I'm leaving this here... I hope it will be helpful to many young travelers... As someone who loves Kyoto~!!

One of my favourite hotels during my trip! We paid SGD120 per night in December 2023 and it was great value considering the location. I didn’t realise it when we booked, but this hotel is a 10 min walk to Yasaka Shrine, which was great because we had a Kimono rental and did not have time to travel to the other shrines in Kyoto. There is also a convenience store located beside Yasaka shrine, which is great for your late night snack run. I loved the private environment of the hotel, and how the sunlight shines through the shoji windows in the morning. The hotel feels really cozy and the bed is extra comfortable and feels like a premium hotel bed. Do take note that to get to this hotel, you will need to get on a bus from Kyoto station and it is about a 15-20 mins walk from the bus stop - for your consideration if you are bringing elderly and children or heavy luggage. Although considering this, this hotel is still highly recommended by me ^^

The room is spacious and clean. The neighborhood is quiet and very comfortable.

I loved the location, it was nice & quiet. but also near some of the places to visit in Kyoto. I liked walking to the Heian Shrine, Yasaka Shrine, Kodaiji, and Kawaramachi. There's also several buses and trains within a few minutes walk from the hotel. Overall I loved the hotel's and the neighborhood's peaceful vibe, and easy access to historical sites & shopping areas in Kyoto.

It's beautiful hotel which has own shuttle buses to Kyoto station. They pay attention to every detail and every aspect. Service is superb. hotel staffs are very friendly and so polite. They welcome you from the beginning outside hotel. Greeting every time they see you. Shuttle buses drives are extremely helpful and friendly.! Breakfast are always great. Morning chef is amazing and kind. Thank you. And please give my best regards to him. Me and my parents had lovely time during stay. And if not because we booked hotel another week at Osaka, we sure would love to stay another week. My father still talk about the trip at your hotel while we stay at Imperial Hotel Osaka. In general,thank you.and wish every stuff all the best.

A new shape capsule hotel with tourist specifications The image of a capsule hotel was that an uncle who couldn't return by train because he drank it was staying, but TSUKIMI HOTEL has free space and can cook. Therefore, it was the perfect accommodation for backpackers. The staff were all cheerful and responsive and I felt good. This was a matter of luck, but the only drawback was that the next customer snored badly, but I escaped the difficulty because there was an earplug in the amenities.

This was by far the best accommodation we stayed in during our trip to Japan. I was a bit hesitant to book it as other reviews said it’s far away from everything, but it’s not. A short/cheap taxi from the train station (1000-1200 Yen) self-serve check in and self-serve luggage storage (which was a blessing!) We stayed in an apartment, spacious, modern, clean, separate bedroom, washer/dryer, bath and shower and full kitchen. I would live in this apartment if I could! There are staff in the reception area during certain times if you need help. The bus stop is right around the corner. Food options nearby.
