Gion, 1.1 km from Karasuma
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (1,003 reviews)
"This is a very nice boutique hotel with great service and nice facilities, but the best thing about it is the location in Gion district. You are just steps away from the busy streets and alleys full of shops and restaurants, but the hotel is very quiet. Staff is friendly and attentive. Walk to temples or to shops with ease. Breakfast is an awesome buffet of western and Japanese cuisine. Highly recommended."
