Rinn Gion Bishamon

Great location and price. In-room washing machine was a big plus. 10 min walk to subway. Buses on tourist routes tend to be packed.

The location in Gion was excellent. Steps away from Shijo dori, the Trauma shrine and Nishiki market, yet quiet and peaceful.

Very spacious room and at very convenient location in Gion

Great hotel and great stuff!! Very good value for money. the room is very spacious and the location is great, 5-7 minuets walk from central gion and 5-7 minuets walk from Kiyomizu-dera temple. Very recommend.

Plus = location is pretty solid - almost exactly between the touristy Gion district and the more entertaining side of the river. Walkable to some solid restaurants and convenience stores. Cons: pretty basic accommodations, and typical in the small size of room (hey, it’s Japan). Would stay again.

The stay in Rinn Gion Bishamon was very roomy with very good facilities and friendly service. Close to the shops and restaurants as well as a reliable bus service. We stayed 5 nights to get a good feel of the shrines, temples, gardens and culture. Our room did not have a change of sheets as they had mentioned on the third day. Otherwise, it was very comfortable and well located.Lighting for reading good. We used a taxi service on the way back to Kyoto train station.

We spent three nights there and it is a hidden gem of the hotels we've stayed at in Kyoto. The room was very "high tech" and very spacious. Everything in the room was wonderful and we always had a restful sleep. The breakfasts (i.e. bentos) were very good and we were able to enjoy them in our room. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. We will definitely try to stay here again the next time we are in Kyoto. It's a very short walking distance from the Kyomizu-dera temple and the shopping areas in the Gion area.

Wonderful hotel in a great location!

They were very nice and attentive to our needs. The location was great and the rooms were a nice size and thankfully the AC worked at it was over 100 degrees (F) each day.

We stayed here for 13 nights, so it was especially important that we felt comfortable and welcome. The staff did everything in their power to make sure we did, and by the end of our stay we felt very much at home in this wonderful little hotel. We loved the great location - easy walking distance to shopping, restaurants, temples, shrines and transit. The balcony, washer and the kitchenette were great additions. The bed could have been softer, but firm beds are the norm in Japan. We highly recommend it and would stay here again.
