“What struck me is its Gion location, truly in the heart of Kyoto's geisha district, with surprisingly spacious rooms equipped with kitchenettes and even washing machines; a real find for families or extended stays. The multilingual staff, fluent in English and Chinese as well as Japanese, are a great asset in navigating the area, and the proximity to cultural landmarks makes it an ideal base for exploring. I think that it is more than just a place to stay, it's a launchpad for experiencing authentic Kyoto.”
