Hotel Mastay Jingumichi

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.13km from Kongoji
I came with my wife to Kyoto for an over three weeks’ longstay for the fall foliage. We couldn’t have picked a better place!!! The hotel room is bright with both natural lighting and excellent indoor lighting. It is roomy, and the utmost efficient and functional in its setup in every possible way. The location is excellent, with easy access to all kinds of public transportation. It is also within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and many of our favorite temples. At the same time, the hotel is located in an area that is quiet and tranquil, not overly crowded with tourists. The staff was extremely polite and went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. They helped to solve language problems for us with restaurant booking and provided useful advice on where to go for a good meal. The house cleaning was great, with great attention to detail. Overall, we are very satisfied with our stay, and would not hesitate to recommend this place to all our friends.
THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA by Kyoto Tokyu Hotel
4.6/5176 Reviews

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA by Kyoto Tokyu Hotel

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.18km from Kongoji
The room has a substantial size, bigger than the usual Japanese hotel, the design is great. The hotel opened in 2022 so everything is new, it has shuttle bus service to and from Kyoto Station 京都駅 every hour which came in quite handy as we spent some time shopping there. You can check the timetable on the hotel’s website. The location is a bit far from the central Kyoto area but there is a lot of enjoyable historic sites surrounding the hotel and the area is quite calm and tranquil. The view from our room looks towards the inner garden of the hotel which is quite nice. There is a mountain at the background as well to add to the natural vibe. Staffs had the usual Japanese mentality, very welcoming and pleasant. There is a subway station near the hotel, about 3-5 minutes walk, but we never got to use it as the convenience of taxi got us every time. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Higashiyama Shikikaboku

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.18km from Kongoji
This is a wonderful hotel with heartfelt hospitality from arrival to departure. Both the hotel and guest rooms are furnished with elegant interiors and furnishings, allowing you to enjoy a high-quality stay. The manager and other staff members are warm and considerate, and rather than staying at a hotel, I feel a sense of security as if I had just returned to my villa. The rooms are spacious, with spacious furniture and beds, and beautiful tea utensils in the tea room. There is a mini kitchen with a sink, which is nice for rinsing teaware and glasses. All drinks in the room are free. You can look at the miniature garden while having a drink on the sofa. I also liked that there was no TV in the room. The washbasin can be used comfortably with a double sink. There was a steam iron in the closet, which was useful for removing wrinkles from the clothes I took out of my suitcase. There is an open-air bath on the upper floor, which can be rented out. The next day's check-out time is 12:00, so I was able to enjoy the open-air bath in the morning, and it felt great. Recommended for villas in Kyoto.

Okazaki Kyoto|0.31km from Kongoji
I went by car, but the parking lot is also on the back side of the building, and I would like to do some sightseeing after checking out, so I was very grateful to hear the question if I could stop. The staff was very friendly and I was able to spend a pleasant time. Is the main building mainly a Western-style room? I think the annex on the back side is mainly Japanese-style rooms. Speaking of which, it was a pity that the underground bath could be taken until midnight but not early in the morning. The location is good, about 10 minutes on foot to Higashiyama Station on the Tozai Subway Line, and you can walk to Nanzenji Temple and Eikando. I would like to use it again.

Hotel Wing International Premium Kyoto Sanjo

Sanjo Kyoto|0.53km from Kongoji
It was a new hotel, so it was beautiful. Even if it is new, there are many places full of dust, so recently I'm going to clean it myself and bring a bath detergent. I'm glad that's the best! Amenity is substantial. It's an amenity buffet that you can choose near the front desk, so you don't have to choose unnecessary things and don't have to waste. The room has a bath, toilet, and wash basin with ３ independent specifications, so it's easy to use and the breakfast is delicious. I think it's a good hotel to compare the price and service. If this is more expensive, it can't be kind, but ＾＾

M’s Hotel Sanjo Wakoku

Sanjo Kyoto|0.54km from Kongoji
It took us a while to find this hotel. It is situated in the side streets of Kyoto. A bit far from everything. Not much cafes and restaurants are found within the vicinity of this hotel. The check in process is a bit frustrating especially if you’ve traveled far and walked a long while prior to check in. There is no personnel to assist you. No complimentary bottled water. No convenience store nearby which is odd if you are in Japan. The nearest Family Mart is probably 300m away. The room is planned well. There is ample space to walk around despite having 3 luggages. There is a little tub in the bathroom and electronic toilet.

CHION-IN WAJUN-KAIKAN

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.56km from Kongoji
This wonderful place is nothing like the rustic version we stayed at in Yudenaka. It is more like an upscale boutiqe hotel. Only 3 floors, but very well kept. Our room was one of the largest we experienced during the 2 weeks we were in Japan. We chose to decline the meal package as we expected we would be out during the dinner time, and did not want to commit to breakfast, as my wife is a very fussy eater. A public bath for men and a bath for women is located in the basement. Exceptionally clean and properly set up in the shower area and bath area,. I chose to take advantage of the bath each evening. It is so incredibly relaxing. The bath is not heated by thermal springs but whatever they use to heat the building. The front desk staff could not be more helpful during our stay. When a snowstorm hit Kyoto, it meant the shipping company that we chose to forward our large suitcases was no longer viable since the company cancelled all trips that day. When we got up the next morning we discovered that the taxi cab companies were not answering the phones that morning(due to snow and ice). The front desk looked at my wife and I with 4 suitcases, my cane and walker and somehow just knew that we couldnt possibly get to the Kyoto station using public transit. The tall, thin gentleman behind the desk, went outside and ran at his fastest speed, 3 blocks to find a idle taxi, ran back to us, still checking out, took all of our luggage outside to the waiting taxi, assisted with the loading, ensuring that we were safely inside and on our way before he went back inside, hopefully to have a well earned cup of tea. The service is outstanding, the meal to my eyes looked incredible. The rooms have ample space for luggage, fully stocked bathrooms, Yukatas for wearing to the bath and 2 bottles of water daily. They also include a small refrigerator. If I should be so fortunate to visit Japan again in my lifetime, this will be my must stay hotel. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH CHION-IN WAJUN KAIKAN!!! EXCELLENT STAFF AND OUTSTANING SERVICE. THANK YOU SO MJCH FOR HELPING MAKE THIS DREAM VACATION SO SPECIAL!!!
Hotel Zizi Kyoto Gion

Hotel Zizi Kyoto Gion

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.57km from Kongoji
We pre booked for 4 days and extended twice as we loved Kyoto and were so comfortable at this outstanding boutique inn. We tried out 4 of the rooms and all were great. It’s new (6m I think), modern, immaculate Beds and pillows comfy, lovely towels and linen Bar fridge, kettle, green tea, coffee in room Bath and shower are big with lovely shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Plus cleanser, toner and moisturiser. Dyson hairdryer Monday - Friday we got a lovely breakfast basket with croissant, bread, butter, jam and juice. The staff are outstanding and a real asset to this place. They were just so lovely, helpful and diligent during our entire stay. Location was excellent, not that big a walk to anything we needed. Walked with our luggage and young kids from closest train station. Very close to convenience stores and an excellent ramen restaurant. Spotted my first geisha within 5 mins of leaving hotel after checkin. This happened a few times and I felt so lucky. Cons which did not bother us but may others: Stairs only. They can carry your baggage to your room though. First floor room was a bit noisy (street noise but it’s on a quiet street) In summary Highly recommend this place and think the pricing was cheap for what it offered during our February stay.

In my 3 wks travelling around Japan this was by far the best place I stayed at. Very friendly atmosphere and very reasonabley priced. Miwa was very welcomingand helpful on reception and Chiro the owner was a wonderful host, very chatty and generous. The breakfast is a full on buffet with traditional Japanesse or western options. They also do a very reasonabley prices evening meals with a dedicated cook. Lot's of sites and attractions within walking distance and bikes are available to rent at a cheap price which is a perfect way to see the rest of the city and beyond. 5 mins walk from the subway station in a very layed back suburb just outside the busy city centre. Friday nights are all you can eat party nights and Chiro also owns a local onsen which you can visit for free. Thank you for a great stay.

Zen Machiya Inn

Okazaki Kyoto|0.2km from Kongoji
２ It was an inn I took on a trip with a person. １ Rent out the whole eaves! The first thing was that I was very relaxed without being caught in the simple feeling of a hotel! There are toilets up and downstairs, and the remake of the old folk house felt the old-fashioned taste, soaked in the warmth, and it was very fun. Next time I went to Kyoto, I thought I would use it! ..

Loved our stay at Hotel Material! We booked the Mini Room/ Double Room, which was a tad tight for my husband and I, but still plenty comfortable! (We only had carry on’s and backpacks, otherwise it would have been more difficult.) Room: 5/5. Loved the balcony. Street noise can be heard, but it’s not terrible. Super clean. Great amenities. Super comfortable bed! Slept great!! Bathroom: 5/5. Lovely toilet & toilet room. Great shower & shower room. Nice towels & amenities. Staff: 5/5. Great communication prior to checking in, and after checking out. The gentleman (Jeronimo) was super helpful and personable! Such a great guy. The other two individuals I encountered were also nice, but not as great of English (no big deal since I know I’m a foreigner in their country.) The location was great, but expect to walk a lot to get to the prime locations! (4/5) They let us leave our luggage on our check-out day (check-out is at 10 am) to allow us to explore Kyoto more. So nice! (Also there is no breakfast or cafe in the building anymore, as a FYI.) Thank you again so much for a great stay!! Absolutely recommend to everyone for their Kyoto travels! Great value!
Hotel Legasta Kyoto Higashiyama Sanjo

Hotel Legasta Kyoto Higashiyama Sanjo

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.3km from Kongoji
The location is not too far from Sanjo train station. We had purchased the JR pass before arriving in Japan. Sanjo station was not on the JR line so we had to buy tickets to use the trains from there. We walked from the hotel to various sightseeing destinations. The room was lovely and was so clean. We loved the reception ladies who were so kind and helpful. We left our bags with reception upon checking out so we could make the most of the sightseeing around the hotel. The hotel offers tea and coffee at the reception area which was really nice. The only issue we found with the room was that once all the lights were off there was a light switch in the middle of the headboard that stayed on. We only stayed here for one night but we would definitely come back despite the lighting issue (placed a pillow on top of it).

Located in an old residential neighborhood, it is very quiet. There is a gurgling stream right outside the door, which is very beautiful. The rooms facing the stream have small balconies. The B&B is not big, a three-story building with about four or five guest rooms on each floor. To enter the guest room area, you need to open a door with a password. The introduction said that it was newly opened in 2023, and the facilities are indeed very new. There is no key card, and a real key is used. The key card is a wooden block and cannot be put into the card holder. Keep it safe when going out. Because it is not an electronic lock, the door will not lock automatically after closing. Remember to twist the anti-theft button again, otherwise you can open it by pressing the door handle from the outside. This one is a bit scary. There is no main power switch at the bedside, so be sure to turn off the lights before going to bed. And each light switch is in a different place, so you need to walk around to turn it off. The bathroom is built-in, like many other hotels. But this bathtub has no grab handles and the walls are vertical. I feel like I have to be extra careful when getting up. Washing and drying, standard weight 3kg, 500 yen.
