Ishibekoji Muan

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.3km from Kyoto Gion Lamp Museum
This place is INCREDIBLE! I have no other words for it other than the most pleasant stay I could ever imagine having at a traditional Japanese ryoken. We opted for daily traditional kaseki breakfasts that were served in our room with tea and coffee, would sit at the bar and chat with the staff and sample their great Japanese whiskey collection, enjoyed our beautiful spa-like bathroom with private onsen, heated floors, temperature controlled shower area, and beds so comfy, you couldn't help but fall asleep as soon as your head hit the pillow. The staff were incredibly amazing and very quick to handle any needs we had—and they were SO friendly! We had several great and long conversations with them that they felt like friends more than hotel staff. The location was great too because you were a short walk to several temples, popular tourist sites and great food but was secluded enough that you felt like you could relax and detox from the chaos of other large cities in Japan. This was one of the best experiences during our 12-day stay in Japan. I highly highly recommend. One piece of information that might be helpful, the entrance can be difficult to find but the property will message specific instructions to show the taxi drivers so whether they know English or not, they'll be able to get you close to the entrance. Once dropped off, it's just a short walk to the entrance. But trust me, it's worth the search.

CHION-IN WAJUN-KAIKAN

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.32km from Kyoto Gion Lamp Museum
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!!!

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
It’s a prime location, right next to the Yasaka West Tower Gate. I think Google Maps lead me to a parking lot, so good to note. We got in early and checked in our bags to storage, and went to visit Nishiki Market and then Kiyomizu-dera before heading back around 3P. They asked me during checkin what times I wanted to eat and if I had any food preferences. I was pleasantly surprised by this as I was planning to give anything I couldn’t eat to my boyfriend, but they made a menu just for my food preference and it was ALL delicious! Highly recommend the dinner (and allocate 2,5 hours for it since it’s multiple courses) and then visit the public bath on your way back to your room to sleep off the best meal ever. Wear the Yukata to dinner. As we checked out, he was nice enough to walk my luggage down the stairs and even hailed us a taxi. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
Really enjoyed the stay here at the Gion location. It’s situation right in the heart of the old town that exudes a Kyoto old charm atmosphere. It’s also within walking distance to Kiyomizu area and the popular Yasaka shrine. A 15min walk will bring you across the river to Shijo-dori where it’s lined with modern shopping malls, lots of eateries and the famous Nishiki market. Room is of good size, clean and funky looking. We took the one with a kitchenette which came in handy as we opted for their bread making breakfast which was really fun. Hotel staff knows little English but really friendly and helpful. There’s also some local activities organised by the hotel such as tea ceremony and local area walk that you can join to be immersed into the local culture here.

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
This homestay satisfies all my illusions about the homestay. In the core area of Kyoto, it is a three-minute walk away. It is the Yasaka Shrine, Zhienyuan, Kiyomizu Temple. After going to Takashimaya, you can walk back and put down things and continue to eat and eat. I made an appointment for dinner at Junaijing, and it took 5 minutes to go to the right. It was not too convenient. The rooms are beautifully decorated and well equipped. The children see the tatami room rolling excitedly... The whole family is satisfied with this travel choice.

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
First review. This hotel is not cheap in Kyoto, but there are no reviews. I guess not many Chinese people stay there. I stayed in a lot of big hotels in Kyoto with the intention of trying it out, because there are few hotels in Kyoto that match the price and quality. The opposite is true, you get what you pay for. So, I discovered a new treasure hotel. The appearance is unprepossessing, the interior decoration is high-end, spacious and comfortable, and the supplies are also very good. There are few reviews. Ctrip has repeatedly sent invitations for first reviews, so I will write about it.

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
Because we brought children, according to the hotel's regulations, we cannot live in a room in the old building. After arriving at the store, the staff showed us other room types and made replacements, which was very considerate.

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple
Modern, clean, exceptionally well equipped rooms in a fantastic location. We spent 5 nights at this hotel and loved every minute. The facilities are spotless, the staff are lovely and it is within an easy walk of the best geisha spotting areas (we saw many), great shopping, beautiful alleys full of restaurants and bars and the train station. Highly recommend!!
