Experienced the Gate Hotel in Kyoto
#cherryblossom2024
The gate hotel in Kyoto is one of the best hotel for your cherry blossom stay . If you coming on the season you can easily view it from the room it’s awesome and amazing.
The room was comfortable and bed was good as well. The layout is simple , the toilet is small but manageable . Recommended to stay in this hotel is affordable but its valued for money. Lovely.

Travel Guide, Kyoto Treasure Hotel
I chose to stay here for the last three days of my trip to Kyoto because the location is very good.
It's less than a 5-minute walk to Takashimaya shopping, 3 minutes to stroll along the Kamo River, and there's a Blue Bottle Coffee right downstairs, so you can get a cup every day without having to queue.
The hotel's Japanese breakfast is limited to 30 servings per day, first-come-first-served, and cannot be reserved. Honestly, the taste is really nothing to write home about; it's all cold, not as good as the Eggs Benedict and French toast from the Western breakfast, and the buffet items are also quite good.
If you arrive early, be sure to get a room with a mountain view. We wanted to switch to a mountain view room the next day and had to pay extra.
Also, you must reserve the hotel's bicycles in advance, otherwise, you'll end up like me, foolishly asking only to find out that they're not available for just anyone to ride. This was also not communicated by the hotel beforehand.
The front desk's English is not very good, making communication difficult. Overall, the value for money is very high, except for the lack of hot springs and soaking pools, everything else is good. The rooms are also big enough to fit three suitcases without any pressure, recommended.

It is a newly opened hotel that renovated a historic primary school become the main entry of the hotel. This is a great architectural project and really like Kyoto.
