This a beautiful hotel located in walking distance to Gion and most of the tourist spots! Also close by to bus stops if you prefer :) The service was excellent, all staff members we interacted with were super lovely! The room we selected was a great size for two of us with four suitcases 😆 check in was easy & smooth and the amenities were great too.

I can't recommend this hotel enough. The staff and service were 5 stars, with one staff member walking me to the corner to get a taxi in the freezing cold at 5am. The rooms were large by Japanese standards and had everything you need. The ice machine and filtered water in the lobby is really handy with filling drink bottles on the way in and out of the hotel. Walking distance to supermarkets and restaurants.

If you're looking for an affordable hotel that offers easy access to historic Gion (and the rest of Kyoto), Terrace Kiyomizu is a great option. The rooftop terrace and complimentary beverage machine were also much appreciated.

At first glance, it looks like a modest little hotel, and it is. The staff is what makes it all worth staying here. Upon check-in I had an interesting request, to say the least, and the gentleman behind the desk literally walked me from the hotel to where i needed to go. Cute little kitchen area in the lobby for coffee, tea and water. Biggest fridge you’ll get inside a Japanese Hotel, and the room itself is frankly bigger than APA Hotels i usually stay in. On-site laundry and a rooftop deck provide a sweeping view of Kyoto as well as the temples nearby. I can’t express how nice the staff are and any time I am visiting Kyoto, this is my new go-to property. Complimentary Amenity shelf and water bottle during your stay, and a super clean property. About 10-minute walk to Kiyomizu Temple and maybe a 10-15 minute walk if that to the Gion District of Kyoto.

Friendly home base with great view

With a bus stop on multiple lines with frequent service just three minutes walk away and a marvelous view from the rooftop terrace, this hotel would already be a great choice. The comfortable and friendly atmosphere made it extra special and I look forward to staying here again next time.

I ordered a room with two bed and none smoking. When I got there they only have a smoking room for me. I didn’t have a choice but to stay there for one night. I could sleep because of the smoking smell. Finally, they got me a room with one bed only. Didn’t have a choice but took it.
