We had a lovely room in a great location for temples, shines and restaurants. The staff could not be more helpful. We needed to transfer our luggage which the staff organised. Fantastic hotel.

I particularly liked the spa bath with a tv on the wall to sit and relax in and then get into my hotel pyjamas, bliss after a hard day wandering around the beautiful geology district.

Little Gem in the heart of Gion

Staying at Hotel Gion Ichirin was such a wonderful surprise. The hotel feels modern yet still carries an authentic Kyoto charm. The location is perfect—right in the heart of Gion, yet quiet and peaceful. Our room was beautiful and very comfortable, with a spacious bathroom that felt relaxing after a day of exploring. The amenities were some of the most thoughtful we’ve ever seen in a hotel—it really felt like everything was considered. The staff were attentive and welcoming, and the lobby was a lovely place to unwind. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations and made our stay in Kyoto truly memorable.

Our favourite out of the four hotels we stayed at, during our Japan trip! Very serene atmosphere, spacious, clean, beautiful room! The staff were friendly and helpful! Though they didn’t have dining or amenities, there were walkable restaurants and attractions nearby, so that didn’t bother us. They had great wifi and access to English programming on the tv.

Amazing experience. Stayed in the Premium Experience room which may be the priciest room. Very authentic Japanese vibe with the best relaxation amenities in your room. Stayed at this hotel for two days during our 2-week trip to recharge

Can’t ask for more in a hotel in Kyoto. The rooms are traditional with tatami mats. The location is great; everything is within a twenty minute walk. The staff is great!
