We absolutely loved our stay. Staff was so courteous and helpful. The rooms were clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great. We hope to be back! The area is so beautiful. Be sure to hike over to the waterfalls and hopefully see some wild monkeys.

The selling point of this property is the sauna and outdoor baths. We didn’t end up using the sauna (it was 90 degrees outside) so we simply enjoyed the two baths. It was nice to do a load of laundry in the middle of our trip and while we only made tea, the kitchen was convenient and useful for folks staying longer. It’s a short walk to the station and close to many things. The house is very charming and would be perfect for a family.

The spa suite at Hotel Gion Ichirin is such a dream. We loved our room and private spa amenities so much, we barely wanted to leave the hotel. It was walking distance to restaurants, shopping and attractions like Yasaka Shrine. The staff was kind and it felt like we were the only guests there because it was so quiet and we didn’t bump into other guests. It was convenient they had a free washer/dryer machine and I loved getting the matcha latte from the coffee machine in the lobby.

This is a 10 out of 10. The location at the edge of the forest is spectacular. The service is impeccable.
We are vegan and they accommodated us with
absolutely delicious meals. It is located just on the
outskirts of the Nara Deer Park where you are surrounded by a lovely forest ambience and yet you are just a short hike from the Park and its bustling surrounds. The trail just outside the Ryoken takes you
up the mountain.It is simply an awesome place!

Staying at this hotel was definitely a highlight of our trip. The location is unbeatable—right across from Kyoto Station, but as soon as you step inside, it's like entering another world. It's so peaceful that you'd never guess you were just steps from the hustle and bustle of the station.
The rooms were sleek, comfortable, and had a modern vibe. The bathroom was fantastic too—really added to the whole luxurious feel.
The staff were incredibly friendly. And get this, they even had a robot...

The service here is absolutely impeccable. I wasn't sure when booking this hotel if it would meet expectations and there was only sketches for pictures on the site, but it actually exceeded them! It was so quiet there also and in a fabulous location, close to the Castle, train station and numerous other transportation options, great food.
The gardens were lovely. At night as it was so quiet, you could hear the several waterfalls and drift off to sleep. It's also in a very pretty part of town....

This was one of my favorite hotels I have ever stayed at. The staff was so nice and accommodating. The beds were really nice and the set up was perfect for a family. So much space and a great location.
