Gion, 2.3 km from Kounji Temple

"I had the most wonderful stay in Kyoto at this charming hotel. It has the traditional Japanese feel, but doesn’t feel dated; they did a beautiful job with the interiors. Also I needed to send a bag to a residential address in Tokyo and since their partner only delivers to hotels, Julie went above and beyond to help me figure out the best way to do it on my own and she even filled the form in Japanese for me. I will most definitely be staying here again whenever I’m back in Kyoto."

Top Kounji Temple Hotel Reviews

Hilton Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is five stars, huge rooms very modern very elegant. The lobby staff is amazing. The restaurant is amazing. We didn’t upgrade on our room that included a lounge on the ninth floor, which was amazing as well. Plus a buffet downstairs at the lobby. Overall, this is beyond a five star hotel, plus it has an amazing location close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay definitely coming back."

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

"Had such a pleasant stay that I returned for a second time! Very clean, traditional style ryokan, with very helpful staff. I appreciate that they spoke English, provide laundry machines, and helped in calling us a taxi to the station during checkout. If you're interested in breakfast, specify it in your booking. If not, you may be able to schedule in breakfast subject to availability. Be mindful and respectful by keeping voices low; it is a peaceful and quiet space. Great location close to bus stops and convenience stores."
