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!

Wonderful hotel. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond to help us after one of us left something valuable behind in the room. Hotel has a laundry we could use which was great to wash clothes in the middle of our trip. The coffee machine in the Lobby was really good and the fridge of complimentary water bottles was so appreciated each morning a we headed out to explore the city! Great location, easy walk to the train station or shopping area of Gion. Highly recommend!

Overall outstanding and beautiful. Not much space to unpack in our room but we managed. Bed was super comfortable. Laundry took a long time. Not a great machine. Staff was great and friendly. The free drinks and noodles were a nice addition. Would definitely stay here again with less luggage.

Brilliant hotel, very beautifully made and with a lot of well thought amenities. We especially liked the beautiful lighting and the large bed! And we had a jacuzzi. The only downside was the TV sound, it was really quiet no matter what we did
