Great location!
Great location. Walkable to Gion, shops and restaurants. The staff are great and helpful. The room was amazing, however I found it odd that our room didn't have any windows we could look out, but it was still a nice room. The lounge area was really nice, in fact all the common areas were beautiful.

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.

Calm and beautiful hotel in Kyoto
Wonderful stay in Kyoto. Gion Ichirin is in a great spot for sightseeing and shopping, and is in a very beautiful part of the city. The service is efficient and unobtrusive. Clean towels left every day and the room is cleaned on request. Lovely room with a fabulous bath, perfect to come back to after hours of walking!

Great stay in Osaka
Hotel is in a great area for Gion tourist area, such as Kiyomizu Dera & Maruyama Park are both within a short walking distance. Bus and trains are 10-15 min walk. Plenty of great restaurants close by. The hotel is serene and tranquil and you cannot hear noise from street or other guests in next rooms. Rooms are spacious, even the bath tub was huge ! Free laundry available, but you need to supply own detergent. Private Onsen on 4th floor, that can be booked through concierge. Internet was great and staff were friendly & helpful.

One of the larger rooms in Japan in general.
The staff was amazing, patient, and extremely helpful especially when I needed to send my luggage to an AirBnB in Tokyo instead of lugging it around with me in public transportation.
Super convenient if you want to go to the crowded places in Gion district early in the morning since they are such a short walk from the hotel.

Spa like hotel
Spa like Japanese style boutique hotel right in Gion for adults. So relaxing, quiet, with the most comfortable beds!! The only thing they could improve on is being more eco friendly. They drop off new towels everyday which is a bit much. Plus there’s lots of bottled water. offering pitchers for the rooms which can be filled up in the lounge would be a more eco friendly solution. Other than that I would highly recommend and will definitely come back again!

We had a lovely stay, a beautiful hotel in a nice quiet spot, but not far from anything. The rooms are beautiful, the space was lovely especially having just come from Tokyo where rooms can be snug. All the amenities you could possibly need, the pyjamas were so nice and comfortable I was gutted I couldn’t purchase them. All the staff are super friendly we always got a very warm welcome! I will definitely stay here again.
