We loved staying at this boutique hotel during our stay in Kyoto, and it was our favorite during our 10 day trip in Japan. We stayed in a double twin room and it is enormous given the typically room size of a hotel in Japan. I loved that there are only 4 rooms per floor and we did not once hear others entering or exiting their room. Check-In was a breeze and both front desk staff were helpful and spoke English well, and were great with some tips on places to visit. The hotel was also in a great location. It is about a 15 minute walk to Ninezaka Street and a 5 minute walk to the beautiful Kenninji Temple. The nearest train station was about an 8 minute walk. There was also a great ramen restaurant just around the corner. Again our family loved this hotel and location.

Everything about this hotel was excellent!! The staff were extremely helpful, we were able to communicate in English, offered luggage delivery and storage, and we're very communicative. The hotel is so conveniently located in the Gion area, right next to the beautiful and serene Kenninji temple which was absolutely gorgeous, easy walk to major attractions! Honestly one of the best stays we've had in Japan. Highly recommend this hotel if you want a convenient location, beautiful interior and exterior, and serene and traditional surrounding! Will be coming back here again. Thank you!

We booked the Japanese style room to accommodate 3 people. The design of the room was a very smart use of a smaller space but still felt spacious and had tasteful traditional elements. The shower and tub combo was also awesome with really good water pressure. Staff was very accommodating and kind. They were able to help us with luggage delivery as well. The hotel is in a fantastic location, walking distance to many great temples, Gion-Shijo station, the Kamo River, 7-11, great restaurants, a Kimono rental shop, and the main shopping street. Would stay here again!

I had a great time at Rinn Gion K. The staff were all super friendly and helpful with my various questions throughout my stay. The facilities were also clean and it seems like they keep the place well maintained. The location was key as well. The hotel is super close to and is somewhat in the action—the area is pretty lively for Kyoto. Because I was so close to so many attractions, I was able to easily escape back to my air conditioned room for a few minutes each midday and rest before heading onto my next adventure. Which was great in the heat!

Absolutely brilliant location in Gion. Just across the river, away from the main shopping and entertainment area but only a short scenic 8 minute walk away. Tube station nearby so getting around was easy. Just outside the hotel were numerous local restaurants both affordable and expensive. Although we never tried any one of them they always seemed to be full every time we walked by. Room was a good size, bigger than I expected and the decor was nice. Has all the amenities you would need. Staff spoke good English and were polite and helpful
