Location and the traditional set up
The toilet was too congested. I skipped the breakfast on the final morning and instead requested just rice. When I went to take it, they told rice was over. It’s a small thing and I didn’t make a fuss of it. But when u request something the previous evening and still it’s not being done is a bit of a let down.
Very stylish and spacious room, we loved the traditional bedding and details and the shower was very comfortable. Staff was also very friendly and helpful and the location in the quieter part of Gion is great
The bathroom is a bit dark, making it challenging to put on makeup. Would be great if there is a small light near the mirror Some people smoke just outside the entrance of the hotel, which blows inside the lobby making it not smell too great. But it didn’t bother us when in the room
It waa a lovely little hotel, situated close to everything in Gion and the room was spacious and beautifully decorated in traditional Japanese style with attention to every detail. There was even a coffee grinder with beans to make your own coffee! The staff were also very helpfull and organised a taxi for us to the train station. We loved our stay there and wished that we could have stayed longer...

The property’s location and amenities were perfect for the low key quiet but convenient two night stay in Kyoto. We will absolutely be revisiting the Gion Misen but for a longer time next time. The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were extra clean.

Good quality & stylish.
No space for 2 suitcases for 2 people. Tight space.
Wonderful location, on a quiet street but only a few minutes walk from the heart of Gion. Convenience store directly opposite the hotel. Room was very clear and beautifully decorated.
The laundry service is actually part of an apartment building opposite, and so did not feel as convenient as hotels who include laundry machines in the building. A small point, perhaps worth noting for some travellers.
Service from staff was exceptional.
It “looked” fancy but the beds were very hard and literally on the floor. There were no curtains or blinds so when the sun came up at 6am it woke us up (not ideal in a holiday on rest days). Very limited room for luggage they should consider getting rid of the desk to free up space. The location was ok being 10mins walk from most places and buses rather than trains were more of a thing. It was ver...Read more
Excellent location and very gracious staff.
Beds were too firm, bordering on uncomfortably hard, making for difficulty getting restful sleep.
Large room, close to everything
