Great hotel close to the touristy part of Kyoto. We enjoyed the short walk to the shopping center and dining area with lots of options. Also close to Gion, the old town.

Pretty great place. I wasn’t at the hotel much but they have a couple of attached restaurants. Both Nishiki market and Gion are walking distance, so that was a big plus for me. The closest station is also like a 3-5 min walk.

This is our second time staying at Hotel Gimmond in Kyoto. It is a great hotel with clean, comfortable but small rooms. The hotel is close to the subway station and to restaurants and shops. And is a 15 min walk away from the Imperial Palace.

An older hotel in a great location, not exactly right in the middle of things but an easy walk to Karasuma, Kawaramachi, Ponto-cho and the riverside. My single room was small but comfortable and the bath was new and clean. Especially given the reasonable price I have no complaints.

편안한 호털 분위기

편안했습니다.
하지민 숙박세를 너무 많이 받았습니다.
룸당이 아니고 인당 200엔....너무했다.
