APA Hotel Kyoto Gion EXCELLENT

3.0 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very Good, (1001)
"Loved this location, super close to everything and next door is Yasaka shrine. Only a 15 minute walk to Ninenzaka. Building is currently under construction so was a little hard to find in the beginning since the sign was covered. Was a little hot in the room, they only have heat and fan but when the fan was turned on it would just have warm air. The window was unable to open since front was under construction."

"I cannot speak highly enough about this ryokan. From check in to check out the staff was very attentive to our needs and helpful with whatever we needed. The rooms were clean and traditional style, but included a tv with streaming services, which I loved as a traveler! And the onsen was like heaven after walking around Kyoto in February. It was always clean and well organized. When I come back to Japan, I will def stop here to rest!"

Kyoto Ryokan The Kinoe

4.0 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (282)
"Overall a very wonderful Ryokan expierence! We paid for both the dinner and breakfast, both of which were very sensible and delicious. I do believe that it is worth the extra added cost, especially the dinner, which is served in our room. The breakfast was served in a dining room on the 2nd floor, which was still nice but definitely a different feeling. We had the choice to choose from three different time slots: I think we ate at 6:30PM (latest available) and 8:00 AM (2nd option). I will say...
