Communication was effortless as all staff members spoke excellent English. The location is truly unbeatable; Yasaka Shrine (under a 5-minute walk), Hokanji Temple (10-minute walk), and Kodai-ji Temple are all within easy walking distance. There are also many charming little restaurants in the vicinity. Though close to the main shopping district, I appreciated the peaceful and relaxed ambiance, a welcome contrast to the busier commercial areas. However, the hotel's facilities aren't extensive, especially considering the price point. The bedding was spotless, and the breakfast was excellent.

The location is superb, just a stone's throw from Ninen-zaka and Sannen-zaka. It's perfect for evening strolls and photos, as it's less crowded and the views are stunning. The room itself was spotless, though the facilities felt a little dated. Overall, I was very happy with my stay and would definitely recommend it.

Banda Down the beat hotel ever. Traditional interior and breakfast truly are the most marvelous experience you can ever wish for. The stuff is very kind and helpful. Everyone should stay in a Ryokan at least once in their lives.

The hotel's location isn't ideal, and the rest of the experience was quite mediocre. I wouldn't recommend it.

Highly recommended. 1. The breakfasts are amazing. Looked forward to it every morning during the trip. 2. The room we booked includes 2 beds and 2 futons, I like that combination, suitable for the elderly who may have problems sleeping on the floor. My kids also said the futon is super comfy. 3. The location is very convenient too, within walking distance to many places of interest. 4. If you prefer to have no room service during the stay, you can also opt out of room service, and the hotel will gift you a box of cookies as a replacement for that option. I like that. 5. We booked a Kaiseiki dinner one day in advance during our stay, a bit expensive, but the experience was amazing, and we had the entire restaurant for ourselves for that dinner. But, I won't recommend booking all dinners (with the room) though, there are a lot of good meal options around the area. So definitely should explore more; must try more options in Gion as there are many amazing Japanese places within walking distance. Overall a really good experience. Thank you.
