CHION-IN WAJUN-KAIKAN

Higashiyama Kyoto|1.49km from Nomura Art Museum
This wonderful place is nothing like the rustic version we stayed at in Yudenaka. It is more like an upscale boutiqe hotel. Only 3 floors, but very well kept. Our room was one of the largest we experienced during the 2 weeks we were in Japan. We chose to decline the meal package as we expected we would be out during the dinner time, and did not want to commit to breakfast, as my wife is a very fussy eater. A public bath for men and a bath for women is located in the basement. Exceptionally clean and properly set up in the shower area and bath area,. I chose to take advantage of the bath each evening. It is so incredibly relaxing. The bath is not heated by thermal springs but whatever they use to heat the building. The front desk staff could not be more helpful during our stay. When a snowstorm hit Kyoto, it meant the shipping company that we chose to forward our large suitcases was no longer viable since the company cancelled all trips that day. When we got up the next morning we discovered that the taxi cab companies were not answering the phones that morning(due to snow and ice). The front desk looked at my wife and I with 4 suitcases, my cane and walker and somehow just knew that we couldnt possibly get to the Kyoto station using public transit. The tall, thin gentleman behind the desk, went outside and ran at his fastest speed, 3 blocks to find a idle taxi, ran back to us, still checking out, took all of our luggage outside to the waiting taxi, assisted with the loading, ensuring that we were safely inside and on our way before he went back inside, hopefully to have a well earned cup of tea. The service is outstanding, the meal to my eyes looked incredible. The rooms have ample space for luggage, fully stocked bathrooms, Yukatas for wearing to the bath and 2 bottles of water daily. They also include a small refrigerator. If I should be so fortunate to visit Japan again in my lifetime, this will be my must stay hotel. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH CHION-IN WAJUN KAIKAN!!! EXCELLENT STAFF AND OUTSTANING SERVICE. THANK YOU SO MJCH FOR HELPING MAKE THIS DREAM VACATION SO SPECIAL!!!

Aoi Suites at Nanzenji Modern & Traditional Japanese Style
5/51 Reviews
For a hotel booked by my parents, I only know a big Japanese villa when I check in. Very close to the Ginkakuji Temple, there is a small yard at the entrance, behind the philosophy road, it is very comfortable to take a walk in the morning. Breakfast is a pure Japanese breakfast delivered to the room outside, and the experience is good.

I took advantage of the 2020 fall GO TO and decided to stay here in Kyoto. First of all, the location is good. All the drinks in the refrigerator in the room are free, and you can also drink alcohol, so I got it early. We had dinner at Junsho, which is very close to the street. I still remember that the next morning's meal was delicious and served beautifully, with the white rice served with a wide variety of obanzai. The staff's response was also nice and wonderful.
Kyoto Nanzenji Ryokan Yachiyo
4/537 Reviews
Environment: Very good, as described in the picture. Our room comes with a very beautiful garden. We also bring our own private bathing, the bath care products are all pola, and the hair dryer is dyson. The only shortcoming is the traditional Japanese-style wooden house, which will hear the sound of walking upstairs and the room that is close to the front desk in our room. Next door is the eight thousand generations of tofu restaurant and Kaiseki cuisine. Service: The first one to receive us was a short-haired girl who helped us check in and explain the room. The service attitude was very general. I felt that I owe her money. It was the most rude Japanese I have ever met. The other one is the old uncle, he is very polite, and it is really embarrassing to take the initiative to help us carry the luggage. There is no Chinese waiter, only English or Japanese. Surroundings: It is recommended that the nearby Nanxun Temple and the no neighbors will not regret it! ! ! Beautiful like a painting, it is a 5 minute walk. If you walk for 15 minutes, recommend the philosophy, it is pure. Another famous tofu dish floating pavilion, is 3-4 minutes away.
Ryokan Genhouin
4.6/51 Reviews
The hotel is located between the Izumiya Museum and the neighboring museum, close to the Michelin three-star restaurant, Hyotei, and philosophy. It is the most private and abundant indoor location in Kyoto. The hotel has only four rooms. The courtyard is professionally designed, and it is full of Zen no matter from all angles. It is one of the Japanese hotels in Kyoto that I am most satisfied with for the time being. The rooms are modernly decorated and suitable for living. Breakfast is a set meal of the Michelin restaurant Izumi , Recommended for those who like modern and simple Japanese-style hotels
Ryokan Kanade
4.4/533 Reviews
We stayed overnight for the event at Okazaki Park. It was corresponded to a small number at night, and the front desk tended to be absent, but the response was friendly. Because it was empty, I was able to park the car for free from the morning of the day of the stay to the next day and the evening. The room was clean and had a large TV and was comfortable. However, it was a cold day with rain on the day, so the washroom of the rental open-air bath was cold and rainy, and it trembled. The temperature of the jet bus was hot and hot, so I didn't put it immediately, and it was like a punishment game of the variety program. I would like to receive it again if I have a chance because the dishes seemed good.
Heian No Mori Kyoto
3.8/531 Reviews
Visited in September 2017. It is next to Okazaki Jinja shrine on the north side of Heian Jingu shrine. If the vicinity of Okazaki kaguroya is for travel purposes, it is just right, the bus stop is close, there are supermarkets and convenience stores, and it is convenient. However, if you try to go to other areas, you can use the bus to some extent, or if you are not a car user, you will be very difficult to move. The hotel itself is quite old, but the room is renewed little by little and the interior is brand new. It seemed to be a little chighug renovation, but it is not bad. It is good to feel both nostalgia and newness. The old-fashioned tourist hotel is comfortable with a relaxed construction, complete public bath. There are several direct shuttle buses to Kyoto Station, so you can use it if you schedule it.
