Hotel Lantern Gion
客人怎么说
Beautiful traditional room, great hosts. Room had wifi, towels, and a toothbrush. Bathrooms were orderly and clean with soap, shampoo and conditioner. There is one bathroom and one shower dedicated to women only, which I appreciated. In a quiet area - we were not disturbed while sleeping, despite the building being old with thin walls. Host gave us good recommendations and enjoyed chatting with us. We stayed in the largest room with courtyard views which was a bit pricey, but understandably so - beautiful views and spacious room. Felt very private.

For the price it cost us, the place exceeded our expectations. We were 6 to travel together and we had the whole second floor to ourselves. Everything was super comfortable and the staff was lovely, even helped us with restaurant suggestions and calling taxis.

The lady attending the facility was very nice to us. She gave us lots of recommendations for tourism, and also allowed us to practice our emerging japanese. The facility is very traditional so you have to share toilets and shower. Noices from the facility and other rooms can be easily heard, but people staying were generally very quiet. The location was great. And our room was very big

134 year old traditional house hosted by a lovely Aunt and her cute dog! Perfect location! The owner was super considerate, sharing recommendations and tips (in Japanese, English or Chinese). Wooden floors were super cozy, futons super comfortable and AC kept us cool/warm when needed. Would 100% book it again! 谢谢阿姨！我们非常喜欢您的兵官！希望快快有极坏再一次见！

So near kenninji temple. They have a zen garden. You could rent the entire second floor with private bathroom. Small boutique guesthouse. Great living room. It's a cosy Japanese guesthouse. Great to meet neighbours.

Location fantastic, price excellent, and very pretty room. It's in a 100+ year old building so it's a very cool experience. There is a lounge outside the rooms that has some additional amenities. The staff are super friendly and speak multiple languages.

The traditional and historical design of the house was a pleasure to stay in and appreciate, and the host has a lot of energy and enthusiasm. Additionally, the area surrounding the hotel has much to see, and most places of interest are either within walking distance or from the nearby bus stop.

This is about an authentic a stay as it can come, and I loved every minute of my time at the hotel. While not exactly sound proofed as others had mentioned I think that was part of the charm, it was like staying at someone’s house. I also think the property is just beautiful, and the owner is so kind (and her dog is so cute!!!🥺). The room was small but that was expected, especially since I’m like 195 cm / 6’5” so I already expected to be bumping my head into things. The toilets are very modern, the showers are nice, and the entire inside is very cozy. I can imagine how it might be a bit cold in the winter as other reviewers had mentioned but I had no problems being here at the end of summer/start of autumn. Will definitely be coming back next time I’m in Kyoto!!

It's very cozy in there, with a living room in the middle, a tiny garden and a typical Japanese look. It's been a pleasure to stay here for a couple of days! The staff was very friendly and helpful!
