Excellent location, very near points of attraction, corner to a 711, but didn’t feel like it was too in the centre of it all. Peaceful ambiance once you enter the lobby, including a lovely aroma. Front desk staff were always there and always helpful with requests we had. Room was clean and spacious, enough room to spread out and open up our suitcase. Little table with coffee and kettle and cups, fridge, and another small table. Nice sized TV. Cool design at head of bed that helped set the tone. Great air conditioning which was much needed on these humid days. We did a load of laundry during our time, and machine was straightforward. You can either opt for wash & dry, or just dry. I will say that the clothes may still be damp after finishing, in which case you might need to hang some of the clothes in your room but it will dry quick. Also option to just run through a 30 min dry cycle which works as well.

If you are looking for a smaller boutique hotel this is the place for you. Right next to a beautiful temple and short walks to everything you want and a block from the subway station. Wonderful staff and really nice rooms! Highly recommend, could not be happier with the price and what was provided other than laundry machines were not the greates.

Great stay, great location. Hotel room was clean and slightly more spacious than our Tokyo hotel. You can control your own room temp, so that was a plus- a/c worked great. There is no onsen, also no breakfast available, but 7/11 was a quick walk away. There are 2 washer/dryer units on the 1st floor. Drying took forever, but better than nothing. Overall a nice place for a few days with a convenient location!

Star rating:

Rinn Gion Kenninji is designed to represent the unrealistic space by using the motif of bamboo grove which is like an unending otherworldly scenery. It stands near Gion, the fleshpot representing Kyoto. The Hotel’s atmosphere respects the fusion of the tradition and the innovation using Japanese modern taste. We would like you to appreciate it.
