Kyoto Hotels near Old Rissei Elementary School

I just moved from a 4 star to this 3 star and the beds are bigger, comfier and the room is more spacious. Self check in was simple, Wi-Fi works and AC too.

Just enjoyed our 5D4N at Kyoto & we stayed at Hiz Hotel Gion Shirakawa as our base. Very charming apartment hotel.

HIDDEN GEM! The layout gives you that Japanese feeling. Bed is on the floor just like they do it. We absolutely loved it.
You are dead smack in the middle of the action during the day.

Just perfect.
The building is incredible, in the nicest street, with a cute coffee place right below it. The whole area is very nice with many things to see. The rooms are gorgeous and very large.

Room was very chill, but mattress was very hard.
I could Hear the springs when I was breathing.
Other that that nothing to Complain.

Our family booked the entire 3 rooms on the 8th floor. The reception area is small and there are racks with locks provided to leave your luggage.

This is a hotel that truly makes you feel comfortable and eager to return.
The service quality is outstanding.

I had a very pleasant stay so I’m giving it 5 stars. Very close to the train station and 3 convenience stores. At scheduled times, they would provide free udon and alcoholic beverages.

It was my first experience in a capsule room in Japan but everything was great. The room is always clean even the shared accommodation.

Really solid capsule hotel. The capsules are quite nice, very comfortable and have everything you need. Locker is a decent size, bigger than some other capsule hotels.

The hotel, location, and amenities were great. Staff at the front desk spoke great English and the luggage forwarding was a fantastic touch. The room was spacious and comfortable.

Excellent hotel centrally located in Gion, highly walkable to top sights, restaurants, small local shops and massive shopping malls. The staff is great, friendly and efficient.

Stayed here in January with my husband and 1 year old. The apartment was great for someone with a small child as it was mostly baby proof.

Stayed for one night and absolutely loved this place. The location is perfect for families—right in Kyoto and close to everything.

The guesthouse is in a perfect location – quiet, yet very central. It’s exceptionally clean and perfectly equipped.

Absolutely amazing, centrally located and affordable. Li, the owner, goes put of his way to make you feel at home. Lots of toiletries to use and laundry service.

Words cannot express just how much we're indebted and grateful to the kindness if this hotel's owners.

Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are quite big for japan standards. Comfy. Its ij a great location near gion or bus stops and a subway station to get about kyoto.

It was an interesting experience. For reference I’ve only stayed at one capsule hotel before.

The facility is so clean, well maintained, friendly staffs, the breakfast is very good, unlimited rice and toppings are plus points.

This is a great location if you want to get away but still be close to the action.

We had a lovely 2 night stay. The location is fantastic, close to restaurants the nishiki markets and all public transport. The rooms are large clean and comfortable.

Large and spacious room with a bit of a view. Quiet location but still within walking distance of a lot.

Phenomenal stay!

What a pleasant stay! Nice rooms, all well managed. Breakfast could be better, I mean they are ok, but could be more rich. Otherwise, I definitely would stay again.

It's a good hotel of you come here alone. The room are not big, I think it's a standart of hotel room in Japan.

We stayed at Hotori Villa for 4 nights with 2 adults and 2 children. The villa was traditional and tranquil. It was so beautifully decorated. Every appliance we needed was available.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The experience from beginning to end was one of kindness luxury and exploration.

We stayed at Gion Kyoka in Kyoto in late January 2026 and had a wonderful experience.

Gion Kyoka felt like a home away from home. The room was spacious, the staff were friendly and the location was ideal, within walking distance to everything.

I really enjoyed my stay!

Great rooms for a great price. Modern, comfortable and stylish. Bathrooms have a soaking tub and shower. Comfortable dining area to spread out if you are in Kyoto for a couple of days.

100% loved this hotel, staff is amazing and speak great English, rooms are spacious and very clean and comfortable. The whole hotel feels brand new and we loved the service and quality provided.

This is a small hotel, without any cafe/restaurant or bar. What they do have are comfortable large rooms, with fantastic bathrooms. Friendly staff. A well functioning laudry facility.

The double twin is really 2 double beds. This room is amazing. The shower is a separate room and is heating like a steam room. The toilet is unlike anything I have seen.

We stayed at the Yoin Hotel Kyoto Gion four nights during our 10 days in Japan for autumn colors. The hotel is ideally located in the middle of the Gion.

Perfect for a family of us 5. Located in a.
Great location to walk to everything with a very helpful and friendly staff.

Location was very good as it was in a quiet side street although close to quite a busy tourist track to a nearby temple. The person who checked us in was very helpful.

Great Staff and big rooms.

Very nice connecting rooms for a family if staying beyond 2-3 nights.

Staff were exceptional. The hotel seemed brand new and was very, very nice. The lobby tea / lounge space was amazing with a great selection of teas along with a toaster oven & a microwave.

I‘M ONLY RATING THE COFFEE SHOP.
Very cute little coffee shop and homestay. They have a lot of home made bagels that are served with cream cheese or some other toppings. The bagels are nicely chewy.

Absolutely amazing food and very kind people, would recommend visiting if in Kyoto and the ham cheese bagel plus scrambled eggs is fantastic.

We stayed for two nights. Very convenient location-close to everything but there was not enough water given. The apartment is big but somehow there was no closet/space for cloths.

​We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were clean and surprisingly spacious for Japan, and the bathroom facilities were a major highlight. They provide complimentary coffee, tea and water in the lobby.

The room was comfortable, clean and spacious.
Perfect location, close to the bus stop and to Pontocho, Gion and in general the nightlife of the city.
Great value!

Really enjoyed my stay at Waka Kyoto Kawaramachi. We stayed for 4 nights in a twin room. The room was clean, quiet, and the air conditioning worked well.
