The location of the hotel was perfect for our stay in Kyoto this fall. Walking distance to so many temples, gardens, steps from the Geisha district, shopping & restaurants. The pictures I saw on google maps of the street and immediate surroundings looked a little iffy, but it was just fine, and very quiet. The hotel was absolutely spotless and very comfortable; the staff fabulous, and the small restaurant well run with a very decent breakfast at a reasonable price. It is also only a short block from a 7/11 C-store and a tad further to a small Fresco market, which was handy. Don't laugh (like I did initially) 7/11's in Japan are really good at what they do.

We stayed six nights, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The room was so thoughtfully designed and appointed, it made it spacious and easy even for a long stay. The Gion Elite Terrace is also located ideally - very near everything but no heavy tourist traffic. Lovely!
