Good for business trip

Clean, comfortable room with a decent sized working desk in a busy but still tucked away Gion location. A range of restaurants nearby. No breakfast/restaurant available, but 7-11 is a 5 minutes walk away.

2/10 Poor

The best part about this hotel is that it is near everything you’d want to see in Kyoto, and if not the station is close by. I feel like having to pay for the room to be cleaned whilst at a Hotel and not an AirBnb is crazy, and even when the hotel room was cleaned it remained dirty. We didn’t get our suitcases put into our room despite being told we would. Also we had bugs in our room. Not sure if they were bed bugs, but we and my wife got bit a lot. The hotel was the worst part of our trip to Kyoto

We stayed at the Rinn Gion Kenninji for 2 nights in September and it was one of our favorite places to stay it during our trip to Japan. There are temple grounds behind the hotel which was really cool to see from our room. A lot of locations were within walking distance (max 20 minute walk away). We will probably consider staying here again if we visit in the future.
