A 105-room hotel a short walk south of Shijo on Yamatooji. Gion-Shijo station is two minutes away, the Minamiza theatre is next door, and Hanamikoji and Kennin-ji are a quick stroll. It has a large basement bath, rare for a central Kyoto hotel, and six designer room types from Western to tatami. Walk the Gion lanes at night, then soak: that is the routine here.
