    A magical place where calmness reigns. You can really feel peace and tranquility here. The spaces are traditional in the best sense of the word, and absolutely beautiful — it almost makes you want to just stay there without going anywhere else!...

    Wonderful place, we immediately felt at home. Lovely staff, beautiful rooms and a great location to explore Gion, one of the nicer parts of Kyoto (if you ask me). The (shared) toilets and bathrooms were good and clean and with plenty of capacity...

Property information

Our hostel is located in the historical district of 'Gion' area where 'maiko' walk around, and just a couple of minutes walk to some popular temples and shrines. So the surrounding area is very quiet, beautiful and calm. We don't provide any food service but there are a Japanese style tatami floor living room with fully-equipped kitchen. A dining area with table and chairs for those who are not yet attached to the Japanese style. Also an observation room where you can look over a Japanese garden on the third floor. ▲NOTICE▲ **Please note that we are "ryokan-style hostel" so we DO NOT PROVIDE any food service and we DO NOT HAVE a bath-tub/Onsen.** **Our hostel has preserved the beauty of the old buildings, so soundproofing is not perfect and there are no lifts/elevator. It is a great place to stay if you want to enjoy the old Japanese style of accommodation, but not for those who want to spend quiet time in their rooms.** **We are afraid that our hostel is not designed to accommodate big groups, so we might ask you to cancel reservations if you are a big group (we can only accommodate a group up to 4 people in our Mixed dormitory, up to 3 people in Female dormitory).** **We have a policy of limiting the length of stay at our hotel.** **We take only cash for the Kyoto City tax (200yen/guest/night) because we have to separate with your room fee payment. Kyoto City tax will rise from next year.** Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! Gion Ryokan Q-beh
