Location and space 10 out of 10
Family with 3 teenaged boys. The bedroom had 2 full sized beds. The boys slept in the mat sleeping area. Not a lot of room in either room for luggage but the living room and dining area gave us ample space to spread out. The shower was great. We paid to use the spa twice and that was nice. Location was beyond perfect. It was close to everything. We stayed in four different hotels on this trip and this was by far everyone’s favorite space.

Great Value, Comfortable stay.
Great location, good sized room. Self-storage of luggage for early arrival a big plus. 15 and 21 year-olds slept on couches with provided linens. Said the couches were pretty hard. Still overall, highly recommend.

Very clean, spacious & convenient location with everything you need (family mart & lawson directly downstairs that was handy). Whilst it was virtual reception, the staff was usually wondering about and can easily call to speak to someone. Overall a very pleasant stay with the family.

Fantastic hotel within walking distance of a metro station. Very conveniently placed, being close to both a metro and a train station that’ll get you where you want to go in Kyoto. Quiet area, but also within walking distance of a popular downtown/commercial shopping district/market with lots of food options, so it’s an ideal location.

Not pleasant
Hotel looks pretty new but don’t provide service at all during my four nights stay which make the experience not pleasant. They don’t change towel, and no service at all. No one at lobby, all self service. Besides the newer facility, I didn’t find the stay enjoyable. And sensor light at all way is a very stupid design that wakes up everyone at night when a person step into the room. I Wouldn't stay here again.

Minn gion was an excellent hotel for our short stay in Kyoto! It was centrally located to a lot of cool areas in Kyoto but far enough from the noise and action. The room was VERY spacious and a lot nicer than we expected. The price was the best part for four nights we paid almost 400 USD. It was very convenient having a luggage area where we can leave our stuff for the day on the day we checked out! When we first got the room we were literally the first room next to the lobby and I was a big worried about noise. But the building is new and pretty soundproof so we didn’t have any issues with noise!

Know it’s not a hotel, it’s an apartment😅
It’s no-person apartment with over-video screen receptionist available and do not expect hotel service. I ship my luggage, told never to do that. They do not accept any delivery, so be careful. Great room with kitchen but no basic spices so buy or bring your own. Love their room. Highly recommend if you don’t need any help.

This residence hotel was very well located on the Gion neighborhood of Kyoto. Different from all the others we stayed in Japan, we did not feel it was secure enough. The front door was closed at midnight but anyone could get in the elevator all day long. Did not like that. We were offered a washer/dryer in the room and the type of room we chose came to find out it did not have the washer/dryer. Too impersonal for our taste.

The property was in close proximity to Gion and several shrines. Check-in and check-out process was very easy. Room was very spacious and plenty of space for the four of us. I would suggest that they replace/upgrade the pillows as they’re really hard and flat. Other than that, the property and room was perfect for our needs.

The suite was very modern. Was clean. Take shoes off at door, slippers providers. Easy checkin. Great location—two small groceries within 1 block. Walkable area—easy to walk to beige and cross too the restaurant district. I can’t say enough about out stay with them

Minn Gion is located about 12~15 min walk away from Sanyo Keihan station where there are Keihan line and Tozai line. There is a family store located downstairs. Nearby, approximately 5~10 min walk, you get to various restaurants and embrace in the amazing culture around. The room we had, was for 4. All of us slept well though it was sleeping on the mattresses. There was fridge, toaster, microwave for your use too. Also, a bath tub but we did not use much as too exhausted but the time we came back. There are two washing machines and dryers at level 2. Shared. And you need to ensure you have always 100 yen as there was no money changer. Not even in the family mart. We used hands free luggage delivery service coming into and out of Minn Gion. Coming into Minn Gion, we need to collect our luggages from Yamato Transport office (approximately 20 min walk, took taxi back to Minn Gion). Sending out our luggages was a breeze (almost) as the family mart provided the service (you need to fill up the form on the next collection area, and thank goodness the family mart has screen captures on how you can do so). Overall, while Minn Gion is self service check in property, the communication via LINE can be further improved on.

This is a great option for families , very spacious and good amenities. It has a good sized kitchen, we had a laundry too which was a bonus and a wet room. Overall it was a great spacious place in a convenient location, and theres a family mart next door. Our only issue was that the rooms had mosquitos so some family members woke up with lots of itchy bites. In addition the main room had a terrible old sock like smell. They do need to fix that. We had the humidifier on which helped a bit. If you arent too bothered by smells or a few bites, its def a great option for a stay in Kyoto.

Only a couple of blocks from the busy streets of Kyoto but a world apart, as it was uncrowded and felt safe. We were on the second floor facing the street corner, so did hear cars and people's voices. There's a FamilyMart store on the ground floor which was convenient, but that also meant that people congregated below our window to smoke. Overall a nice property.
