Hotel Sasarindou

VERYYYY SPACIOUSSS!!! The room I got for single occupancy was like triple the size of standard Japanese hotel. I was super impressed by the size of the room with big toilet and big bathroom with jacuzzi!! The room was really clean with beds and sofa and big heater ( I guess during summer it will be AC). The location is 3-5 minutes walk to famous Yasaka Shrine and the distance to famous Ninenzaka and Kiyomosu dera is walkable. Very quiet. No noise at night which is really good. The hotel front desk can communicate in English and very helpful.

Breakfast was a bit small and cold but I didn’t expect much anyway. It was fine for me though it could be improved.

Great Location, very nice front desk person. Close to the Gion-Shijo Station, walking distance to Nishiki Market and easy to get to from Kyoto Station. The rooms are comfortable, the Japanese style tub/shower area was great, large water bottle in the room along with shampoo, conditioner (rinse) and body soap. Everything else is located on a table outside the elevator on the ground level. There are two or three entrances. One is open 24 hours and the others get locked after a certain time. It is right around the corner from a great Takoyaki restaurant and walking distance from a Family Mart. I would definitely stay again.

Absolutely NOTHING bad to say. I would stay here again alone or with my family. Definitely a great place to stay.

Our room was exceptionally spacious, a rarity in Japan, and we fell in love with the charming decor. The bathroom was equally impressive, boasting a luxurious jacuzzi bathtub – truly splendid. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of Gion. What amazed us even more was the surprisingly affordable price for such a fantastic experience. Both the accommodation and the neighborhood were simply perfect. I loved every moment of my stay and will definitely be returning.

One drawback was the limited breakfast options, which were exclusively Japanese without any Western choices available. This might be a consideration for travelers preferring a more diverse breakfast selection.

The hotel is in an excellent location, close to Gion Shijo subway. Access is by a lovely little laneway with a very peaceful ambience. Although the hotel is close to a busy road, our room was very quiet even with the window open, and had a great view over Gion to the mountains to the east. The room was much bigger than expected.

The bathroom was huge and included a spa bath, but the shower was hard to work out.

Room was very large. As with my earlier booking and room, the bathroom taps leak, there are occasional ants, and the style is dated, but the hotel just showing its age and no harm done. All staff from cleaning staff to front of house try very hard to do their best. Sometimes English is a bit hard to communicate with, but the location and the good staff attitude and price made this exactly what I wanted in Kyoto. I would return anytime!

already mentioned this

wonderful location, located right in the heart of gion district! the staff were super friendly and helpful, helping us with all sorts of things including getting taxis and escorting us into the taxi. there was always someone situated at the front desk, even late at night, and it helped us feel extra safe when it got dark. the breakfast was so hearty and homemade by an old japanese lady, it was great too! the rooms were a little old, but it was clean and our toilet was huge!

It’s location is great- central to the Gion area. Close to rail and bus transport. A surprisingly quiet space in bustling, tourist filled Kyoto. Twenty minutes from Kyoto main JR rail station. Staff were very attentive and helpful. The breakfast of traditional food (included in price) was presented Japanese style on a tray, with juice, green tea, coffee available.

Nothing to report here.

The bed was comfortable and the room was very spacious. I loved how it was an 80s vibe. It was in the Gion district and close to many shrines and temples. It wasn’t too far from Nishiki market either. The bathroom was so big and spacious I loved it.

The breakfast didn’t have to much options since each tray was already prepped and everyone got the same thing. Not too much variety.

Helpful and friendly staff. Excellent decor. A little dated, but in the best ways. You can tell that quality and aesthetic attention to detail were invested in, and it all holds up. Also, it's super quiet for being so close to all the action.

Nothing. A great place to unwind after a big day of walking around.

Fantastic value for money. Excellent location but quiet, great room large with full size bath. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was basic but good and filling as it was free I can't complain at all!
