“This hotel struck me as a serene escape within the historic Gion district, its location allowing for immersive walks through the neighborhood's authentic atmosphere. The blend of modern amenities with touches of local artistry, like the shoin-zukuri inspired stage in the restaurant, offered an appealing, layered experience. It's a place that seems to balance cultural immersion with personal space, notably through its luxurious public bath and considered hospitality.”
