Rinn Kitagomon

Absolutely incredible location and the comfort of the room was second to none. Super spacious, beautiful and homey. The bathroom having a deep tub was very welcome with all the walking we did - the hotel was so central to both shopping and cultural activities that we wandered all around the city by foot! The hotel is super close to major train lines including the stations connecting to Osaka. We did two day trips to Osaka easily from our hotel, including USJ! Highly recommend if you want to city-hop out of Kyoto. The staff were super accomodating and helpful with all our enquiries or requests.

Rinn Kitagomon is in a perfect place to see Kyoto. We had a great stay. The staff at the hotel is Wonderful. They were always so helpful, kind and professional. There are so many sights that are perfectly walkable from the hotel. You'll be in an area filled with incredible small streets that you simply MUST walk on. There are plenty of restaurants and stores all around. And yet, we were never bothered by any noise from the street. I did see my first Real Geisha leaving a building in front of the hotel - after she'd had her makeup done. She looked spectacular. What a moment. I was so thrilled I couldn't move...!

Bed was comfy, room was spacious, unsure on previous reviews but the location was convenient. Not far from the train station and you can walk across the bridge to check out the riverside restaurants and where it’s mostly modern with shopping centres or on the other side which is more cultural. I just asked reception for Nespresso pods, so no issues there. We hired a car and there is a paid carpark close to the hotel. If in Kyoto again I would stay here again

Small boutique hotel in the heart of Gion, the room very spacious and fully equipped. The plus of this hotel was the staff! Kind super helpful and propositive either in solving problems and realizing your needs/wishes. Superb!

This was our third trip to Kyoto, staying in a different property each time. Rinn Kitagomon was by far our favourite. The location is superb, it’s a great balance of being in a super quiet neighbourhood but within easy walking distance of Gion, the centre of Kyoto, Kiyomizu Dera Temple and more. The room was large with a comfortable double bed and tatami floor area. Whilst there was no view from our lovely air conditioned room, it didn’t matter as we were there to rest after exploring the beautiful city. Everything was spotlessly clean, there was a Nespresso machine and access to ice, cold water and laundry facilities. Above all the staff were super helpful, Chiharu went above and beyond to help us.
