Beautiful hotel and room. Only negative for some rooms would be the sound of the trains that you can see from the upper levels. They do stop running after 11? But start up again early. It’s wasn’t super loud but a light sleeper would be woken.

My expectations were exceeded! A great location, only 7 min walk to subway station. An easy 15 min walk to Gion district. The room was a perfect size and clean. The largest we had on our entire Japan trip. We were able to launder our clothes at no cost which saved packing room. Everyone was kind and very helpful. I would stay here again if ever back in Kyoto. Thanks for a great accommodation!

Beautiful and great service
I highly recommend Hotel Higashiyama for trips to Kyoto. The location is ideal in a quiet area walking distance to Gion and shrines as well as the subway station. The architecture of the hotel is beautiful and filled with gorgeous design and art in the courtyard and hallways. The service is five star level and I would like to thank the hotel shuttle driver from Kyoto Station and the bellhop for an excellent arrival experience. I hope to be back at this hotel soon!
