5 minutes on foot from Gion Sanjo Station, 3 minutes on foot from Higashiyama Station, 8 minutes on foot from Yasaka Shrine, 2 minutes on foot from convenience store [Zeroin Gion Sanjo] 2nd floor

Kyoto Sanjo, where the accommodation is located, is very well located and is very convenient for shopping, sightseeing, and dining. One of the things we are proud of is that we use Shigaraki-yaki pottery, one of the six ancient pots of Japan, in the bathtub so that visitors can spend a wonderful night in Gion. It is a 3-minute walk to Gion Shirakawa, and the road along the river is a popular spot with cherry blossoms in spring and willows in summer, attracting many people. But my favorite time is when there are no people at midnight. The river surface is glittering and magical, like another world. A few minutes walk away, there are Seion-in Temple and Chion-in Temple, famous for their autumn leaves, and in the spring, you can walk to Yasaka Shrine, famous for its weeping cherry blossoms Please experience "Gion" at my accommodation! We look forward to your visit.
