I loved the spacious rooms, it's in a beautiful area there in Gion

Gorgeous little boutique hotel in Gion easy to everything
Brian M Yates, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. The room was huge, not just by japan standards but even bigger than a lot of American rooms. Only gave a four star because the bed was not comfortable, too hard for me, but that may be good for others. Hotel was a bit outdated, and themed a bit weird but that’s not really important (to us), we just care about location and cleanliness and those things exceeded our expectations.

JEAN-PAUL, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was lovely, in a quiet neighborhood. Staff was helpful. It was an easy walk from the Gion train station, but not many restaurants close by that weren't already completely booked for the evening. We had to walk a little further, but the atmosphere of Gion was delightful.
JoAnn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easily walkable from gion but on a quiet side street. Easy access to transit within 5 min walk
Andrew, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Out dated building but large room. The breakfast was simple with no laundry service. If you need anything it’s a few blocks to walk to the nearest store.
Bruce, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is beautiful and we were very pleased with our room. The bathroom felt luxurious! We also couldn't have asked for a better location, it is in a quiet area next to a museum, shrine, and picturesque roads. The nearby park was in full Autumn colors. Breakfast was set out on trays for all guests, and consisted of traditional Japanese foods. The coffee was delicious. The staff spoke English and were extremely helpful with advice and letting us keep our luggage on site for a few hours after we checked out. We were so happy here and would absolutely recommend this hotel to other travelers.

Very central location in the Gion district and close to underground train station. Slightly quirky hotel with a Rolls Royce in the foyer. We enjoyed our stay here.

Jarno, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was great in the middle of Gion district and I was able to walk to most of the places in the area, avoiding super crowded buses full of tourists. The rooms were pretty outdated but spacious, breakfast was simple but very nice.
Reiko, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

In between the Shopping areas and Yasaka Shrine and Park, walkable distance and within Gion District making it a good tourist location to stay in
Marcus, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cozy, character, amenities and location!

LOVED this hotel. It was near the heart of the Gion district, had a cozy retro feel, a HUGE spacious room (which I did not expect, knowing Japan) with 2 full beds pushed together vs only 1 full bed for 2 people. SO comfortable and spacious. Speaking of spacious…the bathroom was huge, complete with a toilet in a separate room, and a very large room with a jacuzzi tub, traditional onsen like showering area (not a tub, but an open wet room with a shower head and a stool), AND a private sauna. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay in Kyoto. Arigato gozaimasu!
Gabrielle, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

I have stayed at Sasarindou a number of times over the last 10 years, and was really surprised to see the poor condition this time. Part of what I like about Sasarindou is the retro charm, but now it seems like even minor repairs are not being made to keep the hotel in livable condition, which is a shame because the staff is WONDERFUL. We had tape covering areas needing repair, bleach stains on the carpet, a dirty cover on our couch and a large rip in our curtain. There were large cracks in the walls around the property. The mattress was also extremely uncomfortable and worn out. Our room smelled of old cigarette smoke and our friend’s room on the first floor smelled damp and “green” if that makes any sense- as if moss or algae was growing in it. Although the rooms seemed clean, I felt too uncomfortable to use the shower or leave my clothing on the surfaces. A side note but relevant- I brought my friend, who has cancer, on this trip. Our itinerary shifted by two days due to her treatment schedule changing. Although I booked nonrefundable rooms, I figured they would be willing to shift our booking since we were keeping the same number of nights. They declined. In the end, despite losing the money for 2 nights for 2 rooms AND paying to stay elsewhere, I am glad because after the first night we were more than happy to move to a different hotel anyway due to the poor condition. I hope they fix up this hotel because it was a real gem in a very nice location.
