Gion Ryokan Karaku

Gion Ryokan Karaku

10/10 Excellent
"The location is amazing! I knew making the reservation the location would come at a cost. The convenience to all the major attractions in the Gion neighborhood made the price worth it. The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. The rooms on the fourth floor have deep bathtubs to soak in after a long day of sightseeing. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to experience an authentic Japanese hotel."
