“Kizashi The Suite Kyoto Gion sits nestled in the heart of Gion, Kyoto's geisha district, and has earned Michelin's esteem with good reason. The suites are generously sized, some even offering tatami rooms, and the spa treatments can be enjoyed in your room. The hotel's quieter location, a short walk from Gion Corner and Yasaka Shrine, makes it a fine choice.”
