Yamamoto Ryokan - A traditional Gion district accommodation with indoor public bath and shared facilities
Located in Gion, the cultural heart of traditional arts, this Kyoto hotel features tatami-floored rooms with Japanese futon bedding and shoji paper screens. Yamamoto Ryokan provides air-conditioned accommodations equipped with LCD TVs, electric kettles, and free toiletries. The property includes an indoor public bath and shared bathroom facilities. A restaurant serves daily meals, while a vending machine offers additional refreshments. The ryokan stands 0.5 miles from Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Kennin-ji, with Maruyama Park also within walking distance. Yamamoto sits a 5-minute walk from Kiyomizu-Gojo Train Station, connecting guests to wider Kyoto attractions including the 3-kilometer-distant Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine and Nijo Castle.

“In Kyoto's atmospheric Gion district, this traditional ryokan distinguishes itself with exceptional service. The indoor public bath is a definite highlight, unusual for many smaller hotels and quite welcome. Its proximity to Kiyomizu-dera Temple and other cultural treasures makes it a worthwhile choice for immersive experiences.”
