    beautiful room
    noisy coffee machine

    Beautifully designed Junior Suite with a stunning view.

    The coffee machine was disturbingly loud in the early morning.

    comfortable corner
    amazing onsen
    limited dining
    difficult access

    Staying at Hotel The Celestine Kyoto Gion was fantastic! The room was stylish and super comfortable with a cozy corner for relaxing. The onsen was amazing for unwinding after a day of exploring. The location was perfect, just a short walk from all the beautiful Gion streets and temples.

    Difficult to find nearby dining options.
