Fodor's Expert Review Gion Hatanaka

Minami-mon-mae, Kyoto, Kyoto-fu, 620-0967, Japan

Editor's Note: This property is currently undergoing renovations.

South of Yasaka Jinja, this elegantly appointed ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) is near Maruyama Park close to the green foothills of the Eastern Mountains and nearby temples. The staff welcomes guests warmly and is always available to attend to their needs. Spacious tatami rooms overlook towering bamboo gardens from glassed-in balconies. Packages with various meal and other options are worth checking out. One includes dinner and entertainment by maiko-san.
