Hotels near Philosopher's Path Kyoto

"The most tasteful, kind and comfortable boutique hotel in Kyoto. So much nicer than a big chain and near the Higashiyama sights"

"If you can afford to splurge, this place is a treasure. Service like I’ve never experienced, and beautiful rooms and a great location. The restaurants are fancy French, also extremely good, but we didn’t dine in. This place is world-class.😊"

"We had an amazing 3 day stay at Art Mon Zen. From the moment we arrived to leaving, the staff were exceptional and extremely attentive. Probably the best hotel stay in Japan. Overall, the room was very comfortable and relaxing after a long day visiting all the sensational sights in Kyoto. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to stay near the main Gion district in Kyoto."

"Gorgeous boutique hotel with a homey vibe. Concierge and housekeeping are around 24h and constantly followed up on our wishes. Great airport transfer and restaurant bookings. For those who like privacy. Furniture and amenities are high class. Great views over river, shrines and mountainside."

"An exceptional stay from start to finish. Gracious hospitality, a true time capsule with updates in all the right places. The japanese breakfast every day was truly memorable, and the coffee shop on the property was beautiful as well. I could not recommend more, 10/10 stay, worth the price! We stayed in the private cabin and it was perfect. "

" A serene, modern, and stylish place with a wonderfully cosy atmosphere. Located in a quiet area of the city yet still easily accessible to all the main attractions. The beautiful garden and surrounding grounds are perfect for peaceful morning walks, and the elegant breakfast was a lovely way to start the day. I would definitely recommend it."

"We had an excellent stay, room was extremely large, very clean and the bathroom was amazing!"

"We had a very comfortable stay and really enjoyed this place. The location is great—about a 3-minute walk to the nearest bus stop, with just two stops to the Ninenzaka/Sannenzaka area. There’s also a train/subway station about 5 minutes away with easy access to Osaka. We were able to walk to all our restaurants around the Nishiki Market area. The neighborhood is very quiet, with little traffic and even a temple right next door, which added to the peaceful atmosphere. The room was excellent,...
