GOOD NATURE HOTEL KYOTO has a fitness centre, garden, a restaurant and bar in Kyoto. With free WiFi, this 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. The property is 1.8 km from the city centre and 400 metres from Gion Shijo Station. The room condition was great and spacious. We were with my 6 year-old son and only booked a wide double bed which was huge enough for three of us, but they provided us with an extra single bed at no cost which we appreciated very much. Also during the stay it was our wedding anniversary, and they prepared a present. How sweet of them!! This is new hotel, so all facilities are clean and well maintained. The location was perfect, we could walk to Bontoncho, Simo gawa, Nishiki Market and other places without any hassle. We definitely would stay here again when we come back to Kyoto. Thank you all staff at Good Nature Hotel for your warm and kind hospitality!

Open from September 2017, The Celestine Kyoto Gion is set in Kyoto, a 10-minute walk from Gion-Shijo Station. Guests can walk to Kiyomizu-dera Temple in 15 minutes from the property. Free WiFi is featured throughout the property and private paid parking is available on site.The property provides a pick-up service from Kyoto Station Hachijo Exit to Hotel The Celestine Kyoto Gion. The location is fantastic! In the heart of Gion and close walking distance to the main temples/ shines / gardens / cute shopping streets and bars. Four Seasons and Six Senses are both in another part and much more commercial and busy - doesn’t feel as authentic as this hotel’s location.
