The rooms are very very big, but a bit run down. Scrape marks on doors, weird ventilation noises at night, you have to hand your key in when you leave the building, quite a few little issues. The rooms have full sized bathrooms with a bath, however after running one the bathroom was hot and muggy for hours after. The biggest deterrent though is that the hotel is a 10 minute plus walk to the nearest train/subway station. Staying here makes it a bit harder to get around. I would suggest finding a hotel next to a station. There probably some good ones.

以前から丁寧な対応には好感を持っていました。今回多言語で対応できるフロントが加わったのでチェックインがスムーズになりとてもよいと思いました。このままでいくと京都のホテルでは少なくとも英・中・韓の言語で対応できない(日本語しかできない)人は勤められなくなるのではないかと思いました。 八坂神社、祇園に近いのは何といっても便利。

來京都一定會再入住

前台服務人員親切有禮 ,有中文服務 ,入住及退房非常迅速, 是6次日本自由行以來遇過最棒的前台服務, 房間舒適寬敞 ,床很好睡, 枕頭不會太軟,打掃認真, 位在八坂神社旁 , 神社前有公車站牌, 附近吃的逛的店家都非常有京都風情, 步行5分鐘可到花見小路 ,步行10分鐘左右可到清水寺, 附近有超市及便利商店, 8月26日到9月1日住了六天,非常滿意, 希望9月4號燕子颱風沒有受到什麼傷害才好

Find another place!

Arrived early and had to check bags, no accommodation for early checkin or late check out. Rooms carpet had to have been 40 years old with a vivid smell of mold not only in the room but the entire hotel. The water also had a strange odor which prompted us to buy bottles even though the rest of japan and even Kyoto didn’t have the same issue. The bathroom was tiled floor, walls and ceiling and reminded us of a submarine or underground dirty basement. The bed was a brick, couldn’t sleep more than a few hours without waking up in pain, almost better off on the floor. Bed also lacked sheets, just one covering a nasty mattress with stains and a comforter. Even though the staff was very friendly and the location is great, it wasn’t worth the lack of sleep or feeling dirty almost all the time even after showers.

Excellente base pour profiter à fond de Kyoto.

C'était probablement le cinquième ou sixième séjour que je faisais au Sunline Kyoto Gion, qui est devenu mon hôtel attitré lorsque je passe par Kyoto. Pour la première fois, j'avais une petite critique, l'éclairage électrique très insuffisant dans la chambre (206), mais c'est la seule fois où j'ai rencontré ce problème. J'en ai parlé avec le personnel, qui va très probablement y remédier. La situation de l'hôtel, un peu à l'écart du centre mais à un quart d'heure à pied de Pontocho et du Nishiki Food Market et très bien desservi par les bus (dont deux lignes pour la gare centrale) et proche de la Keian Train Line, en fait une très bonne base pour visiter la ville et ses environs. Gion et ses petites rues sont à deux pas, et le Sentier des Philosophes facilement accessible par bus, voire à pied. Personnel extrêmement aimable et parlant le plus souvent un anglais décent, voire (dans un cas) le français. Pas de restaurant sauf pour le petit-déjeuner, mais il y en a des dizaines à proximité immédiate, dont certains excellents. Je recommande sans réserve.

Gute Lage und freundlicher Service

Das Hotel liegt optimal im Gion Bezirk and doch etwas abseits des Trubels. Bus- und U-Bahnstationen sind in der Naehe. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist die Thematik der Heizung und Kuehlung. Waehrend der Schlafraum meist sehr schnell sehr warm wurde war das uebrigens riesige Badezimmer meistens sehr kalt. Die Betten sind sehr bequem, die Kopfkissen weniger. Das Fruehstuecksbuffet ist fuer japanische Verhaeltnisse sehr gut, auch wenn hier z.B. das Ruehrei zumeist kalt war. Insgesamt aber ein sehr empfehlenswerter Aufenthalt
