It is located across the bridge from the popular restaurant district. We found it extremely easy to get to. The staff greeted us warmly and were extremely helpful. The breakfast was incredible and was the cherry on top for our experience. The only advice I have to share is that there are many mosquitos in the garden (can’t be helped) and to be ready for breakfast 30 minutes before your time.

Staff were all 10/10 amazing. What a cool experience and very relaxing!

Amazing experience, a very good night sleep in Japanese traditional lodging.

Best place to do and experience a ryokan. Service was so good and attentive when it came to our tea and our traditional Japanese breakfast she walked us on how to eat everything. It was amazing

A lovely cultural experience, would highly recommend!

This was our first stay in a ryokan, sleeping on traditional tatami mats and futons. Staff brought breakfast to our rooms in the morning, it was delicious and a nice cultural experience. The room was large and spacious, along with the bathroom. A great stay in kyoto and I definitely recommend!

Wonderful and traditional experience.

Fantastic Ryokan if you want an authentic Japanese hotel experience. It takes a little getting used to for the slipper swap but it just adds to the authenticity. Also be ready for breakfast 30 min before your requested time.

Beautiful and amazing property

What an amazing ryokan, the best value for money I had on my entire trip. The staff are so polite and they offer an authentic Japanese experience. It was the highlight of our trip, will definitely stay again!

Amazing service, the staff were all super friendly and made us feel at home. The property was beautiful and in a great location!

This is ryokans offers, traditional Japanese clothing, (kimono and yukata) breakfast, Zen garden, tatami mat flooring, sliding wooden doors, bidet, mats for floor sleeping and excellent temperature control. A big plus was the Wifi and location. Staff are awesome. I would warn this ryokan has an 11pm curfew which curtailed our late evening plans to see Fushimi Inari (which is 24/7). The curfew is the biggest setback for travelers who wish to run a late night.

We had a fantastic stay at gion yoshi ima for 6 nights. The ryokan was absolutely incredible and the staff were absolutely amazing. Location was great. Nothing was a hassle, we were treated so kindly would recommend this stay without question!

Fabulous Ryokan. Truly gives the Japanese culture experience. Great location in Gion. Highly recommend to stay here when visiting Kyoto

A family run old fashioned ryokan Comfortable great location and helpful staff

It was great for the whole Japanese experience and in a great location close to all the other full culture shops and restaurants etc. if you don't like small space and sleeping and sitting on the floor this is not for you.

Very traditional place to stay. Enjoyable. Nicer than a modern hotel.

THe location near to the Gion region and the subway and train stations (not JR Kyoto) make if a great base for touring Kyoto - best done on foot, so as to better see all the beautiful temples and intresting shops - that are happy to welcome visitors, even if the language is only Japanese.

A great welcome, always with a smile. A nice immersion into traditional Japanese cultural. Helpful and flexible staff. A place not to miss when in Kyoto.

We loved our stay at Yoshiima. It provided a wonderful traditional Japanese style accommodation experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the rooms, bathrooms and private garden were delightful. The Ryokan was also situated in a fabulous location of Kyoto. It enhanced our Kyoto experience.
