Art Mon Zen Kyoto

Fantastic! The staff was superb. They were so helpful, warm and welcoming. The room was pristine. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you for a lovely stay.

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.

This is listed as a 3 star hotel. It is not. It is the most luxurious hotel we’ve stayed at, including 5 star properties. The room was amazing. The location was perfect. Although everyone in Japan seems extraordinarily nice, the staff here beat even that standard. There was not one second of our time at this property that wasn’t perfect. 10/10.

The property itself felt a little less hip and young than places we typically stay, but it was such a comfortable stay. The bed & soaking tub was a dream, the location and staff top notch. We really enjoyed our stay.

The Executive room was grand, complimented by high ceilings and just an overall large space compared to many other hotels/inns one would expect in Japan. The room was clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable (much larger than your typically king size) after your long days in Kyoto. The hotel is located in Gion and is a quiet and beautiful neighborhood in Kyoto, nestled in between the main touristy area and Marayuma park. There is a Family mart just outside the hotel and a coin laundry - extreme convenience. Hotel staff were incredibly nice and helped with luggage delivery service to our next hotel. Would definitely stay here again in the future!

Amazing. I will be back. Literally a 5 star experience walking distance to the most beautiful area in Kyoto. Very easy to access anything you want; food, shopping, shrines, metro and trains. The staff couldn’t be more kind always arranging taxis or giving suggestions of where to go and eat etc.. I was sad to leave this hotel. That doesn’t happen very often in traveling. I will be back here one day soon. ❤️

This is an exceptional small hotel. It's on a quiet street, but close to great restaurants, shops and transportation. Every staff member was professional, polite, helpful and friendly. We would most certainly recommend this property to friends visiting Kyoto.

The Art Mon Zen is one of the most delightful hotels I have ever stayed in. The rooms were beautiful, immaculately clean and incomparable comfortable. Each one features unique and fascinating antiques (ours had a cuneiform tablet, Roman bowl and Ming vase). The breakfasts were skillfully prepared and artfully presented; we ended up eating there every day we could. The afternoon tea was whimsical, gorgeous and utterly delicious - don't miss it if you stay here! The location is basically perfect: in Gion, walking distance to the river, the Path of Philosophy, Kiyomizu, Yasaka, Gion's shopping, etc. Sanjo station is three minutes away, from whence you can easily connect to anywhere in the Kyoto train system. And despite all that, the staff is what truly made our trip magical. They were polite, attentive and always friendly. They helped us organize a variety of outings and dinners across Kyoto, all of which were perfect. They even rescued us from a mountain hike, when we lost phone service and couldn't call our taxi. They went well beyond 'above and beyond' in every way. I have stayed in luxury hotels across the world, and I can say without caveat that the Art Mon Zen is one of the finest you will ever have the privilege of enjoying.

Our stay was wonderful. The room was beautiful and well appointed. The staff was extraordinary. Helpful, warm, and made our stay Incredible. We highly recommend this property.

This hotel is gorgeous. The staff treated us with the utmost kindness. It felt as if we were their only customers. The food was amazing. The hotel room itself was exquisitely luxurious. One of my most favorite places to stay of all the hotel visits I've had.

駅からアクセスしやすく、荷物などを持って行きやすかったです。 施設の中も設備が充実しており、部屋の中でも快適に過ごせました。 従業員の方もチェックインからチェックアウトまでとても丁寧にしていただいて嬉しかったです。 ぜひまた利用したいと思います。

The room was immaculate and it was easy to walk to great restaurants and neighborhoods. The staff were very helpful.

Equipe accueillante et attentive. Accueil et service prévenants. Chambre spacieuse et très confortable.

This is the best hotel that we have stayed at in Japan. The room was incredible and the staff were fantastic. The location was great. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a large luxurious room

Art Mon Zen is an exceptional boutique hotel located in the heart of Gion. Location is perfect to explore Kyoto, with some of the best attractions and restaurants in the city mere steps away. The Executive room we stayed in was very spacious, tastefully furnished and decorated, quiet at night and beautifully bright during the day thanks to the floor to ceiling windows. The bed was very large and extremely comfortable and the air conditioning whisper silent and effective. The bathroom included a supersized high pressure rain shower and a Jacuzzi. Not sure why this is classed as a 3 star hotel, when the comfort and beauty of the room and the exceptionally high level of service could easily grant it a 5 star rating. We couldn't have been happier with the choice of our Kyoto hotel!

Chambre spacieuse et très propre. Dommage que la baie vitrée donne sur le mur de l’habitation d’en face. Sinon logement de qualité et bien situé proche de Gion avec métro et ligne de bus à proximite

Hotel was great, rooms were giant and so was the bed! Very soft and comfy. Location if you’re looking to be a block from Gion without the foot traffic chaos is perfect. There is a Lawson’s (convenience store) next door which is great (and you can smoke there if you’re a smoker in search of a rare spot). I would suggest to the hotel to put copies of the restaurant menus in the rooms and do not disturb signs. But that’s just a small thing. Would definitely stay there again.

非常新非常舒適的房間，很大很寬敞，沖涼和浴缸設施非常滿意，地理位置太方便了，離祇園花見小路近在咫尺。

The hotel is beautiful - our room was massive by Japanese standards, and luxurious. Great location for Gion but very quiet. The staff were wonderful - warm and helpful. Amazing breakfasts in beautiful surroundings. We would definitely stay there again.

L’hôtel est très bien situé dans un quartier diversifié Les chambres sont grandes La literie est superbe et le décor raffiné Le petit déjeuner pourrait être amélioré
