Experience of the stay
Located right next to Yasaka Shrine, this place has the best sightseeing location.
When I visited with a stroller, the staff helped carry the stroller since the entrance had a few steps down.
The rooms require you to take off your shoes when entering, making it safe for families with babies.
The room comes with a kitchen equipped with all necessary cooking utensils. The room is quite spacious with a large table, which made it very easy for the family to have meals together.
The bath is also relatively large, and I didn't feel cramped even with children.
For breakfast, I added freshly baked bread from the room's bakery. Being able to eat freshly baked bread in the room, while getting the kids and myself ready, was the best!
The fridge is quite big, so it might be good to prepare breakfast as well.
There is a free activity tour for strolling through Gion in the morning, and although I wondered how it would be with two kids, I signed up since I was told I could leave if they got fussy, and it turned out to be a private tour!
Gion is usually crowded with tourists during the day, but it was really quiet in the early morning, which was amazing.
In the end, I also enjoyed some incense tea, making for a very satisfying stay.
Experiences during the trip
Close to Kamo River and Pontocho, perfect for sightseeing.
I walked to Takashimaya and did some shopping at the basement food court.
It was convenient to have a kitchen in the room to cut and eat the pickles I purchased.
The atmosphere of Gion, which I visited during the morning activity, is completely different and tranquil.
The famous Yasui Konpiragu is usually crowded during the day, but there was no line, so I was able to pass through the stone hole immediately.
Enjoy a stroll through Asano.
