I stayed here for two nights over my honeymoon two years ago and was over the moon about this location. Therefore, when we came back to fully experience Kyoto we thought coming back here was a no-brainer. We were wrong. Therr were several spiders in our room, room cleaning was very minimal (they only replaced the body towels and disposables as well as emptying the trashcans), the room was extremely dusty and dirty (coffee stains) on the walls and ceilings, they also never refilled our water. Unsure if and how things have changed, but for the price I don’t think I would recommend for a long stay. For a short stay, the space is nice and very spacious with a large tub which was nice after all the walking.

Nice stay

This small hotel located on a quiet street in Gion. It is very convenient to walk to different tourist spots in central Kyoto and just a min walk to subway and regional train stations. The room is small but clean and neat. Bathroom is well equipped and nice for whole day of walking. Staff are helpful and friendly. I would love to stay here again.

This property was lovely. The staff were quite friendly, spoke English very well and we’re very helpful. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were clean and the neighborhood is great. I forgot about VIP status so I don’t believe we received anything special. The hotel did have tea and water available, but I believe that was for everybody.

I really enjoyed my stay at Gion Misen Furumonzen. My room was very stylish and comfortable, and I loved the bathroom. The bathtub was amazing! The staff were also wonderful: very polite and helpful any time I had a question. I've seen other reviews complaining that the staff isn't friendly, but essentially these complaints seem focused on the fact that the staff are mostly European rather than Japanese. This should be seen as a pro, rather than a con. They are all multi-lingual, meaning they can help a greater range of travellers in their own languages. For a city like Kyoto that draws visitors from every corner of the globe, having multi-lingual staff at a hotel is an absolute bonus. The location of the hotel is great too. Right on the edge of Gion, so the area is walkable (I walked as far south as Kiyomizu-dera) but the street itself is quiet, which I appreciated. And it's very close to Sanjo Station, which makes travel quite easy (no need to take any packed buses). The one thing, as other reviewers have mentioned, is the pillow situation. The pillows in the room were like pancakes. I had two beds in my room, so I was able to use the additional pillows, but for a relatively expensive boutique hotel, you'd expect better pillows, or a pillow bar in the lobby. If business-class hotels can have a pillow bar, so can boutique hotels. This hotel's rating would instantly improve if they added a pillow bar. Beyond that, I had a great stay and was sad to leave, haha.
