A Refined Retreat in the Heart of Historic Gion

Set along the atmospheric streets of Hanamikoji, where the timeless charm of Kyoto’s old town remains, Rinn Gion Hanatouro stands quietly in a serene alley, blending seamlessly into the historic surroundings of Gion.

Just a one-minute walk brings you to the vibrant center of Gion.
Strolling along the stone-paved streets, you may catch sight of maiko and geiko on their way to traditional teahouses, offering a glimpse into Kyoto’s elegant cultural heritage.

Within the hotel, guest rooms are designed in a refined modern Japanese style.
Some rooms feature private terraces overlooking nearby temples and the gentle ridges of the Higashiyama mountains.
As the seasons change, so too does the scenery, revealing a landscape of quiet beauty that offers a different impression with every visit.

Each guest room is equipped with a bathroom featuring a rain shower and a bathtub crafted from Koya-maki, a tree treasured in Japan for its natural elegance.
Softer than hinoki cypress, Koya-maki releases a refreshing fragrance reminiscent of gentle herbs.
Its finely textured wood, pale golden hue, and natural sheen create a soothing, refined bathing experience.

Whether enjoying an evening stroll through the lantern-lit streets of Gion or a quiet early morning walk, we invite you to experience a memorable and tranquil stay at Rinn Gion Hanatouro.
