Guest reviews for Gion Ryokan Karaku

Couples (1)
5 out of 5
Die Unterkunft befindet sich gleich beim Yasaka Schrein, jedoch an einem ruhigen Eckchen. Die Hokan-ji Pagode in Higashiyama hat man vom Ryokan aus in 5-10 Gehminuten erreicht. Das Personal ist extrem Freundlich. Es ist ein wenig teuer, doch wir wurden nicht enttäuscht und bekamen hier die volle Ryokan Experience, welche wir uns auch erhofft haben. Vielen Dank und gerne wieder.
