Gion Yoshiima
605-0088 Kyoto, Kyoto, Higashiyama-ku Nishino-cho 229, Japan – Excellent location – show map
Staying at Gion Yoshiima was a highlight of our trip. It is an absolutely gorgeous place, full of history and with exceptional staff. The garden inside is beautiful. I traveled with my mother who is in her 80s and they very helpful and kind in making sure she was comfortable. The breakfast was delicious, one of the best we had in Japan and we felt as if we were having a special experience every moment we were there. We paid a small amount for a tea ceremony while there and it also was wonderful. If you have the opportunity please take it, you won't be disappointed.
