Excellent hotel which is located near to the Kyoto station and there is a subway nearby. They offer free shuttle between Kyoto station. I booked small double room but later changed it to standard twin room as the living space was so small. Food, ambiance and hospitality were so good.

The rooms are so big for Japan. The bed is super comfortable and the shower is amazing. I stayed in a number of rooms as we kept extending our stay, my favourite room was the one facing the street as it was quietest. The ones facing the river seem to have some low level noise from the Subway but it's not very bad my any means. I slept perfectly in all of the rooms.

Firstly, the staff were incredible and really easy to deal with. The room was lovely and had more than enough space for the two of us. Location was great, a 5min walk to the busy shopping streets one way and 5min to the subway the other. All while feeling unique and isolated from the crowds. Loved our stay here.

Ginkaku-ji Temple

Are you into ‘wabi-sabi’? This traditional Japanese way of thinking, where less is always more, finds its physical form at this Ginkaku-ji. Its immaculate gardens are a tranquil collection of trickling streams, moss-tufted groves and simple pagodas. Check out the Ginshadan Garden, famous for its raked-gravel depictions of Mount Fuji and the sea.

Same as photos.

Same as photos. If you have seen it in a photo then you have seen it. Nothing else there that isn’t better or bigger or less crowds than here. Plus it’s so far out of the city and away from public transport it is inconvenient to travel to and the bus is always crowded. Prepare to walk a lot for little more than a photo

This temple might not be the Golden Temple, but it has is own beauty. The gardens are beautiful and you should take a solid hour, hour and a half to enjoy them properly. It's a quiet place where you can find hidden statues, spots and native animals. Depending on the season, you'll get a different view of the garden and that itself is pure magic. There are some local shops outside the temple that deserve a visit.
