Minn Gion is located about 12~15 min walk away from Sanyo Keihan station where there are Keihan line and Tozai line. There is a family store located downstairs. Nearby, approximately 5~10 min walk, you get to various restaurants and embrace in the amazing culture around. The room we had, was for 4. All of us slept well though it was sleeping on the mattresses. There was fridge, toaster, microwave for your use too. Also, a bath tub but we did not use much as too exhausted but the time we came back. There are two washing machines and dryers at level 2. Shared. And you need to ensure you have always 100 yen as there was no money changer. Not even in the family mart. We used hands free luggage delivery service coming into and out of Minn Gion. Coming into Minn Gion, we need to collect our luggages from Yamato Transport office (approximately 20 min walk, took taxi back to Minn Gion). Sending out our luggages was a breeze (almost) as the family mart provided the service (you need to fill up the form on the next collection area, and thank goodness the family mart has screen captures on how you can do so). Overall, while Minn Gion is self service check in property, the communication via LINE can be further improved on.

This is a great option for families , very spacious and good amenities. It has a good sized kitchen, we had a laundry too which was a bonus and a wet room. Overall it was a great spacious place in a convenient location, and theres a family mart next door. Our only issue was that the rooms had mosquitos so some family members woke up with lots of itchy bites. In addition the main room had a terrible old sock like smell. They do need to fix that. We had the humidifier on which helped a bit. If you arent too bothered by smells or a few bites, its def a great option for a stay in Kyoto.

Only a couple of blocks from the busy streets of Kyoto but a world apart, as it was uncrowded and felt safe. We were on the second floor facing the street corner, so did hear cars and people's voices. There's a FamilyMart store on the ground floor which was convenient, but that also meant that people congregated below our window to smoke. Overall a nice property.

Aside from a strange check-in experience (check-in is done entirely over the internet or with the help of an off-site concierge contacted through a tablet in the lobby), Minn was an enjoyable hotel. The rooms are spacious and clean and we made use of the span in the basement, reservable for a reasonable fee.

Great property, and a large room, for Japan. The Minn location was great for those with Gion/Kyoto on their list - close but not too close, for the foot traffic and noise. Great restaurants and walking nearby. The subway was a 5 minute walk away, which you'll learn in important, and a Family Mart attached to the property.

Great location, nice clean and large room, and has all amenities needed in the room. Literally right next to a family mart which is great and walking distance from the markets and temples. Only minor downside was it would be tough to access staff at some points but we never needed that and when they were around, they were super friendly and helpful. They even let us check out a little later because our washer drier was taking a little while. Would definitely stay here again.
