7 Inns in Gion, Kyoto, Perfect for Traveling Alone 👘

Posted by Erika

There are many famous shrines and temples in the Gion and Higashiyama areas of Kyoto, so you can feel the history and enjoy it even if you travel alone.

Hanamikoji-dori Street is lined with traditional teahouses, and if the timing is right, you will have a chance to meet Maiko.

Walking along a stone-paved path or smacking at a gourmet restaurant in Kyoto … It’s a great place for girls to travel alone.♪

 

Why don’t you stay at a nice hotel after sightseeing? Enjoy a tasteful trip and heal your tired heart.

If you travel alone and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of the room and the delicious food, it will be a precious time to reflect on yourself!

I would like to introduce you to a hotel in Gion where you can stay comfortably even by yourself.



Kyoto Ryokan SAKANOUE

This is a ryokan located on an alley from Yasaka Shrine. Although it is close to the busy Gion, it is located in a place where you can feel a calm Kyoto atmosphere.

The inside of the building is full of the charm of Japanese architecture, and the wonderful furnishings such as flower vases and hanging scrolls in the room make you feel relaxed.

You can spend a relaxing time in the high-quality Japanese space where you can feel the good old days of Kyoto.(❁´◡`❁)

 

The cuisine that you can feel the four seasons of Kyoto is popular as it uses lots of seasonal Kyoto vegetables. It has an elegant taste and you can enjoy the taste of the ingredients themselves.

The hospitality of the staff is meticulous and you can spend a heart-warming time.♥
