Our family of four stayed here. This accommodation really showcased Japan's meticulous attention to detail. The location is excellent, close to the subway station, a market, and tourist spots in the east. It's definitely a place we'd love to stay at again on our next visit.

I initially thought it was far from the city center, but it turns out to be right in the bustling area, just across a bridge. It's very clean and convenient. There's a coin-operated washer and dryer on the first floor. Although they don't clean daily or replace amenities, you can request towel changes and basic cleaning. There are also convenience stores and some restaurants nearby, and the Kamo River is right next to it, which is fantastic! ❤️

About 200-300 meters from Sanjo Station, it's very convenient to take the bus to Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Yasaka Shrine. The room is clean and has a bathtub. There's drinking water and a washing machine on the first floor.

I arrived at the hotel around 7 PM after landing at Kansai Airport. I had to call the front desk to reach them, but the service was warm and attentive. In fact, their excellent service has already convinced me to book my flights for the cherry blossom season in Tokyo this April! Japan really knows how to deliver on emotional value. As a big Conan fan, strolling through the streets of Kyoto was an incredibly happy experience.

Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you so much for choosing to stay at Rinn Sanjo Ohashi East and for sharing such a warm review. We were delighted to learn that you were able to contact us easily by phone after arriving at 7 pm and were satisfied with the front desk service. It was especially honored to hear that our service led you to book your flight to Tokyo for the April cherry blossom season. As a fan of Detective Conan, strolling through the streets of Kyoto truly felt like stepping into a movie scene, full of charm. We hope the scenery of Kyoto left you with wonderful memories, just like in the manga. Japan is indeed a country that highly values "emotional value," and we will continue to strive to provide the same warm experience for your next trip to Japan. We look forward to the cherry blossoms in April bringing you even more surprises! We look forward to serving you again. Rinn Sanjo Ohashi East

This hotel is a few hundred meters from Sanjo Station, with a bus stop nearby. It's tucked away in a quiet alley. They also have self-service laundry machines, dryers, and an ice maker. For a Japanese hotel, it's quite spacious. In the mornings, you can take a walk to Kamogawa River, and in the evenings, it's convenient to grab something from a convenience store.

The hotel is small, and the rooms aren't spacious either. If you have three suitcases, you'll find there's no room to put them all. It would be great if they had four beds. The staff's service attitude is excellent, and they speak English, so communication wasn't an issue. The only downside is the lack of parking; finding a spot can be a bit difficult. If there's no parking nearby, you'll have to park your car a bit further away.

Response from Property: I am thankful for the extraction time, so I went to a liquor store and selected a photo review. I am satisfied with the geographical location of Gaoxing Hotel. Thank you very much for the praise of the staff before me, and the theory that I am here is a great encouragement, and I am very grateful to you for making even more effort to provide the service. However, I regret that I am not satisfied with the space available in the cellar of the liquor store. The shape of the room is different from the base, the space is different, and the place is different. The parking lot near the liquor store, however, is not normally located in the center of Kyoto city, and there is no parking space available for confirmation before proposal. We sincerely hope to continue receiving your support and attention, and look forward to welcoming you again when you visit Kyoto. Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at our hotel. We are very pleased to hear that you were pleased with our hotel's location. Your kind words of praise for our front desk staff are also a great encouragement to all of our staff. However, we regret that the room size did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your understanding that the layout of the space varies depending on the room type. While there are several parking lots around the hotel, please note that central Kyoto is often crowded, so we recommend checking availability in advance. We appreciate your continued patronage and hope you will visit us again when you visit Kyoto.

Rinn Sanjo-Tatori, a newly opened hotel in 2025, had a promotion, so we booked two nights to experience it.
It's just a couple hundred meters past Sanjo-Tatori, and the surrounding area is quite quiet, a contrast to the bustling Sijo-Tatori. The hotel entrance is quite small, so be careful when carrying luggage up a few steps. The front desk is open from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, but there isn't always someone there; you can call them if needed. They emphasize low-carbon living and environmental protection; room cleaning is only done if you stay for four consecutive nights. Since we only stayed two nights, they didn't clean our room.
Check-out time is 10:00 AM; there's an extra charge for late check-out.
You can check room types on the hotel's website. We got a Hollywood Twin Room, about 25 square meters. The room was quite large, with a small living room-like area; the sofa could easily accommodate another person sleeping. It felt like a converted guesthouse, with a kitchen equipped with a sink, induction cooker, electric kettle, pots and pans, and microwave—perfect for preparing simple meals.
There's a really authentic and delicious yakitori (grilled chicken) restaurant next to the hotel.

Response from Property: Thank you so much for taking the time to share your detailed and positive stay experience! We are delighted to know that you chose Rinn Triple Bridge, a newly opened hotel in 2025, and booked a 2-night stay during the promotion. We are pleased that you were satisfied with our excellent and tranquil location, right next to Rinn Triple Bridge, offering a peaceful retreat in contrast to the bustling Rinn Fourth Bridge. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the small entrance, the steps leading up to your luggage, or the limited front desk hours (online from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, not 24/7). Your feedback is invaluable, and we will strive to improve our service processes. Thank you for your understanding and support of our eco-friendly room cleaning policy (cleaning only after 4 consecutive nights of stay). Most importantly, we are very pleased that you enjoyed the spaciousness and comfort of our Hollywood Twin Room (approximately 25 square meters)! We are also pleased that you made full use of the in-room kitchen facilities (sink, induction cooker, electric kettle, pots and pans, microwave) to make you feel at home in this "guesthouse-turned-hotel" setting. We look forward to your next visit to the Rinn Three Bridges in the near future!

It's a bit like a hotel converted from a residential building, and it feels like home. The front desk staff is sometimes in the room, and you need to use the front desk phone to call them. The room is very spacious. It is the largest hotel I have stayed in for so many days in Japan. The facilities are also very complete, even with an induction cooker and pot, and a coffee machine. There is a sofa and a long table, and the suitcase can be opened easily, and the space is full. You can walk to Gion and Yasaka Shrine, and it is also relatively close to Kamogawa. There are many buses to Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka, and Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and they can be reached within 30 minutes. The front desk lady is very considerate and can store your luggage.

Facilities: The room comes with pots and pans, allowing for simple cooking of semi-finished ingredients, solving the breakfast problem.
Environment: Transportation is convenient nearby, with convenience stores and pharmacies nearby. Our room had a balcony, suitable for drying clothes, and overall we were very satisfied. There are also several small temples nearby, with few tourists and beautiful scenery.
Cleanliness: Clean and tidy, suitable for two adults and one child.

Because we couldn't get the same room type, we switched to a king-size room the next day. Unexpectedly, the king-size room also had two beds joined together, and I could feel a noticeable seam when sleeping. 😬
Other than that, everything else was the same as the twin room, with clean beds and bathrooms. There was self-service drinking water and a washing machine on the first floor. However, it seems Japanese hotels don't generally provide disposable slippers, so I recommend bringing your own.
