#7 of 9 hotels in Higashiyama & Kiyomizu by Axel's take. Higashiyama & Kiyomizu is #6 of 7 places to stay in Kyoto. The best hotels in Higashiyama & Kiyomizu, ranked · Where to stay in Kyoto

Axel's take: 8.7/10

Polished Gion comfort and excellent service, tempered by next-door construction. an upscale Japanese-style 4-star in historic Gion, scored for what it is.

The Celestine is an upscale Japanese-style 4-star opposite Kenninji Temple, and a strong pick for exploring Gion on foot. Recent Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise the spotless rooms, comfortable beds and helpful staff. The public bath and well-regarded breakfast add substance to the restrained design: this is a hotel with Japanese touches, not a traditional ryokan.

The biggest caveat is current next-door building construction. The hotel warns of possible noise and vibration from October 1, 2026 through March 31, 2028, with work scheduled from 8am to 6pm. On-site parking is also unavailable. Smaller-scale drawbacks include a guest lounge that several reviewers find cramped or crowded. We'd choose it for sightseeing days and comfortable evenings, but skip it if undisturbed daytime relaxation is central to your trip.

Best for: couples exploring historic Kyoto; travelers who enjoy Japanese public baths; sightseers prioritizing Gion
Watch out for: next-door construction through March 2028; no on-site parking; small, sometimes crowded guest lounge
Location: Opposite Kenninji Temple, with Gion's historic streets within easy walking distance.
Rooms: Well-equipped contemporary Japanese interiors; entry-level queen rooms are 25.7 square meters.
Cleanliness: Consistently strong guest feedback, supported by high cleanliness ratings on Booking.com and Expedia.
Service: Recent guests repeatedly praise friendly staff and helpful concierge assistance.
Amenities: Large public bath, Japanese restaurant, guest lounge and bar; breakfast earns frequent praise.
Fees and surprises: Accommodation tax is payable separately; minibars are charged, parking is off-site, and adjacent construction may cause daytime noise.
