From the moment we arrived to leaving, the staff were exceptional and extremely attentive. Probably the best hotel stay in Japan. Overall, the room was very comfortable and relaxing after a long day visiting all the sensational sights in Kyoto. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to stay near the main Gion district in Kyoto. ##### Peter Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley May 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property itself felt a little less hip and young than places we typically stay, but it was such a comfortable stay.

The room was clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable (much larger than your typically king size) after your long days in Kyoto. The hotel is located in Gion and is a quiet and beautiful neighborhood in Kyoto, nestled in between the main touristy area and Marayuma park. There is a Family mart just outside the hotel and a coin laundry - extreme convenience. Hotel staff were incredibly nice and helped with luggage delivery service to our next hotel. Would definitely stay here again in the future! ##### Yee pong Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### tracy Oct 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing. I will be back. Literally a 5 star experience walking distance to the most beautiful area in Kyoto. Very easy to access anything you want; food, shopping, shrines, metro and trains. The staff couldn’t be more kind always arranging taxis or giving suggestions of where to go and eat etc.. I was sad to leave this hotel. That doesn’t happen very often in traveling. I will be back here one day soon. ❤️ ##### tracy Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason Apr 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolutely Incomparable The Art Mon Zen is one of the most delightful hotels I have ever stayed in. The rooms were beautiful, immaculately clean and incomparable comfortable. Each one features unique and fascinating antiques (ours had a cuneiform tablet, Roman bowl and Ming vase). The breakfasts were skillfully prepared and artfully presented; we ended up eating there every day we could. The afternoon tea was whimsical, gorgeous and utterly delicious - don't miss it if you stay here! The location is basically perfect: in Gion, walking distance to the river, the Path of Philosophy, Kiyomizu, Yasaka, Gion's shopping, etc. Sanjo station is three minutes away, from whence you can easily connect to anywhere in the Kyoto train system. And despite all that, the staff is what truly made our trip magical. They were polite, attentive and always friendly. They helped us organize a variety of outings and dinners across Kyoto, all of which were perfect. They even rescued us from a mountain hike, when we lost phone service and couldn't call our taxi. They went well beyond 'above and beyond' in every way. I have stayed in luxury hotels across the world, and I can say without caveat that the Art Mon Zen is one of the finest you will ever have the privilege of enjoying. ##### Jason Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew Mar 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The room was immaculate and it was easy to walk to great restaurants and neighborhoods.

Received a free upgrade on our rooms upon check-in so that was always a nice welcome. No idea what grade we were upgraded to, but the rooms were huge for Japan standards. Room amenities were great too. Bose speakers, Nespresso machine, bigger than usual bathtub with bubbles, and even a steam humidifier (although the buttons were in Japanese characters and there weren't instructions on how to operate it). Hotel staff were really friendly and helpful. My parents' room had a faulty door and they managed to get it repaired while we were out sightseeing, thus avoiding the inconvenience of changing rooms. One evening, we asked the staff for help in making a restaurant reservation. Not only was that efficiently done, they also took the initiative to print out a map showing how to get to the restaurant from our hotel. Talk about great service! Location was good too. Just a stone's throw away from the heart of Gion, and being a few minutes walk from Sanjo and Shijo Dori stations meant that getting about was easy. Downtown Kyoto was just about 10-15mins walk away. And there's a Lawson right outside the hotel too. Breakfast was yummy too. Had just came back from Paris recently and was starting to miss the boulangeries there, so the breakfast of croissant and pain au chocolat sourced from Le Pain Quotidien really hit the spot. All in all, a great hotel that I would highly recommend, and I'm definitely going to stay there again shall I return to Kyoto. ##### Junxian Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### masaya Mar 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 駅からアクセスしやすく、荷物などを持って行きやすかったです。 施設の中も設備が充実しており、部屋の中でも快適に過ごせました。 従業員の方もチェックインからチェックアウトまでとても丁寧にしていただいて嬉しかったです。 ぜひまた利用したいと思います。 ##### masaya Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sylvie Feb 17, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Equipe accueillante et attentive.

We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a large luxurious room ##### Paul Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Art Mon Zen is an exceptional boutique hotel located in the heart of Gion. Location is perfect to explore Kyoto, with some of the best attractions and restaurants in the city mere steps away. The Executive room we stayed in was very spacious, tastefully furnished and decorated, quiet at night and beautifully bright during the day thanks to the floor to ceiling windows. The bed was very large and extremely comfortable and the air conditioning whisper silent and effective. The bathroom included a supersized high pressure rain shower and a Jacuzzi. Not sure why this is classed as a 3 star hotel, when the comfort and beauty of the room and the exceptionally high level of service could easily grant it a 5 star rating. We couldn't have been happier with the choice of our Kyoto hotel! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### geraldine Jun 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Proche de Gion Chambre spacieuse et très propre.

Very soft and comfy. Location if you’re looking to be a block from Gion without the foot traffic chaos is perfect. There is a Lawson’s (convenience store) next door which is great (and you can smoke there if you’re a smoker in search of a rare spot). I would suggest to the hotel to put copies of the restaurant menus in the rooms and do not disturb signs. But that’s just a small thing. Would definitely stay there again. ##### Carey Stayed 6 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 完美入住 非常新非常舒適的房間，很大很寬敞，沖涼和浴缸設施非常滿意，地理位置太方便了，離祇園花見小路近在咫尺。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 27, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is beautiful - our room was massive by Japanese standards, and luxurious.

Stay at AMZ if: you like high-end finishes, art and cleanliness. Rooms were spacious, comfortable and outstrip the Park Hyatts and Ritz Carltons in terms of quality of finishing. Also extremely clean (take it from someone who inspects under her bed, room corners, drain holes and shower grouting). The location is great, on a street full of top galleries including the hotel owner’s. Do not stay if: you want amenities like a gym and variety of restaurants, that’re available at larger properties. To be fair the hotel is officially rated 3\*. Also, service: only one lady in the entire team was impressive, going out of her way to look for an English-speaking doctor for me when I fell ill. For the most part everyone else ignored us; although they were pleasant enough once approached. This is ok by European standards. Just do not expect the kind of enthusiastic Japanese hospitality you are accustomed to in other institutions. ##### Steffi Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 16, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort とても丁寧な対応で、気持ち良く過ごすことが出来ました。 ロケーション的にもとても便利だと思います。 ありがとうございました。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Nov 27, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice boutique in Gion Incredibly spacious room.

The staff all spoke good English and were very helpful. They assisted in the usual tourist questions such as “what is the best way to get to the golden temple?” Depending on what direction you walked, in 10 minutes you could be at a major shrine, heart of the historic area, at the museum district, or at upscale shopping. Oh, the subway and major train station is a 2 minute walk. ##### Jan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Chatelet Inn Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Chateleinkyoto.h96281570.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sakaiza Shijo-Kawaramachi](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-TOKYU-STAY-KYOTO-SHIN-KYOGOKU-DORI.h27557574.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Okura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Hotel-Okura.h6621.Hotel-Information) > > [Dhawa Yura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Yura-Hotel-MGallery.h34865507.Hotel-Information) > > [Gina House Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Gina-House-Kyoto.h22480351.Hotel-Information) > > [KABIN Koji](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-KABIN-Koji.h27077097.Hotel-Information) > > [APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Kyotoeki-Horikawadori.h3895687.Hotel-Information) > > [No.8 Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-No8-Kyoto.h62969739.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Okura-Kyoto-Okazaki-Bettei.h71993618.Hotel-Information) > > [RESI STAY Mayu Grace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Mayu-Grace-Hotel-Kyoto.h38225038.Hotel-Information) > > [Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Onyado-Nono-Kyotonanajyo-Natural-Hot-Springs.h44762017.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Twin Hotel Kyoto Hachijoguchi](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Royal-Twin-Hotel-Kyoto.h41924656.Hotel-Information) > > [Sakura Terrace The Atelier](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Sakura-Terrace-The-Atelier.h16251783.Hotel-Information) > > [ Hotel Tetora Kyoto Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Tetora-Kyoto-Station.h38224035.Hotel-Information) > > [Randor Residential Hotel Kyoto Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Randor-Residential-Hotel-Kyoto-Suites.h42442448.Hotel-Information) > > [TUNE STAY Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-TUNE-STAY-Kyoto-Hostel.h39861619.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sanjo-Karasuma](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Tokyu-Stay-Kyoto-Ryougaemachi-Dori-Sanjo-Karasuma.h18573474.Hotel-Information) > > [TSUGU Kyoto Sanjo by THE SHARE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-SHARE-HOTELS-TSUGU-Kyoto-Sanjo-Hostel.h34432010.Hotel-Information) > > [Momijiya Honkan Takao Sansou](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Momiji-Ya-Honkan-Takaosansou.h15423458.Hotel-Information) > > [Kyonosato](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyonosato.h45704342.Hotel-Information) > > [Rakuro Kyoto](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-SHARE-HOTELS-RAKURO-Kyoto.h22674935.Hotel-Information) > > [LOISIR HOTEL KYOTO TOJI](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-LOISIR-HOTEL-KYOTO-TOJI.h95906369.Hotel-Information) > > [JR WEST GROUP VIA INN PRIME KYOTOEKI HACHIJOGUCHI](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Via-Inn-Kyoto-Station-Hachijoguchi.h33382855.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Grand Bach Kyoto Select](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Grand-Bach-Kyoto-Select.h8076320.Hotel-Information) > > [hotel MONday Kyoto Karasuma Nijo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-MONday-Kyoto-Karasuma-Dori.h39192199.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pocket Hotel Kyoto Shijokarasuma](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-POCKET-HOTEL-Kyoto-Shijokarasuma.h26586944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-HOTEL-MUSSE-Kyotoshijokawaramachi-Meitetsu.h52041999.Hotel-Information) > > [Stay SAKURA Kyoto Fuga](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Stay-SAKURA-Kyoto-Fuga.h37245435.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Daiwa-Royal-Hotel-Grande-Kyoto.h21918553.Hotel-Information)
