Gion Elite Terrace Hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Modern and Spacious

My stay in the King Room with Balcony was fantastic! The room was modern, comfortable, and spacious, providing both indoor and outdoor seating areas, which made for a cozy retreat. The oxygen spa bath was an absolute highlight, truly working wonders for relaxation. I loved the thoughtful design that blended traditional aesthetics with modern conveniences.

Very nice Bath Experience

The bathroom in the Twin Room with Bath was a complete delight. It had both a bubbling bath and an impressive shower, making it perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. The design was beautifully done as well, with features that ensured comfort and cleanliness. I could easily see elements from this bathroom in my future home!

Extremely Comfortable Beds

One of my favorite aspects of my stay in the Family Room was the comfort of the beds. They were the most comfortable I've ever slept on while traveling! It was particularly great since my husband usually prefers firmer mattresses. The dimmer switches throughout the room allowed us to create a relaxing atmosphere, essential for dealing with jet lag.

Amazing Relaxation Facilities

I loved the sauna in the Deluxe Triple Room! It was a fantastic addition that enhanced our experience at the hotel. After a day of sightseeing, enjoying the sauna was the perfect way to relax and unwind. Additionally, the hotel had complimentary toiletries that made the experience even better. This facility was ideal for someone looking to recharge.
