Rooms with Kyoto touches

Rinn Shirakawa South offers double and twin rooms with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and electric kettles. Rooms feature carpet motifs inspired by the Keage Incline, a historic transport route. Some rooms overlook an inner garden with greenery visible from the bathing area. For groups of more than 3 adults, futons are provided. Children under 6 can stay free without extra bedding.

Dining options nearby

The hotel is surrounded by small restaurants and teahouses in Gion, Kyoto's most famous geisha district. Nearby dining includes traditional Kyoto cuisine and establishments where geisha and maiko entertain.

Exploring Higashiyama's heritage

Rinn Shirakawa South is steps from Shirakawa's willow-lined streets and a short walk from Yasaka Shrine (0.5 km) and Kennin-ji Temple (1 km). The area is known for its Edo-period culture, with geisha theaters and seasonal walking routes to Kodai-ji Temple.

Location in historic Gion

The hotel is in Gion, 5 minutes from Ichihime Shrine. Fushimi Inari Shrine is 4.5 km away, and Nishiki Market is 2 km. The Keihan Electric Railway's Fushimi Inari Station provides direct access to Kyoto's main attractions.

Traditional machiya design

The building follows a traditional 'eel bed' townhouse layout, with narrow frontage and deep interiors. Artwork featuring Shirakawa willows and Kyo-yuzen fabric, a Kyoto craft, decorates the space. The second floor showcases historic clay wall techniques like 'Takekomai' and 'Rough Clay Wall.'
