  • Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo
  • I'm interested in Shimogamo Shrine, which is famous as sacred places for matchmaking and beauty.

I am considering visiting Shimogamo Shrine, which is famous as sacred places for matchmaking and beauty. This will be my first time in Kyoto, so please let me know of any recommended hotels or Ryokan (Japanese inn) to use as a base for visiting shrines, including Shimogamo Shrine. I don't have a car, so I plan to tour by bus, taxi, or on foot.

  • Conveniently located just 3 minutes walk from the subway station

  • It is a short walk from Karasuma Oike Station on the Karasuma subway line, and there is also a city bus stop nearby, so it is easy to access Shimogamo Shrine and other shrines. If it is your first time in Kyoto and you are unfamiliar with the area, we recommend a place where you can easily get around using public transportation. You can use your time effectively and visit many shrines.

  • Also recommended as a base for visiting shrines

  • Located almost in the center of the city, it is convenient to access other shrines and tourist spots besides Shimogamo Shrine. It may be a good idea to ask the hotel concierge for advice on sightseeing plans and transportation including Shimogamo Shrine. Even if it is your first time in Kyoto, you can enjoy visiting shrines efficiently and with peace of mind.

  • A convenient hotel located in a quiet area west of the Kyoto Imperial Palace

  • How about staying at the Kyoto Brighton Hotel, which has good access to Shimogamo Shrine and is a safe choice for first-time Kyoto tourists? Located on the west side of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, Shimogamo Shrine can be accessed relatively easily by bus or taxi. The rooms, with their traditional Kyoto atmosphere, are also popular among women.

Hotel Gran Ms Kyoto

410-3 Shimomaruya-cho, Sanjo-agaru, Kawaramachi dori, Nakagyo-ku

Lowest price

  • One of the highlights is discovering the wonderful restaurants scattered around the area.

  • The hotel is conveniently located just a one-minute walk from Kyoto City Hall Station and a bus ride away from Shimogamo Shrine. The reason there is no restaurant on-site is that the hotel wants its guests to visit the wonderful restaurants scattered around the surrounding Kawaramachi area. It would be nice to stroll around and enjoy Kyoto's unique "Obanzai" (traditional Kyoto cuisine) and local sake.

  • The sophisticated interior and comfortable rooms are appealing

  • Located right next to Kyoto City Hall Station, the hotel offers excellent access to Shimogamo Shrine and other shrines in the city. The hotel is designed with a sophisticated interior design and comfortable rooms as its concept, so you can expect to receive attentive service. The hotel is close to the Kawaramachi area, Kyoto's central downtown area, so you will have no trouble finding places to eat and shop.

  • Convenient location for touring popular areas

  • How about this hotel with its lovely rooms that combine Japanese and modern styles? Located on the banks of the Kamo River, right next to the Sanjo Ohashi Bridge, you can feel the atmosphere of the Higashiyama area up close. It is convenient for visiting Shimogamo Shrine, and is within walking distance of Yasaka Shrine in Gion and other popular spots.
