Well equipped, if somewhat spartan. Comfortable beds. Great location - close to many museums, temples, shrines & lots of ships just on the other side of the river. Very close to Sanjo Station.

Nice to have laundry in the room, very convenient. Our 2 rooms were nice and big. We take our shoes off, so a little weird to have the bathroom and entry hall in between the two rooms. Love the big room.

Minn Gion Sanjo was perfect for traveling with my group of friends. We booked the room with the tatami mats of 3 futons and 2 beds. The room was big enough to host all of us. We didnt bring our big luggages and left them at Tokyo but the room was still large enough to accomodate our needs (even if you account your own large luggage) there is a Konbini just a casual walk down the road and a nice place to wind down just further down. Which was the river side. Highly reccomend exploring the nearby areas in your free time as we found some hidden gems. Transportation wise, it does take a while to access public transit (about a 8-10 minute walk) but still super convient. We were able to access this hotel 2 transits away from the Shinkasen from Tokyo and 1 train ride away to Osaka after our stay. The room was well stocked with ammenities and the spa/hot bath room is highly reccomended but you would need to book in advance. There was an elevator that allowed easy access to the room. Everything about the stay was comfortable and we found the room very pleasant and quite fancy. Thank you Minn Gion!
