This hotel is zero distance from Kyoto

Kyoto is always bustling with people, with tourists from all over the world flocking here. The Hoshino OMO5 Kyoto Gion, where I stayed this time, is in an excellent location, right next to the popular Yasaka Shrine and just a step away from Hanami Lane. The entrance is very small and easy to miss. The street outside is bustling with noise, but once you lift the curtain, it's a different world inside. 🏨Following the mysterious lanterns into the lobby, the map introduces the attractions and recommended shops around Gion, which you can explore with a guide. The cabinet is filled with local handicrafts, and you can even experience making matcha by hand with a stone mill. 🛏️My room has a distinct Japanese style, with washi paper windows and paper lanterns enhancing the atmosphere. The room is not small, and the space is cleverly divided by the arrangement of furniture, creating a winding layout. There's a tatami-style bedroom, a comfortable corner sofa rest area, a separate wet and dry bathroom area, and even a small kitchen where you can cook for yourself. 🍣Due to the prime location, the hotel does not have its own restaurant, but it cooperates with several selected restaurants nearby, and various delicacies can be delivered to the room for enjoyment. The breakfast on the first day was a vegetarian cuisine bento made with seasonal ingredients, so beautifully presented that it was almost a pity to eat it, light and fresh and delicious. The dinner enjoyed in the room was Nagoya Cochin chicken hot pot, with delicious soup and tender chicken, accompanied by various special side dishes, very satisfying. The most interesting thing is that you can also bake bread in the room with a bread machine. It's simple to operate according to the ingredient list, and in a few hours, a fragrant and fluffy big loaf of bread is ready. Thoughtfully, a soundproof cover is also provided for the bread machine, so it does not affect rest at all. Nearby are Kyoto's most famous attractions, restaurants, and entertainment, and you can enjoy the essence of Kyoto life just by walking.
