Gojo Guesthouse is a simple inexpensive ryokan-style guesthouse just down the hill from the Southern Higashiyama sightseeing district.
Located on Gojo-dori Street, Gojo Guesthouse is a casual traveler’s guesthouse located about 15 minutes’ walk down the hill from the famous Kiyomizu-dera Temple. It’s got both dorm rooms and single/twin rooms, all furnished with tatami mat floors onto which you spread out your futon to sleep. The place welcomes foreign travelers and has their needs in mind, with free internet, bicycle rental and English-speaking staff. As usual with places like this, however, you have to be prepared for a bit of noise from other rooms and the hallway.
