Shunkoin Temple Tours

I really enjoyed my stay at The Gate Hotel. The room was incredibly spacious, which was such a nice surprise—there was plenty of room for everything and it felt very comfortable. I also loved all the little amenities they provided, from toothbrushes to all the other thoughtful extras. They really had everything you could need. The location was excellent, very central and convenient for getting around. The staff was also wonderful—everyone was so kind, friendly, and helpful. Overall, I loved everything about my stay and would definitely stay here again. One of my favorite hotels during our trip to Japan!

The location is ok but a tad too far to walk with kids, we end up taking taxis everywhere. The room is new and big but quite dusty in places, like our bed head have a visible layer of dust. We had a window in our room that has no curtains and work lights behind, the light has keep us awake at night. We have asked them, they asked us to buy a sleeping mask instead:( However, our biggest problem with this property is that it advertises as a hotel but it has no reception or services. We can’t forward our luggage to them which is very inconvenient. We stayed for 5 days, when asked to change towel, we’ve been told to wash them by ourselves:(
