It's situated just outside the central city limits, at the foot of Mt. Yoshida, far enough from the manic energy of the inner-city but offers sweeping views of Kyoto from its second-floor bedrooms. While you're staying at Yoshida Sanso, don’t forget to check out Gion and Kodai-ji Temple, and other Kyoto's tourist attractions.
