Nestled in the scenic Higashiyama area, right next to the serene grounds of Chion-in Temple, Chion-in Wajun Kaikan offers a charming blend of Japanese and Western-style accommodations. Here, you can immerse yourself in authentic experiences like transcribing Sutras and participating in traditional Buddhist morning services. Plus, there’s free WiFi available in the public areas, making it easy to stay connected during your stay.

Each air-conditioned room is thoughtfully equipped with a flat-screen TV, a safety deposit box, and a fridge. Guests can choose between cozy tatami-mat rooms adorned with traditional Japanese futon bedding or contemporary rooms featuring Western beds. Bathrooms come with hairdryers, and you’ll be delighted to find Japanese Yukata robes waiting for you.

For relaxation, indulge in the spacious public baths after a day of exploration, and don’t forget to check out the gift shop for unique local souvenirs. You can also explore the gallery showcasing historical Buddhist materials and stunning artworks from Chion-in Temple.

Dining is a highlight at Wajun Kaikan. Enjoy traditional multi-course meals that celebrate Kyoto’s culinary heritage—complete with exquisite Buddhist vegetarian dishes for dinner. Mornings bring a delightful Japanese set menu served at the lovely Kasuian restaurant.

Getting here is easy! Just hop on the public bus from JR Kyoto Train Station to Chioin-mae Bus Stop, which is just a short 5-minute walk from the property. You’ll also find Yasaka Shrine a quick stroll away, and Kiyomizu Temple is only a 20-minute walk. For those traveling by train, Gion Shijo Station is a mere 10-minute walk, while JR Kyoto Station is about a 15-minute drive away.
