Reviews from overseas about the Gion store

  • The staff were very friendly and we were able to communicate well

    The staff were very friendly and we were able to communicate well using Google Translate. I was able to rent a kimono without a reservation because I went early in the day. They had a large selection of kimono in earth tones and pastels with subtle prints, not a large selection of bright colored kimono with bold prints which was fine by me. The prices were reasonable.
    ‼️PRO tip: be sure to look up the weather and layer appropriately because it was cold and windy and kimono outerwear was not available for rent!‼️
    It was such a fun experience, thank you so much!!!

  • Due to them we were able to make wonderful experiences.

    There are very kind people. Thank you very much for everything. Due to them we were able to make wonderful experiences. I greatly appreciate all the love and commitment you have given our group. There was a girl with blue hair that stood out to me. I ibstantly felt sympathy. She styled my hair wonderfully. I'm very sorry for my bad japanese but thank you for doing your best and have a nice week.

    Review on Google Map
  • They have a good selection of female kimonos/yukata

    I reserved a slot online through their website and took up a couple plan, which was ¥13,000. It was pricier than usual as it was a public holiday when we rented. If it's normal days, it'll be ¥10,000/couple. I also added an additional ¥500 each for tulle decoration and obi decoration.
    Shop is small and not the most spacious, but they have a good selection of female kimonos/yukata. After choosing your kimono, you'll be asked to proceed to another female-only room to get dressed and get your hair done. Do wear a petticoat if you're uncomfortable changing around strangers as there's no separate changing room available. The staff dressing me up was professional and will also check with me whether the outfit adjustment was alright or too tight. There's also a lot of obi decoration for you to choose from. Once done with Kimono, you'll be moved to another station where you pick the desired hairstyle and 3 accessories. Last was to choose your own geta before you leave the place.
    Overall, the price is reasonable. My partner and I are both happy and satisfied with our chosen kimono/yukata. The gion outlet we visited was walkable distance from gion-shijo Station. The only thing that wasn't smooth was trying to communicate and understand the staff as they were unable to speak english so it could get rather frustrating. We used Google translate to get our message across.
    Value added service: they have luggage rental available in the store at ¥500/person which was convenient.
