Higashiyama House
seems a little bit better but hard to tell from the video in the linked post. It is in the rear building and on the other side of the property, away from the entry drive, which should both help.
Others have mentioned preferring a garden view over the city view for these reasons and it seems odd the PH doesn't distinguish garden/city for the Park Suites.
Yep. They have two Ninenzaka House suites, and they’re adjacent to each other. The one I had was 308 which not only has the driveway, but also the window to the road on the side of the PH; that’s probably the worst of the two. The other one would be a _little_ better as it would at least avoid having people walking by taking pictures of you, and the only ones who would would be those who are on the main driveway of the hotel. Marginally better. The Yasaka pagoda view is really worth it though, so tough choice.
