Kyoto Guesthouse Roujiya

--- Background --- I spent three nights here in the mixed gender dormitory. The guesthouse is about a 10-minute walk from Nijo Station, a 15-minute walk from Nijo Castle, and a 30-minute walk from Kyoto Imperial Palace. The staff at this guesthouse are warm and friendly, and are able to communicate in English. They were happy to provide local knowledge with respect to sightseeing opportunities. --- Amenities --- The ground floor features a shared communal area including kitchen. Guests are welcome to use this area until midnight, after which quiet time is imposed so that other guests may sleep. A number of tourism brochures are available to guests. The bathroom, showers, and toilets are also located on the ground floor. There are two showers, two male urinals, one regular male/female toilet, and three bathroom sinks. All bathroom facilities were very clean, and soap and shampoo were supplied. I think there was an additional upstairs toilet. Towels are available on a rental basis. Free WIFI and internet is available to guests. Bicycles are available for rental. These are available on a first-come-first-served basis. Each bed featured a privacy curtain and electricity outlet. The facilities as a whole are clean, modern, and well-maintained. --- Miscellany --- The owner of this guesthouse offers a Japanese cooking class which instructs participants in cooking traditional Japanese cuisine.

Staff很nice，我很晚才到，職員還幫我找附近的食店。而且旅館裝修很classic日式，我很喜歡！唯一不方便的是這間旅館在小巷裡，很難找到，幸好我到的時候剛好職員在門外。 很想告訴職員我最後還是走不完景點哈哈。

ゲストハウスは初体験でしたが、全体的に清潔だし、静かで快適に過ごせました。ちなみに他の宿泊者の方とお話ししたりするという機会はありませんでした。

nice hostel with friendly staff, only little hard to find without a smartphone at hand ;-) had a good time there. all in order, just the way I expected it to be.

快適に過ごしました。他の宿泊の方が少なかったせいか、とても静かでした。スタッフの対応が親切、丁寧でとても好意的でした。ただ、初めて行くにはわかり辛いので、明るいうちにホテルの場所を確認した方がいいと思いました。

Guest house Roujiya is close to JR Nijou Station and Kyoto Metro Nijou Station, but sonehow the hotel is not easy to find, but once you know the position of the hotel, you will get convinence traffic service nearby. And still, the people in this guest house also kindly and nice, I think this guest house will be my first choice while I visit Kyoto next time.

This guest house sets the standard: clean, comfortable and well-run. The staff were very helpful and polite. The sleeping areas were clean and comfortable. I slept well each night. It's location, just 5 minutes walk from Nijo station, is perfect for whatever you need or wherever you want to go to in Kyoto. If you're looking for somewhere to base yourself for seeing Kyoto then this is the place for you. If you're looking to get drunk and party then look elsewhere.

床舒服，近商店街，熱心服務，，，，只是難找一點，商店街轉入內街靠右就看見，同得一個插頭，帶拖板

Very nice place to stay. Staff was friendly and helpful.

clean guesthouse, owners were great and helpful, speak english very well, bikes for rent (best way to get around town), they will provide you with maps and recommendations for sites to see and food to eat. It is more like staying at a friends house than a guesthouse!
