Guest Reviews

• Sue (10/5): Great central place in Kyoto. Lots of greenery around too - Great location and nice size room. Enjoyed the balcony. Used the washing machine.
• Anke (9/5): Trop charmant ! - Endroit charmant et très confortable. Emplacement au top!
• Helena (10/5): Extremely enjoyable. - This is my come to property if I ever return to Kyoto. Great location, extremely clean, comfortable bed, roomy and quiet. Highly recommend. Nothing
• LQ (10/5): Amazing stay at a great property and location - Everything! We had a great stay and the view from our suite was fantastic. The apartment is well-equipped and it was really wonderful to come back to the comfortable apartment after a day of waking around. None.
• Celine (9/5): - La belle décoration et l'ameublement japonais. Le balcon avec vue sur les montagnes au loin (j'avais l'appartement au 4 ème étage, aux étages inférieurs la vue donne plus sur la maison d'en face). Le calme dans l'appartement. Le confort. La localisation dans une petite rue calme et à proximité à pied de la rivière, des restaurants, du quartier commerçant moderne avec centre commerciaux d'un côté et quartier Gion de l'autre, et à 30 mn de la gare. Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de réception sur place pour fairele check-in ou poser des questions, c'est à 5 minutes à pied, mais ça n'a pas été très important pour moi. Pour information, Il y a un bar au rez-de-chaussée avec une terrasse. C'était très calme les 5 nuits où j'y étais parce qu'il n'y avait presque personne.
• Murata (7/5): - 清潔を感じた 特別無し
• Elisabeth (6/5): Basic, clean guesthouse in a great location - This is a simple guesthouse in a good location, close to everything but on a quiet side street. The rooms are fairly spacious but the lighting is a bit dreary. The rooms were a bit dreary with bad lighting. There is no front desk staff- you check in at a hotel meant door to get your keys. It’s a very simple place.
• Livia (10/5): Ottima posizione. Hotel pulito. Camera spaziosa - Ottima posizione a Gijon. Vicina metro e bus. Molto tranquillo Assistenza ospiti dal front desk super. Molto gentili e sempre pronti a soddisfare le richieste Nulla
• Emma (10/5): It was mine and my husbands honeymoon & we wanted a central location. This was it! In a very busy city it was peacef - EVERYTHING! Location, staff, rooms & views None
• Romy (8/5): Clean, easy access, great location, friendly staff - Clean, friendly bilingual staff, good location, easy access Check in at another location (heavy suitcase in rain) not convenient.
• Eleonora (6/5): -
• Wojciech (9/5): Good location and recommended - Location was great, very close to Gion and all touristic sites, while slightly away from noisy streets. The street itself is really nice for walking with lots of cafes and restaurants. Room was spacious, balcony nice and cleaning was outstanding. Staff were helpful and friendly and we really enjoyed our stay. The room was a little dated
• Yinsan (9/5): 很棒👍 - 地理位置佳，性價比高。 簡易廚房，方便使用；廁所防滑，很適合帶老人或小孩入住；巷子裡本來就安靜，隔音也算不錯；床和枕頭很好睡；走路三分鐘之內，就有便利商店和蔬果店。 不知為何，我們住的那間，網路訊號時好時壞；簡易廚房希望能附上筷子🙏
• Akar (4/5): Ziemlich abgenutzte und kalte Zimmer. - Zimmer nicht so modern und clean wie auf den Fotos. Alles ziemlich abgenutzt. Im Zimmer war es extrem Kalt und es hat gestunken.
• Bert (10/5): Kyoto mit Style - Schöne große Zimmer angelehnt an den japanischen Stil. Großer Balkon mit Ausblick, Küchenecke mit Mikrowelle. Tolle Lage zu Gion, Einkaufen, Restaurants und Bars, Bahnen, Tempel, etwas weiter zum Bahnhof (Taxi empfehlenswert, es gibt einen „international friendly“ Stand, den allerdings nur wenige Taxis ansteuern). Im Erdgeschoss ist eine Bar, die allerdings etwas steril und nicht zuverlässig geöffnet ist. Einchecken 2 Min. entfernt im Kyoto Riverview House, auschecken durch Schlüsseleinwurf in einem Kasten im Eingangsbereich.
• Joyce (9/5): Great stay near Sakura Alley - The location was good, though slightly far from Kyoto Station. The place was spacious and clean. Had helpful staff. Across the street from Sakura Alley.
• Michael (9/5): Perfect location, just enough out of the way of the hustle and bustle and quiet. - Everything, location, walking distance to main shopping and eating streets and to the major shrines. Very neat, clean.
• Karim (9/5): -
• Katrine (10/5): -
• Matteo (9/5): - Totale Veramente veramente straconsigliato
• ana amelia (10/5): Excelente hospedagem - excelente espaço, ótima localização Espaço, quarto bem grande
• Insuk (8/5): Great value overall. - Great value considering the size of the room. Location and view were considerably great. Wi-fi was very slow and connection was inconsistent. Was not able to watch youtube even in 480p.
• Mitchell (10/5): - So much space, very traditional looking decor, close to everything
• Pierrick (9/5): - Très bon emplacement (à deux du bus et pas loin du métro), appartement spacieux avec tout le nécessaire (kitchenette, lave-linge dans l’appartement), propre et très belle vue de la chambre. Le personnel était bien veillant, sachant que l’accueil n’est pas dans la même rue, nous avons été surpris qu’ils aient amené nos valises directement dans notre appartement. Wi-fi trop lent (impossible de charger Netflix par exemple).
• Sofia Maria (8/5): -
• Helene (10/5): Perfect location, spacious home from home. - The location is quiet and peaceful yet within walking distance to everything. Very clean, modern and spacious with a Japanese feel. Washing machine/dryer really convenient. Balcony was nice for fresh air. Everything was excellent, maybe a tea towel to dry dishes but that’s just a small thing.
• Firozeh (10/5): - Utmärkt ställe. Torkdukar och lite mer köksreskap kunde göra ställe helt perfekt. Men jag äe så nöjd ändå.
• Woo Joon (10/5): 교토 또 가면 여기서 무조건 - 일본에서 이정도 위치에, 이정도 가격에, 이정도 퀄리티의 숙박 시설 찾기 어려울듯. 숙소도 크고 안전하고 조용한 골목에 있고 직원도 너무 친절함. 숙소도 너무 아늑하고 진짜 다시 교토가면 여기서 머물듯? 딱히 없음.... 엘베도 좋고 와이파이도 좋고 걍 다 좋음
• TING HSIN (9/5): 一層二間，剛好可以和家人在隔壁間，這樣很方便。要拿東西也不用跑上跑下的。整體來說很棒。 - 房間很大很乾淨，有洗衣機，還有衣櫥，床好睡。是在巷子中所以是鬧中取靜。地點算是中間，到要去的景點走路都是15-20分內會到的， 無。
• Giora (10/5): - Everything! Very.spacious, full of light, comfortable beds....in one word - excellent! The washing+dryer works great for washing but not so much as dryer
• Kelsey (9/5): Clean room and comfortable beds! - Room and beds were super comfy, everything was extremely clean. Great location with an easy check-in process. Would definitely stay again! Overall a great value as well.
• Sam (10/5): -
• Flavia (9/5): -
• Didier (8/5): - Parfaite situation géographique proche du centre historique de Kyoto. C’est plus un apart-hôtel qu’un hôtel mais la chambre était très confortable (mix d’une chambre traditionnelle japonaise mais un lit). Très bon rapport qualité/prix.
• Anna-Lise (10/5): -
• ailun (10/5): 绝对满意，希望下次还可以入住这个房间 - 实在是超出我的预期，这绝对是我在日本两次旅行期间居住过最满意的房子，房间也是最宽敞的，床睡的非常舒服，还配有好看的睡袍。厨房有微波炉和一些厨具，可以买很多好吃的回来加热。尤其要夸一下绝美的阳台景观！每天早晨我和我的丈夫都会去楼下的便利店买好早餐在阳台边吃边欣赏风景。宽我无时无刻不怀念这些在my k house住的日子，希望下次来京都还有幸可以住到这个房间！ 没有
• Celia (7/5): -
• Alessandro (10/5): Great stay , perfect location. - Perfect location , big apartment, all amenities. Responsive and kind staff. Nothing :)
• Kai-hu (9/5): -
• Crystal (9/5): -
• NAM (10/5): - 위치와 크기가 정말 좋았습니다! 가족 4인이 머무르기에 정말 좋은 숙소였습니다:-)
• Christina (9/5): -
• almehairi13 (9/5): - Location, room size and value
• Anastasiia (10/5): -
• Ashwin (10/5): - Clean, good area, great staff. There was a traditional Japanese touch to this house even though it was modern. Loved the tea table.
• Michela (10/5): Camera con fascino da Ryokan e comodità da Hotel - Tutto. La posizione, la pulizia, la vista dalla camera eccezionale da cui si vedevano due templi. Letto comodissimo. La ragazza della reception é gentilissima, parla bene inglese e ci ha aiutato a spedire le valigie da Kyoto a Tokyo. Se ritornerò a Kyoto soggiornerò sicuramente di nuovo presso questo hotel. -

Fantastic locations close to subway and busses, fantastic restaurants all over! Great neighborhood and great and friendly bartender below. Nothing
• Boy Sandi (8/5): -
• LIISA (9/5): - Huoneistohotelli, jonka sijainti loistava. Huone oli siisti ja viihtyisä. Minikeittiö ja kylpyhuone olivat toimivat. Alakerran baari oli mukava yllätys.
• Joshua (10/5): All good would recommend d - All good, great sized room, friendly staff and good facilities. All good
• Christopher (9/5): -
• Alexander (9/5): Pleasant 3 night stay - Large room, slight view, handy location
• Juan Manuel (8/5): -
• Vincent (9/5): Wonderful very modern and stylish Japanese hotel. I hope to return soon! - I loved the whole architecture and layout of the rooms. Very Japanese and very modern. The room was very comfortable and well set out. The way to the reception and court yard was very welcoming. The location was also excellent. Very close to everything. The staff were so helpful. I was very impressed with how the washing machine cycle time was accessible on the TV so we didn’t have to wait where the laundry was. Very modern and practical. Having to leave.
• Leslie (9/5): - Très bon emplacement, calme, très propre, lits très confortables. Les odeurs de nourriture fris qui venaient des aérations de la cuisine.
• Pascal (10/5): -
• Elaine Lesley (8/5): Very comfortable sleep & lovely staff checking in & out - Location balcony views Not enough hangers for clothes no mirror in bedroom to blow dry hair
• Xiaowen (10/5): Excellent experience. Wonderful location and extremely good service. - Excellent location. Extremely friendly and helpful staff.
• Elodie (10/5): -
• Samantha (10/5): A well-located, spacious and comfortable apartment in a great area of Kyoto. - The room was incredibly spacious and well-facilitated. It had everything we could need for our stay! Nothing comes to mind.
• Rita and Mike (10/5): An Outstanding Hotel - love the laundry after traveling over a week. Very tidy and clean room. The neighborhood is filled with restaurants nothing
• Tao (10/5): - Location, room facilities None
• Anne (9/5): -
• Magdalena (9/5): -
• Gabrielle (7/5): -
• Noga (10/5): Perfect value for money - We had an amazing stay. The rooms are so beautiful and welcoming, the location's fantastic in a quiet street just around from where everything happens. Perfect value for money. Absolutely nothing.
• Gilles (9/5): - Très bon emplacement près du centre de Kyoto nous avons fait les principaux sites du centre à pied. La chambre est spacieuse et bien équipée Malheureusement le placard de la machine à laver ainsi que les toilettes étaient très mal odorants heureusement que l’on pouvait fermer la porte. C’est vraiment dommage vu le prix de la chambre. Ce qui n’enlève rien aux qualités par ailleurs. Je re choisirai encore cet établissement si je revenais à Kyoto
• Andrea (9/5): - Ottima posizione, staff competente e accogliente (lingua inglese).
• Agata (10/5): -
• Michaela (10/5): Tolle Lage!!! - Das Hotel hat eine sehr gute Lage. Man kann vieles zu Fuß machen und auch an Abend ist man sofort im Gion Viertel. Der Balkon ist ein zusätzliches Plus. Wir haben das Hotel geliebt für 4 Tage Kyoto.
• Frank (9/5): -
• Nigel (7/5): - Poorly stocked kitchen - no soap, oil, salt or pepper. The hotel needs to do something about the noise - thumping music from 4pm to 4 am every day.
• john (9/5): - Excellent location near great restaurants, neighborhoods, attractions, and public transportation. Check-in is in a nearby location - the process was effective and the staff very helpful in explaining things and getting us and our luggage to the room.
• Marius (10/5): -
• Sarah (9/5): - Excellent location. Very friendly helpful staff.
• Christin (10/5): - Einfach super. Größe ist einfach unfassbar toll. Großes Wohnzimmer und toller tatami Bereich Es war sauber und es war gute Luft im Raum. Man kann unten gemütlich sitzen und wer mag eine rauchen. Draußen auf der Terrasse abends zu sitzen war super schön oder auch morgens mit einem aus dem nahegelegenen seven trinken. Es gibt nichts. Wir waren zu kurz da wären gern ein paar Tage länger geblieben.
• Saskia (10/5): Goede locatie, ruim en brandschoon - Het is ruim, brand schoon en op een perfecte locatie. Alles op loopafstand en toch in een rustige omgeving. We hadden moeite om de wasmachine in de kamer te vinden, maar deze bleek in een kast naast de keuken te zijn. De kast had een schuifdeur.
• Amber (10/5): Great relaxing home while in Kyoto. - Loved this boutique hotel for the kitchen to make simple meal and east facing balcony for breakfast. Great mid-trip stay as laundry machine and drying rack which is best for traveling light and compact around Japan. The beds were spacious and nice tatami floor. Perfect location across river from Gion so easy access to restaurants and steps away from river path which my partner used for running in early AM. Bus stop only two minutes away but train line more like 10 min walk-not a problem because nice walk near river and pretty streets. Only had one big plate and two small plates for meal. Was missing appropriate spatula for nonstick plan but quickly provided by staff with no bother. No oil, salt or pepper but got salted butter and that worked great.

• NORIKO (10/5): 最高の立地とお部屋 - 今回は祇園祭を楽しむために滞在しました。 立地がとてもよく、大通りから1本入ったところなので、夜もとても静かで良かったです。 1階がBARなので、夜でも出入りするときに寂しくないです。 テラス越しに東山の風景が見えるのも癒されてとても良かったです。 お部屋はキッチン付でちょっとした料理も作れましたし、洗濯機があるのもとても助かりました。 長めの滞在に最高のお宿でした。 悪い点は何も浮かばないです。 不満まったくなしです。
• 果 (9/5): -
• Eleanor (9/5): -
• Alissa (8/5): Quiet and comfortable - The room was clean and comfortable, the location was quiet, and it had a mountain view! I was easily able to get a good night of sleep. The kitchen was small but convenient for preparing snacks. There were a couple train stations, a bunch of cute shops, places to get food, and the river within walking distance! The staff was very friendly and spoke English (I can speak Japanese so that's not essential for me but it's useful to know if you don't speak Japanese but you do speak English and you're nervous about communication with hotel staff in Japan). The elevator was a bit shabby and some of the wallpaper was a bit stained; that doesn't bother me since it was still clean and didn't smell bad or bother my allergies or anything, but it might bother other people?
• Eddie (9/5): Well equiped unit in great location! - Really great spot for a visit to Kyoto. The unit was really big big by japans standards, with a small kitchenette, seperate area for the toilet and shower room, a washing machine and balcony. Location is great. Would highly recommend.
• Sarah (10/5): To get the keys is a 2 min walk from the hotel itself. Manager communicates this prior to arrival and they also can hol - I liked how close the location was to all the attractions, it was very quiet, and the views were immaculate. The Japanese style made you feel like you were experiencing the culture. Brought back soo many good memories. Also, like how the management communicated how to check in and out. N/A
• Barbara (10/5): - Beautiful accommodation with all the extras. In a great location, walking distance to the market & lots of places to eat. We would definitely stay here again. The only drawback was the dryer took along time to dry, but the hotel provided a clothes horse which was handy.
• Adam (10/5): Exceptional - I loved how friendly all the staff were... Excellent facilities and the perfect location The fact we had to leave :-( i wish I had booked more nights.
• Maiken (10/5): Amazing place, wanted to stay forever! Highly recommended to all! - Beautiful decoration, super comfortable beds and pillows, amazing location - in a very pretty quiet area but a short 7min walk to the main buzz around Kawaramachi station! Nice view from the balcony (with two chairs on the balcony - which is not as common as you would expect), friendly staff, easy check-in, a nice bar downstairs, plus extra little details like the Jukata and water bottles in the fridge made the experience top notch! We sent our luggage from our previous hotel in Tokyo ahead of time, to my k house in Kyoto and they accepted it with no problems - and our bags were ready and waiting for us in our room by the time we arrived! Then they were also happy to look after our bags all day after we checked out. We even saw a Japanese Geisha girl walking past the Kyoto river view house (around 5pm when we collected our bags). Will 100% be staying there again if I return and highly recommend to anyone else looking for a place to stay in Kyoto ! Nothing - wished we could stay longer!
• Harshita (10/5): Beautiful and spacious - Rooms are very spacious, clean and equipped with all necessary facilities. Property is located on a very quaint and quiet street, walkable from a lot of tourist attractions and bus stations. Staff is friendly and polite. Definitely recommend it.
• Tykie (10/5): High quality - Excellent location, quiet, staff was very helpful, room was spacious and beautiful
• Wayne (9/5): Superb -
• Abdel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Carl (8/5): - Conveniently located in quiet alleyway. The hotel doesn’t have a staffed reception area so it’s not really a fully serviced hotel. Checking in etc is managed from another nearby hotel or support is via WhatsApp. Room cleaning and the usual amenities are provided.
