Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Kyoto

Ich war jetzt schon zum zweiten Mal dort. Diesmal in beiden Etagen. Die beiden Wohnung sind sehr schön, sauber und ordentlich. Die Gastgeber sind mega freundlich und hilfsbereit. Immer wieder gern 💪🏻

The stay was perfect. The communication was spot on, clear instructions. The host had some nice recommendations for the area which we tried two. Those were great. The house was perfect too. Loved the nice 3 story design and cleanliness. The washroom was also quite nice. Godd water Temperature, and excellent pressure. Can recommend.

This home was perfect for our family (parents + 2 college-age daughters). We appreciated the historical and beautiful home. The sleeping arrangements were particularly good - very comfortable mattresses, pillows, and linens. There were good safety features too, like flashlights around and well-lit stairs. We appreciated being a bit away from the crowds near the center of town but still near subways and buses. We stayed for a week and so explored the quiet neighborhood pretty thoroughly, and particularly enjoyed seeing a small school bus full of very sleepy preschoolers in their small straw hats a couple of times! We will definitely try to stay again on our next trip.

Beautiful home next to Lake Biwa. Its a refreshing break from the city and the neighbors are all very nice. The house was very clean and spacious, the host was always responsive and helpful, even gave me a ride when I left back to the train station so I didn't have to walk with all my luggage. Only downside would be the steep stairs, so if you have balance issues maybe sleep in the room downstairs. Overall very nice place and my 2 weeks went by too quickly here. Will definitely rebook next time I'm in Kyoto/Osaka area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cozy Cottage. The house was very clean and spacious. For us, the best part was the location. It truly felt like we were locals living in the community where Cozy Cottage is located. All of the staff were also very friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time, and the stay definitely made our time in Kyoto extra special. I would recommend this stay to anyone looking for a bit of a slower pace in Kyoto.

10/10 – Absolutely Exceptional Stay! This was hands down one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had. The home is peaceful, beautifully maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It’s also a fantastic place for families with children—safe, spacious, and welcoming. The complimentary bicycles were a thoughtful and fun bonus that made exploring the area even more enjoyable. Shinsuke was an outstanding host—warm, responsive, and always happy to assist with any questions. If you're considering staying here, don’t hesitate—do yourself a favour and book it. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Shinsuke.

Jun's apartment is wonderfully located, near the Gingakuji but far enough from the tourist streets to be extremely quiet and restful. He was a wonderful host and staying here was a great pleasure.

Wir haben zum Abschluss unserer Japanreise 5 Tage in Ikuyos Wohnung verbracht. Es war die geräumigste Unterkunft, die wir während unserer Reise hatten, perfekt für uns als Familie. Wir haben uns über die Möglichkeit, Essen zu kochen, und den großen Tisch gefreut. Auch sonst fanden wir die Einrichtung durchdacht und praktisch, mit diversen Möglichkeiten, Dinge abzulegen oder aufzuhängen. Man gelangt vom Bahnhof schnell mit zur Wohnung, und die Anbindung an Sehenswürdigkeiten ist gut. Die Straße ist wirklich laut, wie auch schon in anderen Kommentaren erwähnt. Auch mit geschlossenen Fenstern hört man den Verkehr. Wir haben trotzdem gut geschlafen, und die Klimaanlage hat für angenehme Temperaturen gesorgt.

The house is very clean. Useful amenities and one of the best bathrooms. Best for elderly guests since no need to use any stairs. Walking distance to Dainachi station.

We stayed for two weeks with two adults and a child and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The space is well-equipped but compact, which we’re accustomed to, and the outdoor area and washer were great bonuses. The location is excellent—a short walk to Shin-Osaka Station (8 minutes) or the metro station (5 minutes). There are plenty of convenience stores nearby, as well as many restaurants within walking distance.

May was terrific. If you want to live like a local in a high-end apartment, this place is it. Beautifully decorated. No shoes. Proper heated bathtub. 4 floor walkup. Not a place for big suitcases as staircase is very narrow by USA standards but spacious in the rooms with large closets. The tatami bedroom is lovely. But for those who want a western bed, the 2 small singles with very firm mattresses are an alternative.

Comfortabel appartment met een super dakterras (wel twee etages hoger). Alle dagen op het terras ontbeten. Prachtig overzicht over de stad. Sumi was zeer informatief en heeft ons zelfs naar het station gebracht. Aanrader om te doen: fietsen huren bij Cycle Garden (zit om de hoek) en langs de rivieren fietsen.

Sehr gute Lage. Sehr sauber. Sehr gute Kommonikation mit dem Gastgeber. Wir waren mit 7 Personen da, das war perfekt. Mehr als 10 Personen halte ich für schwierig

die Unterkunft ist sehr schön, ein tolles Erlebnis insgesamt. die Umgebung hat auch viel zu Fuß zu bieten. einziger Minuspunkt waren die Haare bei der Bettwäsche die nicht von uns stammen. Ansonsten kann ich die Unterkunft sehr weiterempfehlen.

The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the experience feel warm and personal. The space was clean, quiet, and had everything I needed. It was also a great way to experience a more local and authentic side of Kyoto. I’m really grateful for their hospitality and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful stay.

Great place to serve as a home base between outings. Quiet and relaxing.

We had a great time at this apartment! This was the perfect place to stay in Kyoto. there is a ton to do in the immediate area around the neighborhood and May was an amazing host!

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Kyoto! The place was spotless, comfortable, and very convenient—located in a great area that made it easy to explore the city. Our host, Ka, was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the stay, which made everything even smoother. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Kyoto!

May is an excellent host . lots of great eating in a short walk in every direction. The apartment was exceptionally clean and May went out of her way to help us with any request we made. thankyou May.

5 star to everything! the host, the unit, the location, the communication etc. The unit is spacious enough for four adults, it is clean, quite, We found it to be an easy walk to downtown anywhere. The host is very responsive, communicated well before making the check-in process and stay very smoothy. If we could come again to kyoto we will definitely stay May’s unit ! Thank you May!

Lovely place to stay - clean, big, and very well equipped!

Nicely designed building. Room is tight but cozy. Toilet has heater which is extremely useful in winter. Need to walk a fair distance to the closest train stations.

This accommodation is perfectly located, walking distance from Kyoto station. plenty of food and drinks in the area. plenty of space in the apartment for a little family.
