Hostel vacation rentals in Shimogyo Ward

Excellent room, the kitchen is super clean and easy to use. The people are friendly and have great recommendations for things to do in the neighborhood. The showers, the room, and the neighborhood are all clean and welcoming. would come back for sure

This place is just perfect for a trip away from Kyoto! The hostel is so tidy and clean and comfy. We received an immediate message upon booking to confirm our plans with check-in details. The staff were very sweet, helpful, and friendly and this was an excellent location in a quieter part of the city – across the river and away from the crowds and perfect to still get to be in Arashiyama. The hostel is walkable to the onsen and provides a couple for a discount for entry!

Exactly what I was looking for!

Our group had a wonderful stay! Hosts were kind and location was great.

Nice place to stay and easy to find it. I hope one day gonna stay in there.

This is a hostel but not like any hostel in USA. So clean, private, safe, and comfortable. Wang greeted us and made wonderful recommendations so we went to he Monkey Park (WOW) amazing views in their habitat and views, then Hot Springs and Bamboo forest all within walking distance. Ate and drank and local places recommended that we would never have found. Next day - took Uber to Golden Temple. Such a short stay but did so much. Thank you Mulan and Wang! Highly recommend.

The (unfortunately only very short) time with Yusuke and Mariko was very, very nice! We felt right at home, it smelled good and you can tell that they put a lot of energy and heart into the house. Yusuke also gave us many great tips for the area. The neighborhood is cozy and much more pleasant than the city center. Bicycles can also be rented, which is a lot of fun in Kyoto. Thank you, we'll be happy to come back!

Thanks for a good stay

Had a great stay here. Everything is clean and everything was as described. I will stay here again the next time I visit Kyoto. highly recommended!

Very clean house and very comfortable to stay in.Self check-in is very friendly and the🥹 location is also relatively close to Kyoto Station.

very responsive and helpful host, unique experience of a shared amenities space and the room given was clean with ample space to move about

I had a lovely time and it’s a great location - very quiet but close to everywhere you need to be. Walls are thin but wasn’t really an issue and the staff are so lovely!

Lovely lovely host and family! Very very welcoming and helpful. Room is very clean and comfortable. Million praises, no complaints! Definitely come again!

A very nice place to stay in for a few days, the building is really amazing and the mood of the Cafe and guest house is great !

For the first time alone, I chose a tour, for people who are not required to stay, this is definitely a very good choice. There are things in the hotel, there is also a small kitchen where you can cook, Kiyomizu Temple, Kamogawa, Shijo shopping street, etc. Only walking distance, I am very happy to stay, I will stay here again in Kyoto.Thank you for the hospitality of a few young ladies, English was good, communication was not a problem at all.

Close to Kyoto Station, it was a very pleasant place to stay.

The accommodation and its facilities were as neat and cozy as the photos, and both the host and guests of the accommodation respected each other and had a pleasant stay. I recommend it if you're looking for a single person accommodation.

Since the location was quite far from my daughter’s dorm, I almost canceled my reservation. But the many great reviews made me curious, and it turns out staying here really is that comfortable — especially because of the extra space, which is quite generous and helps maintain privacy. Big thanks to the owner for being very responsive and explaining the hotel details clearly and in an easy-to-understand way, even though my Japanese skills are quite limited. Will definitely stay here again if I visit Kyoto in the future.

This hostel is beautiful - it is decorated in the traditional Japanese style with a little garden, tatami mats, and low tables. It’s close to public transportation and for the price it’s a great experience. The hostel is very clean and I really enjoyed hanging out in the communal spaces. I usually don’t spend much time in the hostels I stay at but this one had a really nice atmosphere & the other guests were great to chat with in the evenings.

It's always the best place to stay in Kyoto. Thank you!

Great place for solo travelers. The other guests were also very respectful. The location is also very peaceful for a nice evening stroll

It was a late check-in, but the instructions were easy to understand and I was able to enter the room smoothly.I arrived late at night and left early in the morning, so I did not meet the staff, but there was no trouble at all.I think it's thanks to the simple and accurate guidance and the well-organized facilities.I felt that attention was paid to the details, and that it was a wonderful business. In many guest houses where many people come and go, there are many facilities where shoes and personal belongings are scattered, but this place had a system in place to keep things organized. The system of changing into personal slippers was clean and made a very good impression.In addition, there was a bakery nearby that was open early in the morning, so we had no trouble with breakfast and had a pleasant time. I'd love to stay again.Thank you!

Really friendly host and comfy bed. Maybe bring earplugs though cause the beds make sound if you're below someone stirring around it's hard to sleep.Also some rude people banging on the stairs and playing their videos out loud but that's not the Airbnb fault. I just was too shy to tell them to be quiet haha

Shared room w 5 others, expect some noise for people moving about while asleep. Some people may enter and exit and may interrupt sleep. That said, it is an excellent place for sleeping in and resting throughout the day since they have a quiet bottom floor where people work and do things. Fridge is there too for you to keep some food. There is a *** water*** dispenser so you don't have to purchase water.
