Vacation rental apartments in Kyoto

“Royce’s place was so conveniently located, spacious and clean. I’d highly recommend staying here! It’s a short 4min walk (flat, no hills) from Hanazono station with no stairs for entry, so super easy access when carrying/wheeling luggage. The bamboo forest is a 20min train ride (or short bike ride) away. And Nishiki Market is a 30min train ride away. So easy! As for the place, there’s cooking facilities, a microwave and a washing machine. The two double beds were excellent. If you’re travelling as two couples, Royce’s place had a perfect setup to accomodate this. The heating was cosy. There was a couch in the living space. It was so comfortable and not cramped. The only downside I can think of is paying accommodation tax (but that is standard across Kyoto) and it was only ¥1600 at the time we stayed. Riding the bikes was also super fun and we’re super grateful Royce’s place came with 4 of them! We didn’t have to rent any. :) Thank you Royce for letting us stay! We’d highly recommend this place to other travellers and we’d definitely stay here again. There’s also a 7/11 down the road and it’s so well located near a station.”

“I was wondering if I should bring an iron for clothes during this long stay I had an iron and ironing board in the closet of my room, which was very helpful for me at work. In addition, there was a small table with a power outlet that was easy to connect to a PC, so it was easy to work. The location is good and you can go anywhere by bike. The nearest bus stop is Shinsenenmae. The staff made the daughter kind and made the stay very pleasant. Thank you.”

“Dear Andrea & Mayumi, We had an excellent stay at your Takase River Side Apartment. The bus ride was quick, simple and had clear instructions. Your advice for sight seeing was very good particularly getting to the Golden Pavilion and around to the Bamboo Grove and back to Kyoto station. We loved the Gion area of Kyoto as well as the main shopping district. The Isetan Department Store at Kyoto Station is a must. Getting to the Fushimi Inari-taisha shrine on the train just across the river was simple. There was some really good restaurants locally and of course the 7/11 near the bus stop was a standout. Highly recommend the bento boxes to anyone wanting to sit down for a rest while having some lunch as well as looking at the different plants such the famous Sakura "Cherry Blossoms" ”
