New Cozy House 8 Minutes Walking to Kyoto Station
Responsive host and a clean, cozy place. Felt just like home.

「Tsurui Goshonishi」2 minutes from the Royal Palace
We had a wonderful stay at Yu’s place in Kyoto. Please follow Yu’s instructions as the location by Apple and Google maps may show to be slightly different (location is on Yoancho and not on the pedestrian walkway). The home is completely renovated with top notch Panasonic fixtures throughout. Area is convenient on the subway line from Kyoto Stn and beautiful near Gosho (former Imperial Palace).

Great Access!Cozy Inn-Max 9-Perfect for long stays
Nomura’s place is a gem especially for a big family like ours during vacation. Everything was so easy, organized, and even the location is the sweet spot because it’s a very peaceful neighborhood. If I would go back to Kyoto, I would try to have this airbnb again!

【Kyoto Toka inn】 Toji Temple, Sakura & Maple
The host responds to messages super fast if you have any questions. It can be improved immediately. The room space is large and the luggage can be fully opened. It is also very quiet at night and very comfortable. A B&B with a high CP value!

8min to bus stop! Free Rental cycle! Good access!
We loved the place, and the area is very accessible. The owner was very kind to lend us bikes, and when we noticed the tires needed air the next day, they made sure everything was ready to use. Overall, it was a great experience and stay :) We’d love to go back if given the chance again

Modern Machiya | Mibu 壬生
The host was very kind and patiently responded to our questions right away.The room was also very clean and clean.Strongly recommended.

【Discovery ship】Luxury Liner and Spaceship House!
We booked Discovery Ship last minute and it turned out to be the best surprise of our trip. The house is new, very clean, and beautifully decorated like a spaceship. Our kids loved exploring it. Kazuya is a wonderful host—great communication and very kind. He personally showed us how everything works. The location is very convenient too. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto! 最後に予約したにもかかわらず、最高の宿に出会えました。家は新しく、とても清潔で、宇宙船をテーマにした素敵なデザイン。子どもたちも大喜びでした。ホストのカズヤさんは返信が早く、親切で、到着時に設備も丁寧に説明してくれました。駅からも近く、アクセスも抜群。次に京都に来るときも、必ずここに泊まりたいと思います!

Convenient and Quiet Stay near Tofukuji Station

Kyoto's Renovated Machiya - Ieno House
Lovely time at Kyoto House! A really fun space, mix of classic Japanese and western style. The doorways are a little low if you’re tall but really no complaints. Would stay again!

"Luo Wuyin no Sokyu" Built in the Taisho era, a traditional Sukiya house just 200m walk from Yasaka Shrine
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wang's lovely home. We really felt like we got to experience a little of what life in a traditional Japanese home is like. The bathrooms were amazing and the location could not have been better. The home was walkable to many major sites and close to public transportation making it easy to tour from our home base. Coming from hotel stays in Tokyo it was nice to have room to spread out a little and we all enjoyed the ability to wash our clothes. This home was a dream come true for this family of four. Wang was helpful in giving detailed instructions for check in - it was a little difficult to find the house the first time because our taxi dropped us off at the wrong house but otherwise everything was smooth and easy.

雲町屋 水影閣 KumoMachiya Suieikaku
The place is really clean and comfy. Most importantly, the landlord constantly responds right away when needed.

Kiyomizu-dera, Kamo River
The house combines modern and Japanese traditional style. Very clean and spacious!

The Peony Hotel Kyoto
Always nice to be one of the first to stay at a brand new Airbnb. Place was very new and clean. Location was great, and lots of rooms (4!) and space for our group. Nice to have western and tatami bed options. Really nice amenities like Dyson hairdryer and clothes steamer which was very handy. Walkable to a supermarket and food options. Only thing was a lack of hooks in the bathroom and shelves to put toiletries on but I know Tabi will add those as she was very thoughtful about the other amenities there! Would definitely stay there again if I’m in Kyoto!

EXPERIENCE JAPAN-大院
Pleasant and rustic house Located in an offbeat but quiet area, conducive to recovery after a day of sightseeing Lovely garden Pleasant host.

New Villa126㎡,luxury kitchen, parking,Nijo castle
This home is beautiful. It’s been recently renovated and it looked, felt and smelled new. The decoration and furnishings were really lovely. It’s in a quiet residential area about 20 minutes from the main shopping and sightseeing area, 10-15 minute walk to station and 3 stops to Kawaramachi markets. It comfortably fits 7 people in 3 different bedrooms, each with their own bathrooms. Appliances and tableware were all high end. It doesn’t have closets in the bedrooms, just a couple of hangers, which seems to be common in Japan hotels. Shogo, our host, was very friendly, super communicative and helpful. Also very generous with his hospitality. This place is not in the middle of the busy sightseeing areas, but it’s relatively central and easy to get to places with public transport. There are also some shops and restaurants in walking distance. Overall, we had a wonderful stay! Very cozy and spacious, and equipped with everything we needed.

Machiya Ounjo Kamikyo
Small townhouse located on a busy street. While taking a bath in the wooden bathtub, you have a beautiful view of a small backyard garden. Just great! We enjoyed it. There are various restaurants all around. However, we were glad that we were traveling with Japanese-speaking people. We would have been lost with English or the Google translator alone.

Mashiya stay in the heart of traditional district
Our stay at Yanbin’s place was great! We really felt at home, at a Japanese home! Place is great, location was awesome! Away from the tourists but still super close to any action Kyoto offers! Yanbin was super friendly, always willing to help and put up with all my questions! Honestly a great place, plenty of room, comfortable and great location! Our kids were very careful around the house, but with so much space it was really great! Everyone had its own corner in the house to enjoy their reading, playing a game, reading a book or sipping a coffee/tea/sake! Highly recommended without a doubt! Thank you Yanbin, see you next time!

NewlyBuilt Cozy House At Kyoto Station 4-5people
There is🈶 a supermarket and shopping mall called Yongwang nearby, and it takes about 15 minutes or less to walk to Kyoto Station.According to the Chinese people's habit, this place is called the alley.Great for families or girlfriends and brothers traveling together.Good value for the money.I'll keep coming back if I need to.

Machiya Stay in Gojo, Near Gion and Kyoto Sta.
I've stayed in many airbnbs, and Hershey's place has been one of the best! The historic tea house was so charming, and we LOVED the outdoor bath/garden!!

8 min to Kyoto Sta, 8 min to World Heritage Sites
We had a short 02 nights stay, the location was near sub-way station and bus stop, which can lead directly to some attraction place. This is a traditional Japan house, fully equipped with all necessary daily needs, great experience. A Special Thanks to Mr. Takeshi on some local recommendation. Nice and memorable stay.

MulanStay SagaArashiyama/Children's room/Private
Great place to be with family in especially with kids. Perfect location if you plan to visit bamboo forest, monkey park and still only 20 min train ride to Kyoto station

Machiya with Open-Air Bath, nearby from Station!
Great host! Super helpful. He came very quickly to help us when the front door lock broke and was very understanding. The house had everything listed and the beds were very comfortable.

Authentic Japanese Villa in Kyoto The Lodge MIWA
What a reprieve and gem this place is. We stated 2 nights and loved the bath house. It's about an hour taxi ride from Kyoto train station where we arrived (we stocked up on some groceries at the 7/11 next to the Taxi station) knowing there weren't options to eat nearby the lodge. We also used the car available to drive and explore on our second day. I will mention there are only 2 wooden chairs to sit on in the entire home unless you sit on traditional floor cushions on the floor so really not comfortable to lounge around on and no outside furniture to relax on while enjoying the surroundings. Other than that we loved the space and getting away from the busy city for a few days.

Three-story Near Kiyomizu Temple withParking
This place is comfortable, well-equipped, very clean and very well located, on a quiet little street, while being close to an exceptional site, charming little souvenir shops and all amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed your stay at Candy's place and highly recommend her place.
