This 4-star homestay offers a lift and luggage storage space. The property is 2 km from the city centre and 1.3 km from Sanjusangen-do Temple. Even though it was just a short 2-night, 3-day trip, this place made me feel like I had been living in Kyoto for ages. The hotel’s traditional Japanese wooden architecture was really fascinating, and staying there was such a unique experience. I was a bit worried the room might be too small, but it was perfectly comfortable for two people. The bathroom facilities were especially amazing, so if you’re someone who enjoys bathing, I’d highly recommend this place. The host, Kevin, was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and he quickly took care of any requests we had. He really went above and beyond. Everything—from the Wi-Fi and hot water to the heating, bedding, and cleanliness—was spot on, with no issues at all. Plus, the location was fantastic. It’s right in the city center, so you can easily walk to major spots like Kiyomizu-dera, Pontocho, and Gion, which also saved us some transportation costs. I’d definitely come back to stay here on my next Kyoto trip!
