Azukiya

Azukiya is a small family run B&B. Situated in the historical area of Higashiyama. We aim to make everybody feel like they are at home. All rooms are decorated in traditional Kyoto style. We have 2 rooms and a rental townhouse. All rooms have private bath room. Rooms can accommodate 2-5 persons. This January we fully renewed the bathroom downstairs. It is now both convenient and completely private.

Amazing stay and fantastic host

Reviewed By Jwatts87

My partner and mother-in-law stayed at Azukiya for 4 nights in March. We stayed in the self-contained apartment next door. We had a great stay. Really charming, traditional but comfortable. A little chilly, but plenty of heaters and air conditioners to warm the place up. Location is convenient - close to subway. Stairs are pretty steep, so keep in mind if you have mobility issues. Cheiko made a delicious breakfast each morning. My mother is celiac, and Cheiko went to great effort to create an amazing gluten-free breakfast each morning. She really went above and beyond. Overall would highly recommend.

Mitsuki Kyoto

Lovely Stay

Reviewed By ccbct

We stayed two nights in this quiet and peaceful ryokan. Yoko is so kind and helpful, full of recommendations for places to eat and visit (and how to get there!). She really is the most gracious host. We had the Japanese breakfast both mornings which was amazing - beautifully presented, delicious and quite filling. The room we stayed in on the top floor was spacious and spotless and the bed was super comfortable. Thank you, Yoko, for a memorable stay in beautiful Kyoto!

This is my first time enjoying onsen in Kyoto. The host is very kind and friendly. From Kyoto station, you need to get on Kawaramachi line to Kokusaikakan station theb get off and take bus #16-17-19 heading to ohara station. From here you can call to the host and ask for free shuttle bus which will bring you on the endline. I had arrived to Ohara station so late due to delay of flight at around 8.30 PM. However, i still get chance to ride on shuttle bus and enjoy my trip. The atmosphere is very quiet and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Gallery Nozawa Inn

Bestest homestay experience in Japan. Ever.

Reviewed By 17CLim

Our family of 5 has visited japan more than a dozen times. Our stay with Morio and Yoshiko is the bestest ever. Their quaint and historic ryokan is ancient with just enough modern comforts to create a perfect balance of old and new. Our room and shared toilet are clean and comfortable. We rested like babies at night. The gregarious couple took such great care of us; they were like the elders in the family who fussed over our well-being, they were the first to greet us in the morning and stayed up every night to receive us home without fail, enquired about our day, cooked us a variety of delectable food for breakfast in the morning, even took care of our laundry and daily housekeeping. There were different pastries and warm tea waiting for us every night. Love everything about them - ever so very friendly and helpful without being intrusive. They really are the best hosts and we are so privileged to have met and stayed with them. Gonna miss them and while we hope they will retire soon and enjoy their golden years, the energy and life which they bring / breathe into their cosy, immaculate and warm abode sustain and rejuvenate both hosts and guests alike; anyone would be so very lucky to stay with them in the days to come. Thank you, Morio and Yoshiko, from the bottom of our hearts!

屋内愛犬同伴可能な京都市北区の江戸前寿司・京料理・割烹宿

Reviewed By Shirokuman_Chibiwan

概要:屋内愛犬同伴可能な京都市北区の江戸前寿司・京料理・割烹宿。美味しいお寿司や会席料理を、屋内の個室のお座敷で愛犬同伴にて楽しむことができます。 鮨長は、京都北区の大徳寺の東側にある江戸前寿司・京料理・割烹宿です。建物は西陣織の織元が使っていた築120年の京長屋で、落ち着いた和な雰囲気の中で江戸前寿司や京料理を楽しむことができます。 愛犬対応状況ですが、屋内の個室であれば同伴可能です。ただしペット同伴可能な個室が埋まっていれば利用できないため、予定が定まり次第、連絡を差し上げるのが良いかと思います。また宿泊についても、愛犬同宿可能なお部屋があります。犬の宿泊については大型犬を飼っていらっしゃるということもあり、犬種やサイズなどの制約はなく、また多頭での宿泊も可能です。 来訪したのは2022年1月上旬の金曜の夜でした。今回は会席の今出川(11000円)をお願いいたしておりました。内容は、前菜(あん肝)・八寸・焼物・お造り盛り合わせ・煮物(うなぎの八幡巻)・鮨・椀・デザートで構成されておりました。いずれの料理も上品で味わい深く、またコースの最後の江戸前寿司については、もう一貫ずつ頂きたくなるくらいに美味でした。なので、次回は寿司メインのコースを選択したいと思っています。また広い個室で落ち着いてお食事を提供していただけたのもとてもありがたく感じました。更には愛犬用のマグロジャーキーもご準備して頂いたのも、とても嬉しく思いました。 京都で愛犬同伴にて、美味しい江戸前寿司や京料理を楽しみたいのであれば、こちらのお店は十分にお薦めできます。もちろん、犬同伴でない方でも十分楽しめるかと思います。

Higurashi-Sou

Higurashi-Sou is traditional Japanese style guest house in Kyoto, which is open in March, 2015. It's 20 minutes by train or bus from Kyoto station. We are close to Nijo castle, nice access to Kinkakuji temple, Arashiyama area.

Great traditional experience

I stayed in the twin room which was fantastic. Very spacious and had a great view of the garden. The staff was very friendly and was never in the way. The house is very close to the Nijo train station and a bus stop so transportation is easy.

Iru

The real Japanan

Reviewed By Jerzy O

If you choose , what the country really is , you should stay at Iru hotel - Kyoto Japan . Extremely polite service who provide suggestions allowed me to participate in unforgettable cultural events not really mentioned at the tourist guides. The hotel is decorated in a traditional Japanese style with pleasant surprises that convince you that you are in Japan. I decided to come back to Iru hotel .
