Townhome holiday rentals in Kita Ward

In a quiet and pleasant neighborhood (lots of good affordable restaurants nearby), this is a typically Japanese house impeccably organized, very spacious for a couple, with charming details (the indoor garden adjoining the bedroom) and a very responsive hostess. We will come back without hesitation!

Very satisfied with this homestay experience, Harry's house is so excellent, two floors above and below, the rest and leisure space is separated, equipped with projection and sound, and the lighting design in the house is also very cozy.The house itself is a very traditional Japanese house with a refined little yard, at the same time it is conveniently equipped with a very modern home appliance system. Harry is very nice, he came to the bus station to pick us up, and also recommended very authentic daily materials, and I will come to Kyoto again next time I come to Kyoto!

I had the pleasure of staying here about eight years ago and everything was perfect again! Great location across the street from a gorgeous Kyoto icon, Toji Temple, nice and close to public transportation including the city’s mega train station, and wonderful, gracious hospitality from the host. One of my favorite Airbnb stays ever!

This house is lovely awesome and perfectly clean. Our stay was wonderful and more worth the price. The private onsen inside the tiny Japanese garden is beautiful. The location is very quiet, near the river and less 5 minutes by walk from the station and konbini. Everything you need is provided inside the house, so you don’t have to worry about

This cozy home is just 2 mins walking from the historic resort Toji Temple and 8 mins walking to Toji station which is convenient to everywhere we want to visit. This entire home is very quiet and charming. It’s a typical Japanese style decor inside and has everything we need . I’ll strongly recommend here to everyone who wants to explore Kyoto.

Wow, a great little house in a quiet area. We've been so happy to stay at Mayumi's place, where everything was just fine. And a host who was sweet and communicative. Definitely a huge recommendation!

It was a fabulous time staying at Koichi’s house! Koichi and his wife were very hospitable, introduced all the details of the house. We definitely will visit them again

We simply loved staying in this home. The location is ideal for experiencing Kyoto. Peaceful and quiet and yet five minutes to metro/bus stops. And we also walked to many sites and temples. Ume is a gracious host and the home is a beautiful and historic building. We were very comfortable with two adults and two teenagers. Highly recommended.

The host was very friendly, and also came to the station to pick us up for our luggage, and introduced the nearby pharmacy supermarket, etc.

Yukari’s listing was just like the pictures. Every appliance worked great, it was very clean, and it’s a very beautiful style.

We were very happy with our stay. Apartment was spacious for the two of us. High water pressure, instant hot water, good AC, adequate kitchen utensils and basic seasonings. Host was responsive and helpful. Having bed linens changed every few days was a nice bonus.

We stayed at the Saito family's house with our two sons (14, 9), and we loved it very much! The location was excellent — a short walk to the bus and subway stops, with short rides to major stops like Kyoto Station and Gion. It is also in a quiet residential area, which made us feel like we were living there for a week. They were responsive, and the place was clean and spacious for four of us. Our kids loved the wooden bath and the door opening to the courtyard. We will definitely stay at the Saito family's place when we visit Kyoto again in the near future.

Fantastic place to stay while in Kyoto. The amenities and service were great. The house was perfect for our family of five.

Nice home if you want a traditional Japanese experience.

I stayed at Hanare's place with my two daughters (ages 18,19) and it worked out great for our trip to Kyoto. The place is really well done and has a great feel to it. My daughters really appreciated that they each got their own bed and that the AC worked very well. There is AC downstairs and in the bedrooms but the entrance and the upstairs hallway do not have AC. It wasn't a big deal but the hallway could get pretty warm. The only bathroom is on the first floor and the bedrooms are on the second floor. My only warning is the staircase, I would say it's more of a ladder. We were fine with it but it was definitely interesting getting the luggage upstairs. If someone in your group has difficulty getting around it might not be the best place. We used several of Hanare's recommendations and they were great. It's right by the main cobblestone street that leads up to the Kiyomizu-dera. We really enjoyed our stay and liked that it had a very clean modern yet traditional Japanese style.

I was visiting my family in Kyoto from the US. This accommodated 7 people very well with plenty of beds snd linens. It was helpful to stay here midway through our trip to be able to wash clothes. The kitchen was great space to have many meals and storage for food. There were many dishes. Bathrooms were very clean and many options for shower and bath. It was a great place for my family visit!

We had a wonderful stay with family and friends from all over the world. 20 of us stayed and we had plenty of space. We felt right at home. Very convenient location, near Kyoto station but far enough to be in a quiet local area, with small bars and sento! Thank you for being a great host!

Great place and peaceful. I also enjoyed the neighborhood with the narrow roads and the traditional look of some of the houses made the place feel more authentic.

We really enjoyed the location and feeling of the home. It’s easy to get everywhere. It’s a perfect retreat to come back to after a long day of sightseeing.

HiMoewYa is a good host, answered our questions very promptly, even when we asked for a mosquito repeller, she sent us a variety of choices. I will recommend to my friends.

I really liked this Japanese house! It looks totally traditional and cozy. I find the small tree in the middle area very exciting, makes the whole thing very friendly. The decor is beautifully simple and yet tasteful. The location was also great. It is quiet, but still close enough to easily reach everything. Would come back anytime! You are always happy after long tours of the city and the surroundings when you are back:) This is how I imagined my Kyoto experience!

If you’re asking yourself whether or not it’s worth it to book here— the answer is an absolute YES. It is truly one of the most beautiful homes we’ve ever stayed in. The outdoor tub is heavenly and was the best way to beat the summer heat during our stay. The beds are so comfortable, the house was the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever seen (and I’ve been lucky enough to stay in many excellent ones!), and the location is prime for anything you might want to get up to. We couldn’t be more grateful to have experienced Kyoto for the first time here! Truly the most peaceful place to stay in the most peaceful city. Also, the AC is the crispest I’ve ever been in, which was a must. Great all around!

A beautiful and convenient place to stay in Kyoto!

We enjoyed our stay! Thanks Karen :)
