Riverside Near Kyoto Station/ 3rd floor/ Wood bath
Beautiful little inn apartments next to the river. Convenient to get around by foot train bus and bicycle. We were able to eat in and cook a little with the condiments provided. Have to be very quiet during early hours when we were still adjusting to time change. Beautiful mesh of new and traditional in unit. Thank you for having us

Riverside Near Kyoto Station/ Wood bath/ 2nd floor
Enjoyed our stay, good location and place to stay for a couple of nights

Advance40m2 DBL-1「Kiyomizu Respire Stay」3min to ST
Comfortable apartment with a super roof terrace (but two floors higher). Breakfast on the terrace every day. Wonderful overview of the city. Sumi was very informative and even took us to the station. Recommended to do: rent bicycles at Cycle Garden (is around the corner) and cycle along the rivers.

River View Near Kyoto Sta. / Wood bath/ 5th Floor
Great location in a quite neighborhood. The hosts provided us a stroller which helped us a lot and the apartment was really clean and comfortable. Recommended!

Room 301 with a view of the Kamo River
It was a great stay! Beautiful view from the window, but it is obstructed by an electric pole. A bit dark to go up our room during night time, but it was safe!

This is one of the best host I have ever had. Thank you Sumi for your help with our stay in Kioto! The flat was perfect for us, couple, spacious and equipped, in interesting area. Additional plus for terrace with a view on city. Sumi recommend us some places where we could find local specialities. She also drop us off us to station. Full recommendation!

Convenient stand to Gion, Kiyomizu Temple, 5 minutes by tram to Fushimi Inari! Cocoon201
Lovely apartment, well located - central, but not in an area that was too busy. Convenient for station but also near restaurants, temples and shrines while being in a quiet neighbourhood. Highly recommend!

River View Near Kyoto Sta. / Wood bath/ 4th Floor
The Airbnb is lovely and just as described (if not better). Clean, modern, loved the bath tub, and the beds (both the western style and the futon in the tatami room were comfortable). The location is very convenient and the surrounding neighborhood is a gem. The hosts were very helpful. I couldn't have asked for better home for our family vacation

Nice place overall, cant think of any negatives honestly, especially for the price.

Hashitabi 302,Nijo castle,Direct bus Kyoto Station
Loved the loft. The windows can stay open without intrusion into your privacy. The neighbourhood is quiet and quaint. Lots of lanes to walk about and explore.

[Chen] Kyoto University Side | 6 people | Near Kamo River | Heating, Air Conditioning + Electric Heating | 60-tatami Machiya Style | Courtyard | Wifi | Entire place for rent
We had a great stay! The host was very responsive and helpful throughout, making everything easy. The apartment itself was spotless and exactly as described, and the price was excellent for the quality. The only things to note are that the bed was a bit shaky and the staircase from the 1st to the 2nd floor was quite steep, so something to keep in mind if mobility is a concern. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend it!

Miyama FUTON&Breakfast Rural Kyoto
Absolutely gorgeous place with very welcoming hosts. We had a great time and we were served delicious dinner and breakfast after we took a bike ride around the neighborhood to see the gorgeous local temples and vistas

遥華~house /Central area for couple /西院駅5分
this was THE BEST air bnb we ever stayed in. she was so thoughtful. not only did she give local recommendations, but also even left bandages, and shower towels, hair caps and all sorts of items just in case we needed them. she was so so kind and so lovely. I would definitely recommend to anyone else. if I'm back in Kyoto I would love to stay here again

Sanjo Keihan st/A whole house/Gion
We had a wonderful time here. The house was spacious, clean, and had a view of the river with Sakura trees. It was in Gion with a number of restaurants, train stations, and other stores in walkable distance. I hope to stay here again next time my family comes to Kyoto!
