The room was incredibly spacious—more than enough room for luggage, changing clothes, and even stretching out. Breakfast stood out with its unique ritual: we got to make our own Arashiyama tofu from scratch, which added a fun, hands-on touch to the morning.

The breakfast buffet is generous and delicious—fresh, well-prepared, and full of local flavors. While the in-room bathroom is compact, the shared onsen-style bathhouse more than makes up for it with its relaxing atmosphere and traditional feel. Just steps away from a riverside boat departure point, autumn here is breathtaking—golden leaves reflect on the water, creating a postcard-perfect view. Whether you're soaking in the communal bath, sipping tea by the river, or simply enjoying the quiet charm of Kyoto’s seasonal beauty, this stay feels truly special. A hidden gem with exceptional value and warmth.
Oyado Nishishichijo
Staying at Oyado Nishishichijo was a delightful surprise. While the facilities aren't overly luxurious, the attention to detail truly stood out—especially the thoughtfully placed toys for children in the room, which instantly made my little one feel at home. The location is perfect for exploring Kyoto; it's just a short subway ride from major attractions and surrounded by quiet, authentic Japanese charm.

Hostel Sui Kyoto
The welcome was warm and friendly. The capsule beds were stylish and well-insulated, making for a peaceful night's sleep. The kitchen is fully equipped—perfect for preparing your own meals. There are enough bathrooms, and they’re kept clean and tidy. One of the highlights? Bikes available for rent at an incredibly low price. While the hostel is located in northern Kyoto—quite far from the city center—the bus service is frequent and reliable. I explored almost everywhere by bike, which made getting around super convenient. That said, riding a bike in Kyoto requires some experience; traffic can be chaotic and unpredictable. Overall, this place offers great value, excellent comfort, and a relaxed vibe—ideal for budget-conscious travelers who want to explore independently.

If you're looking for a genuine, intimate stay in Kyoto, this is it. I’d come back in a heartbeat.
Hotel Ecclesia
We stayed here as a family of four—two adults and two middle schoolers. The room was surprisingly spacious, easily fitting two single beds and three floor mats with plenty of room to move around. Even the kids said they felt comfortable. Location-wise, it's super convenient—just a short walk from both the Nijo Station (JR) and the Nijo Station (Subway). If you're taking the subway, note that Exit 3 doesn’t have an elevator, so we’d recommend using Exit 2 if you’re carrying heavy luggage. Right next to Exit 3 is a small convenience store that has evening discounts—perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials. One thing to keep in mind: no toothbrushes are provided, so bring your own or pick one up at the nearby store (usually cheaper than hotel prices). Cleaning services are extra, but towels are replaced regularly and trash is taken out daily. Overall, the experience was excellent—great value for money, clean, well-located, and very family-friendly.
Sarangbang
Staying at Sarangbang was a highlight of my trip to Kyoto! The hotel is spotlessly clean, with a cozy and well-thought-out room layout that makes the most of the space. I loved how quiet and peaceful it felt, despite being just steps away from major attractions like Gion and Kiyomizu-dera. The location is unbeatable—walking distance to everything, plus there’s a convenience store and great local eateries right outside. For the price, this place offers incredible value. It’s clear they care about guest comfort and experience. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto.
Demizu Machiya Machiya Inn
Staying at Demizu Machiya was like stepping into a peaceful time capsule. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood of Kyoto, this traditional Japanese townhouse offers an authentic glimpse into old-world Japan. The moment you walk in, the wooden beams, shoji screens, and tatami mats transport you to another era. It's incredibly peaceful—just a short subway ride from downtown, yet feels worlds away from the city buzz. The room was clean, cozy, and beautifully furnished with thoughtful touches like local snacks and tea waiting for us. The staff were warm and helpful, offering great tips on nearby temples and hidden gems. For such a unique experience, the value is unbeatable.
