Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Kyoto

Shogo was an amazing host!! His home was clean and he had so many great directions in english for me and the other guests. I would highly recommend this to anyone staying in Kyoto! I know we will be back :)

Seiko’s place feels like a home. It’s pretty and quirky and cozy enough that every afternoon during our 5 night stay, my husband and I, along with our two teens, would head back to the apartment to put our feet up for an hour or so before heading back out. The shower has great pressure and plenty of hot water. The air conditioner works well and we were happy to have it for a summer visit in Kyoto. The location is great for getting around but also quiet. Things to note are that the bedrooms get bright in the morning and that the traditional beds may be uncomfortable if you like a soft bed.

I have no words to describe how good our experience was at this apartment. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The room was spacious and clean. I felt like it fully encompassed the Japanese living experience. Mikiko was kind and friendly, always answering our questions and giving us recommendations for things that we wanted to do. Thank you so much! We will be back :).

A beautiful, authentic Japanese home. This was such a cool experience to stay in a house like this while in Japan. Beautiful garden, and a very large shower room, it felt like a spa! The host let us drop our luggage off before check in which was super helpful. Only minor inconvenience is that the main bedroom did not fully cool down, so it stayed warm in there. Overall, completely recommend and if we come back to Kyoto we will stay again!

It was a great experience. Thank you

The place was beautiful with a traditional Japanese style, and the experience of sleeping on the futon was wonderful. The accommodation overlooks a small stream that separates it from the river by just a street, about 50 meters away. The surrounding area is lovely, with plenty of activities and good restaurants. I really enjoyed the stay, and the front desk lady was extremely kind and helpful. I wish I knew her name so I could mention it here. Thank you for this beautiful experience 🙏🏻

Great location. Close to public transportation. So many attractions within walking distance. Very comfortable space you stay. Lovely. I would recommend staying here. I didn’t read carefully the messages from the host and I neglected to leave 2400 yen in cash as a local tax on departure. The host communicated clearly and politely on what I missed, and upon re-reading it should have been clear to me. This is a small fee, and I was able to correct this and pay through Airbnb. My apologies to this generous host. Stay here in your next trip to Kyoto.

We had a great five-night stay as a family of three. The apartment was exactly as described and fit us well — it felt a bit tight by the end, but that was mostly due to the shopping bags piling up! The location is very convenient, just a short walk from Kyoto Station. While we didn’t use it, the small kitchenette looked well-equipped for basic meals. What really stood out was our host, Mr. Yoneda. He was incredibly kind and responsive, even meeting us on the street late at night to make sure we found the place without trouble. He gave us a thorough tour of the apartment and even had a sweet surprise for our daughter. If you’re looking for a ryokan-style stay in Kyoto that’s affordable, comfortable, and comes with a fantastic host — this is a great choice.

Our stay here was absolutely perfect! The apartment was impeccably clean and cozy, well stocked and we loved the amenities they provided. The hosts were also very clear in the directions and responsive, thank you!

We had a good stay. Mineral noise since it was in a residential area. Walkable to public transit and Nishiki Market. AC was very good. Washer and dryer worked well for small loads.

Everything was perfect!! Clean, confortable , room was big, kind people!! 10/10

Very strategic location, near of stores and restaurants. Clean apartment and easy to find ! Great value for money

Great stay in a convenient part of Kyoto! Apartment was clean and spacious. Thank you!

Perfect place and location!

Fantastic and enjoyable stay! Love it!

This was the best accommodation during our Japan travel. The place was so spacious compared to the other places we stayed at in Japan, and even the bathroom which I found very small in general around Japan was very big here. Especially loved the outdoor bath!! A baby cot and bath tub were provided and our baby slept beautifully during the stay. Our futons were comfortable too.

Accommodation in a good location, clean and easy to access. Great for a stay in Kyoto. Very helpful host, thank you!

The Kyoto apartment was well positioned, close to several bus lines and only about a five minute walk from the river and many restaurants and bars. The washing machine was appreciated and it felt more down to earth to get the experience of a proper apartment while on our travels. The hosts were very communicative and made us feel well hosted.

The host is the most amazing and kind hosts I have been across in my 9 years of being with Airbnb. He picked us up from the station since we had large bags and a baby stroller. We had a good time at his cafe where he hosted breakfast for, he also had fruits ready for us when we arrived. The location is also simply perfect in terms of connectivity to public transport, restaurants and supermarkets. We hope we can stay here whenever we visit Japan again.

We had a great time at this apartment! This was the perfect place to stay in Kyoto. there is a ton to do in the immediate area around the neighborhood and May was an amazing host!

Beautiful city, the air bnb is in a perfect area loved the surrounding and where it was located. Place was clean and modern.

Super well located and efficient. Hosts are extremely kind and helpful. Wonderful choice for your Kyoto stay! Will be staying here when we come back next year.

The location is great. The house is clean and the common area is very nice.

Great location and place. Very accommodating and responsive. Thank you.
