Hostel holiday rentals in Shimogyo Ward

Excellent room, the kitchen is super clean and easy to use. The people are friendly and have great recommendations for things to do in the neighborhood. The showers, the room, and the neighborhood are all clean and welcoming. would come back for sure

This place is just perfect for a trip away from Kyoto! The hostel is so tidy and clean and comfy. We received an immediate message upon booking to confirm our plans with check-in details. The staff were very sweet, helpful, and friendly and this was an excellent location in a quieter part of the city – across the river and away from the crowds and perfect to still get to be in Arashiyama. The hostel is walkable to the onsen and provides a couple for a discount for entry!

Exactly what I was looking for!

Our group had a wonderful stay! Hosts were kind and location was great.

Mir hat das Hostel von Essam sehr gut gefallen, die Lage war optimal (Zug und Bus mit Fuß sehr gut zu erreichen). Auch ein gutes Ramen Restaurant sowie viele 7/11 sowie Family Marts waren in der Nähe. Zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten braucht man ein bisschen aber das ist mit den Bus und Zugverbindungen gut machbar. Duschen sowie Toiletten waren immer sauber. Gemeinschaftsräume sowie die Küche genauso. Personal war super freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ich konnte viele neue Leute kennenlernen und bin dafür auch sehr dankbar. Würd immer wieder herkommen! Danke nochmal!

This is a hostel but not like any hostel in USA. So clean, private, safe, and comfortable. Wang greeted us and made wonderful recommendations so we went to he Monkey Park (WOW) amazing views in their habitat and views, then Hot Springs and Bamboo forest all within walking distance. Ate and drank and local places recommended that we would never have found. Next day - took Uber to Golden Temple. Such a short stay but did so much. Thank you Mulan and Wang! Highly recommend.

Die (leider nur sehr kurze) Zeit bei Yusuke und Mariko war sehr, sehr schön! Wir haben uns direkt zuhause gefühlt, es hat gut gerochen und man merkt, dass sie viel Energie und Herz in das Haus gesteckt haben. Yusuke hat uns außerdem viele tolle Tipps für die Umgebung gegeben. Das Viertel ist gemütlich und deutlich angenehmer als die Stadtmitte. Fahrräder kann man ebenfalls leihen, was in Kyoto viel Spaß macht. Vielen Dank, wir kommen gerne wieder!

Buen lugar. Sí recomiendo.

Had a great stay here. Everything is clean and everything was as described. I will stay here again the next time I visit Kyoto. highly recommended!

非常干净的房子，住起来很舒服。自助入住社恐人士非常友好🥹位置也不错离京都站还是比较近的。

very responsive and helpful host, unique experience of a shared amenities space and the room given was clean with ample space to move about

I had a lovely time and it’s a great location - very quiet but close to everywhere you need to be. Walls are thin but wasn’t really an issue and the staff are so lovely!

Emiko et sa famille sont adorables, bienveillants, à l’écoute, plein de bons conseils et astuces. La chambre est bien agencée et tout confort. Ce fut un réel plaisir de résider chez eux.

Un environnement reposant, un accueil chaleureux, et une belle bâtisse en bois. Que demander de plus, il y’a un café au rez-de-chaussée qui après sa fermeture vous sert d’espace commun. Cela vaut la peine d’y rester 1 semaine ce lieu vous recharge réellement.

J'ai beaucoup aimé rester chez Gojo pour mon séjour à Kyoto. l'emplacement était très pratique & la chambre était très confortable. Le café et le personnel était super sympa.

京都駅から近く、非常に過ごしやすかったです。

寝室はもちろんキッチンやシャワー、トイレも大変清潔に保たれていました。共有スペースにコーヒー等あるのも落ち着けてうれしかったです。室内スリッパ、ドライヤーも完備され至れり尽くせり。ぜひまたお願いしたいです。

Since the location was quite far from my daughter’s dorm, I almost canceled my reservation. But the many great reviews made me curious, and it turns out staying here really is that comfortable — especially because of the extra space, which is quite generous and helps maintain privacy. Big thanks to the owner for being very responsive and explaining the hotel details clearly and in an easy-to-understand way, even though my Japanese skills are quite limited. Will definitely stay here again if I visit Kyoto in the future.

This hostel is beautiful - it is decorated in the traditional Japanese style with a little garden, tatami mats, and low tables. It’s close to public transportation and for the price it’s a great experience. The hostel is very clean and I really enjoyed hanging out in the communal spaces. I usually don’t spend much time in the hostels I stay at but this one had a really nice atmosphere & the other guests were great to chat with in the evenings.

滞在後の荷物の預けがフロントで保管いただくというよりは共用部に置いておくスタイルなので防犯上少しだけ気になりましたが基本的に清潔で柔軟に使えるいい宿と思いました。

Great place for solo travelers. The other guests were also very respectful. The location is also very peaceful for a nice evening stroll

遅い時間のセルフチェックインでしたが、案内がわかりやすくスムーズに入室できました。夜遅くに到着し朝早く出発したためスタッフの方とはお会いしませんでしたが、困ることは一切ありませんでした。それは、シンプルかつ的確な案内文と、使いやすく整った館内設備のおかげだと思います。細部にまで配慮が感じられ、素晴らしい経営だと感じました。 沢山の人が出入りするゲストハウスは靴や私物が散らかっている施設が多い中、こちらは整理整頓できる仕組みがしっかり整っていました。 個人に与えられた専用スリッパに履き替えるシステムも清潔感があり、とても好印象でした。さらに、近隣には朝早くから営業しているパン屋さんもあり、朝食にも困らず快適に過ごせました。 またぜひ利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

Really friendly host and comfy bed. Maybe bring earplugs though cause the beds make sound if you're below someone stirring around it's hard to sleep.Also some rude people banging on the stairs and playing their videos out loud but that's not the Airbnb fault. I just was too shy to tell them to be quiet haha

Shared room w 5 others, expect some noise for people moving about while asleep. Some people may enter and exit and may interrupt sleep. That said, it is an excellent place for sleeping in and resting throughout the day since they have a quiet bottom floor where people work and do things. Fridge is there too for you to keep some food. There is a *** water*** dispenser so you don't have to purchase water.
