Great place to stay, in Kyoto, is a bit of a walk from the nearest bus and not close to many train lines, so your stuck taking the overly packed 206 bus. The place was nice, lots of space luggage. Laundry situation was good, however there wasn’t any laundry soap, or hand soap. Dishes could be purchased I believe through the hotel. All in all I’d recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in Kyoto.

It was a good value for the price and in a good location. However, if you are not able to go up the historic steps or have trouble carrying your bag, it may not be an ideal location to stay in. There are no elevator as well. The AC unit also smelled bad in room 2001. Overall, fine stay, cheap price, so you get what you pay for.

simple, spacious, good value but not enough clean

This is more a residence than a hotel. The room had space and we appreciated it. But the room and the bathroom were not clean, full of dust. The corridors are also very dirty and do not give a good impression of cleaness. The location of the hotel is okay during the day but at night it is very far from any place open for eating

Our only concern was check in. We arrived before the requested time but found no one there. We discovered that we were at another property with a similar name. The next day we saw another couple with the same thing. So signage could be improved. Otherwise it's a great location and quiet night.

Amazing location...once we found it!

Relatively basic self-contained apartment but had everything we needed, including a small kitchen and washer / dryer. Located perfectly in the old town in Kyoto which was amazing for our stay, and roughly a 30 minute walk to a subway station.

Great value apartment

Perfect base for seeing Kyoto. It's in an exceptionally busy part of Kyoto however it's off the main Street and amazes us how quiet it was considering its location. Our mini apartment had a bathroom, kitchen facilities and washer and dryer. It was spacious. It's great it you're looking for something basic to rest in. Friendly staff and easy self check in and out. It's no hassle to find either. Just use Google maps.

Clean and quiet in a touristic location

Excellent place to stay. Pros: - The room was really clean. No weird smell. - There was a washing machine in the room (no dryer, but you can turn the bathroom into a drying place by turing the heater on), - The guesthouse is in a wonderful place in Kyoto. My family enjoyed our evening walks. - It was surprising quiet during the night. We did not hear the people above or beside us. - You can borrow umbrellas (and bikes I think). - I loved the shampoo there. And the small tv in front of the bathtub. Cons: Nothing. For the price, you can't ask for more. Note that this is not a hotel, so don't expect someone to clean your room.

May 2018 Stay to Explore Kyoto

My stay at Kiyomizu Sannenzaka Guest House was fantastic. The rooms are exactly as they appeared in the pictures and each room is basically a mini-apartment, with its own range, mini-fridge, microwave, and clothes washing machine. The shower room has a drying function that dries your clothes in no time. The beds were comfy, the A/C worked very well, and the service I received was always very friendly. The check-in and check-out processes were very easy and the front desk even allowed us to check-in an hour early with no additional cost. If your room is not ready, however, they will happily hold your luggage for you in the lobby until check-in time. There are laundry detergents and various other items available for purchase at the front desk at very reasonable prices and a vending machine in front of the building with coffees, sodas, water, and teas. The location is not ideal for traveling around Kyoto or to other cities like Osaka, as the Hotel is up a steep hill and is about a 5 minute walk from the nearest bus station and a ~15 minute walk to the nearest subway station. That being said, if your focus is on exploring Kyoto, this guest house is located right in the middle of a historic district and its very pleasing to walk out of this hotel each morning and be greeted by throngs of people exploring the beautiful stone streets lined by wooden architecture. Overall, I highly recommend this guest house for long or short-term stays in the Kyoto area.

A nice, reasonably priced place...will stay again.

The Inn family owned and located a wonderful 20 minute walk from Kiyomizu Temple. It is Japanese arpartment style, utilitarian and spare. I rented the dbl plus to twin bed unit - spacious for sleeping but just a couple of chairs at a small table (you won’t eat in the room in Japan). Please note to have the phone number and address handy for your taxi driver...this place is located in a very dense area and up a hill. Be ready to walk!!! Recommended!

Great locatiion, village setting

Great location that accommodated late checkin. Modern amenties. Comfortable, quiet, walkable to village and many area shrines. Helpful staff. One problem: utensils/dishes were only available for renting during the very restricted office hours and therefore not available when needed on the top evening of and following morning of our arrival. No English tv. Wi-fi good for email and also for internet searches.

Good enough

When we booked this place we knew that this would be the smallest place we would be staying at during the entirety of our trip. It’s a small three story guesthouse with apartments really close to the Kiyomizu Dera temple. When I say really close, I mean a five minute walk. Really really close. On the other side it was also only a 15 minute walk to the heart of Kyoto’s geisha district; Gion. In our case we didn’t so much care about amenities as much as we did location so it worked out perfectly for us. The room was small, yes. But there was plenty of storage space with a closet, an extra hanging rack and because of the twin sized bed also just enough room for both of our suitcases. The room was apartment style, which means there’s a small kitchenette. I will say though, that the bathroom was a little too small. The shower was good enough, but the actual WC (toilet) was so close to the door that our knees would touch the door when sitting down. Now in all fairness my husband and myself both measure over 5.8, but this is something to keep in mind when looking at this place. Kyoto is pretty expensive and in comparison to the other hotels we stayed at in Tokyo and Matsuyama this was way more expensive and nowhere near the high quality standards we are normally used to... But that being said, the location truly is amazing and very convenient and it is after all just a place to lay your head down after a nice long day of sightseeing in an amazing city.

A great little place

We stayed three nights. Everything was terrific, however, on the down side, the beds were saggy and the pillows too high for us. That was the only complaint as the room and it’s facilities were otherwise very good. Cutlery and cooking utensils can be hired, and there was a washing machine. A drying system for wet clothes was in the bathroom and it worked well. 6 speed bikes were available for hire as well. A great little place
