About this property

Kyoto Next to Toji temple relaxing house


This is a comfortable facility that reopened after renovation located right next to the World Heritage Site of Toji guesthouse. From the Kyoto Station, it takes 5 minutes by bus plus 3 minutes by foot, or 2 minutes by Kintetsu railway plus 10 minutes by foot. If you only travel by foot from the Kyoto Station, it takes about 18 minutes. We offer free pickup service by car from the Kyoto Station. You can enjoy a comfortable stay because the neighborhood is quiet. Up to a maximum of 10 persons can stay, including 2 single beds and 8 sets of bedding. Since you borrow the whole house, you can use it comfortably as a family or a group. There are two toilets, a big kitchen and a dining space. We provide shampoo, conditioner, boy shampoo, bath towel, face towel, hair dryer and toothbrush. Also, we offer water, drip coffee and green tea. Within the walking distance, there is the famous railway museum that showcases steam locomotives and trains and an aquarium. The Umekoji Park nearby is perfect for taking a stroll or jogging course. You can park one vehicle in the temporary parking lot (free of charge). However, only a vehicle of less than 4,500 mm in total length can be parked (consultation is required).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Fantastic host and great location

Takashi was a fantastic host. He was very generous with transportation to and from the train station and helpful with local activities. The house was spacious and quite enjoyable for relaxation, sleep, and cooking. It was in a great location to get to many of the sites by bus, train, or walking.

KINDEST HOST WITH A SUPER HOME

The house is perfect, plenty of room, kitchen was well stocked, love the heated floors, however, the host is what takes the cake. Picked us and dropped us off at the bus station and then continued to help us with the rest of our trip. Best stay on our entire trip.

Small getaway in Kyoto

Amazing stay in Kyoto, out of the hustle and bustle of downtown Kyoto yet close enough to get to Kyoto station via bus. It was also quite close to Toji Temple which allowed us to view it alone in the closing hours. It is hard to get a taxi, but if you're okay with public transporation then this is a great spot. Takashi is a great host and was more than helpful. He gave us a ride to and from Kyoto Station.

Kyoto Temp Home

My family and I were so impressed about the cleanliness of this property. We had access to all amenities and every instruction had English translation. The location is very convenient as it is a walking distance from the train station, grocery stores, combini and restaurants. The owner was very nice. We had a good experience during our stay and wished to stay again in this property when we come back to Kyoto.

Wonderful rental in Kyoto!

We had a very comfortable stay in this home in Kyoto. This rental was located near the beautiful Toji Temple, a few restaurants and convenience stores and a little longer walk to the Kyoto station, department stores, etc. It was comfortable for our family of four, very clean and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host picked us up from the train station and dropped us back off there after the stay which was great since we had a lot of luggage and space in the taxis can be limited. He also provided a helpful walk through of the rental that provided us with information we needed about the home.

A great place in Kyoto

This property was the nicest place we rented in Japan. The kitchen was lovely and stocked with useful supplies. The beds were very comfortable. The AC worked great and helped us stay cool even during the heat wave. The bathroom was stocked with plentiful amounts of towels and toiletries. The host Takashi, was amazing and helpful. He helped us get from the train station to the rental and then took us back to the train station. I have never experienced that kind of service through a VRBO rental. The house was located 2 blocks from the most beautiful temple grounds called Toji Temple. We walked past that every day and stopped to visit the shrines and pagoda. My teenage boys loved sleeping on the futons and tatami mats in the second bedroom. It really felt like we experienced what it might be like to live in a nice neighborhood in Kyoto. We took the bus frequently because the train station was a little bit far. We all loved it, would highly recommend to a family or 2 couples.

Fabulous week in Kyoto

We loved staying in this house in Kyoto. The owner is very kind and attentive and responded quickly to any questions we had. He even picked us up from the train station! The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. It is in a quiet neighborhood of Kyoto, about 15-20 minutes walk from the main train station. Good location for our family (maybe not the best location if you are looking to party at night). There are bus stops about 3-5 minutes walk from the house. Bus service works really well. We had a wonderful stay at this house.

Perfect Japanese Home Away from Home

This house's location, a 20-min. walk from Kyoto station is perfect meaning close to the action yet once at home it is very relaxing. Completely renovated, 2 stories, decorated with taste, it offers all the comfort needed.The kitchen is well equiped including a table with chairs. Otherwise, there are tatamis/cushions. There are 2 single western beds located on the 2nd floor or many futons. I appreciated being able to use the washer too. Takashi dots upon his guests, ensuring we have everything needed, making us feel more than welcome. Again "MERCI" Takashi!

Great hospitality(Premier Host)

This is the first time I booked ab&b in Japan. The host Mr Takashi was very courteous and nice. He offered to pick us up and dropped us off to Kyoto station. The house is very clean and well prepared with towels and all needed to stay in his house. The only negative thing that I must say was that we have to leave all out stuff in our suitcase up in front by the front door. It is a bit inconvenient. I would recommend this house to everyone specially with kids since the other bedroom was right next to the master bedroom.

Kyoto rental near Toji temple

We have been doing Vrbo rentals for over 15 years and have never come across service like we did here. As a smaller group, we were picked up and dropped off at the train station (Who does that?!). The house was very clean, tidy and well organized. There were descriptive labels and instructions throughout the house which made navigating our time at Kimi house very simple. He will take you through and explain fine details at drop off. The house was supplied with mostly everything required during a stay, even coffee, tea and cookies! Supermarkets and bus stations are within walking distances. The communication and instruction beforehand was perfect when unclear on routes. Any questions asked were quickly answered. Thank you to Takeshi again for your kindness and support. - Jody and family

清潔感に溢れていて過ごしやすい家

清潔で布団も寝心地がよくリラックス出来る物件でした。 車通りもほぼなく静かなエリアでした。 徒歩圏内に東寺、イオンモール、京都駅があり便利です。イオンや京都駅まで約20分ほどで、小さい子供が居たらちょっと厳しいかもです。ですが、私の４歳児は文句言いながら歩けました。苦笑

New (or recently refurbished) two floor detached property, very clean, adequately equipped kitchen, floor heating throughout (even under the tatami mats). Have it a four star for location as we had a car and car parking was just a few steps down the road, but little off the main sites. Great host who responded promptly on inquiries, gave us good recommendations and advice. Thoroughly pleasant experience!
