"This is the best hostel I've ever stayed in! It was really cheap, even during peak summer travel season! The bed was much more spacious than I expected; I could even organize my luggage right there. The second-floor common area has everything you need. It's super convenient for cooking and heating up food, and there are three refrigerators, making it easy to store your items. Seating for meals is also great, with high individual seats and large tables. There's also free luggage storage where you can lock your bags to a rack. They don't charge extra if you check out late. You can sit anywhere on the first floor. Even after the coffee shop closed at night, many people were still lounging and chatting there. I'm not sure if this hostel is Indian-owned or if there are Indian staff working here, but it felt like everyone was a foreigner, so we all looked out for each other. I felt really good here! If I ever stay in Kyoto for an extended period again, I'll definitely choose this place!"

Hotel near Kawaramachi,Kyoto
In order to ensure the utmost level of relaxation, the guestrooms feature an inviting design and are equipped with all basic necessities, creating a delightful stay experience.To ensure your satisfaction, certain rooms in the apartment come fitted with air conditioning for a more pleasant stay.

"This was our second time staying at this hotel, and we came back when we returned to Kyoto. During our two stays, we stayed in a few different types of rooms, and overall we had a very good experience. The private rooms were pleasant, clean, and comfortable. The rooms are not huge, and you should not expect an amazing city view, but everything was practical, well maintained, and easy to use. The location is very convenient, especially if you want to stay in a central tourist area. There are also two useful supermarkets nearby, as well as a FamilyMart very close to the hotel, which makes things even easier. Another thing we really liked was the shared area and kitchen on the 4th floor. We cooked spaghetti there one evening, and it was a really nice place to sit, eat, and talk with other travelers. Overall, it is a clean, comfortable, and convenient hotel with a nice atmosphere. We were happy to come back for a second stay."

"The location is close to Kyoto station which is convenient to travel to other places (Nara and Uji). But you need to walk through an alley to the hotel, where you barely see anyone walking together. So, female solo travellers pls take alert while coming back late. The cleanliness is satisfying. Free towel, free earbuds, free slippers are provided. You can refill your drinking water here. Washing machine charge 300 yen per 30 minutes. But the dryer charges 100yen per 10 minutes. But the cleanliness of the dryer is terrible. They never clean the dust inside the tray (which is important to have higher efficiency of drying). I have to clean it myself before i used it."

Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Bathrooms feature showers, bidets, and hair dryers.

"It's a 6-minute walk from Demachiyanagi Station, and there are convenience stores and supermarkets nearby, so it's a good location. There is a kitchen in the shared space on the second floor, which is very convenient for those who want to cook for themselves. There are also free drinks, manga, and books. The third floor is a dormitory space, and it is air-conditioned and clean, but in the case of mixed-gender accommodation, the upper bunk beds are not completely separated, so there is no privacy, which is a bit tough, especially for women. The lower bunk beds have curtains that can be closed, so I think they're fine... There are showers and toilets on both the second and third floors. It's good when it's not crowded, but if it's crowded, it may be a hassle to wait in line. There is a curfew, and you can't go out until 6:00 in the morning, so it may be a bit inconvenient for those who want to go out early in the morning."

Hotel near Kawaramachi,Kyoto
With a stay at Shijo Guesthouse HIVE - Hostel in Kyoto (Shimogyo Ward), you'll be a 4-minute walk from Shijo Street and 7 minutes by foot from Nishiki Market. This hotel is 0.6 mi (1 km) from Kawaramachi Street and 1.7 mi (2.8 km) from Kiyomizu Temple.

Featured amenities include laundry facilities, an elevator, and microwave in a common area. Make yourself at home in one of the 78 air-conditioned rooms featuring microwaves. Bathrooms have showers and hair dryers.

"Initially, I was a bit confused because the photos on the website looked different, but after a 3-night stay, my conclusion is that I'd probably stay here again if the price is the same. Pros: * Location. * Everything is on one floor, so there's no stress of moving between different areas. In other capsule hotels, the front desk, beds, showers, and lockers are often in separate rooms or on different floors, requiring you to constantly carry your key around. If you forget something, you end up making multiple trips, which is a real hassle. * The bed is long, stretching along one wall, and the opposite side is a solid wall with no other beds, making it less likely to encounter other guests when getting in and out. * Earplugs were provided. * The facilities were kept clean. Cons: * It felt older than it appeared in the website photos. * One side of the wall is used for large luggage storage, which gives it a somewhat cluttered impression (though this doesn't matter once you're in bed). * Two large, usable refrigerators are available."

But there are little noises at 6am ,someone will turn on the lights and package there luggage.it depends on the roommate quality. But I kindly suggest girls and boys floor should be separate .there are many boys don’t wear shirt after shower."

The Millennials Kyoto Capsule Hotel Great location and clean environment, with a really well-designed common area. Even though it's a capsule hotel, it offers good privacy and comfort. I had a great experience staying for several nights in a row, and I'd definitely consider coming back here on my next trip to Kyoto.

No matter how many times I visit Kyoto, I always highly recommend this capsule hotel. Staying in Kawaramachi is incredibly convenient; you can walk or take the Keihan train to many attractions. The facilities here are top-notch, truly one of the best capsule hotels. They offer a wide variety of free beverages, and a hot matcha every day is a must!

The hostel is located in the historic district, meaning you can stroll the picturesque streets in the morning before the crowds get too crowded. The hostel itself is very cozy. We rented a private room (it's larger than in the photo), but a shared room would have been just as nice. The window in the private room doesn't open, but there's air conditioning. There are two toilets, a European-style shower, and a bathroom. There's a washer and dryer (coin-type). The kitchen has everything you need, plus tea and coffee, and it's generally a pleasant place to hang out. The guests are pleasant, with many Japanese staying there. The hostess is wonderful, very hospitable. Thank her so much. She can recommend places to go and make you some mincemeat. If I ever go to Kyoto again, I'd stay here, not in a shared room. This was probably the nicest place I stayed on my entire trip.

Super worth it, we got it for only 2300php/night. I love this room since its huge compared to tother hotels, near bus station, front of a grocery store. Clean was beyond I expected. There was a mini kitchen where you could cook, a table good for 4 persons where you could eat, 2 super comfortable big single beds. The staff were so accommodating and helpful. We got a chance to check in as early as 30 mins before, since the room was already available. Comfort Room is super clean and gorgeous. All in all it was super worth it

This is my second time with this hotel. First the place was clean and the break room was very comfortable. I booked a room this time and it was not 100% separated from the others. You can still hear a sound of the people in the room next to you.

The place has an excelente location, easy to get there. The room was cleaned and organized. However, there is no person at the front desk to ask questions or ask for help. The code for entering to the room was sent by SMS, but since we were traveling the service for SMS of our phone company does not work outside our country, so we did not receive the message since we were traveling. They do not have an e-mail address, so the check in instructions could not be send there. When we arrived to the place was late and we found the front desk empty even though we still arrived in the front desk service hours. We had a hard time contacting the hotel but luckily could get some help in calling the administration to get our room number and the code.
