Vacation rentals with a hot tub in Shimogyo Ward

great location, super quiet. could use more heating in the winter (bathroom & shower cold), but would totally stay again!

Our stay was flat out wonderful- a very responsive host with very clear directions, lots of nice extras and a beautiful space that was perfectly located for sightseeing in Kyoto with easy access to the train and subway. The large whirlpool tub is a welcome necessity after visiting arashiyama and other walking heavy tourist locations! The kitchen was well equipped with a grocery store within a 5m walk, perfect for cooking your own wagyu dinner like we did. I would highly recommend this stay in Kyoto!

Thank you for a great stay. Great place. Great location. Would recommend.

Very nice place (nice finishes, spotless, comfortable beds and floor mattresses) in an excellent location (quiet neighborhood 15mn walk from the touristic hot spots). Barely any common space which we used as an incentive to go explore the city :)

Very comfortable for 3 of us. It is within 15-25 mins walk to most attractions partly on narrow roads. Taxis can conveniently stop right outside the apt. The apt has easy-to-use amenities eg washer cum dryer, relaxing round bath tub, 2 toilets and 2 bathrooms, well-lit rooms on 2nd floor with comfortable floor mattresses. Little space downstairs if you have many big suitcases as stairways can be narrow to move them to second floor.

Very comfortable stay. Very very clean, quiet, easy access to train stations restaurants shops. Host answers all messages within minutes, and provides rides to-from station at check in and checkout. Good value. Highly recommended

Great location and easy check in process, the host was great in allowing us to store us luggage for a short bit before check in time.

Absolutely amazing stay! The place had everything you could possibly need—way more than you’d expect. Super well-equipped and thoughtfully prepared. The host was incredibly helpful, always quick to respond and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I honestly have zero complaints. Would 100% recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay. Definitely coming back if I’m in the area again!

Our stay at Yanbin’s place was great! We really felt at home, at a Japanese home! Place is great, location was awesome! Away from the tourists but still super close to any action Kyoto offers! Yanbin was super friendly, always willing to help and put up with all my questions! Honestly a great place, plenty of room, comfortable and great location! Our kids were very careful around the house, but with so much space it was really great! Everyone had its own corner in the house to enjoy their reading, playing a game, reading a book or sipping a coffee/tea/sake! Highly recommended without a doubt! Thank you Yanbin, see you next time!

Lovely time at Kyoto House! A really fun space, mix of classic Japanese and western style. The doorways are a little low if you’re tall but really no complaints. Would stay again!

This pearl of a house is in a quiet neighborhood close to supermarkets and restaurants outside the more vibrant areas. With loads of bus stops and an important subway-station nearby it made Kyoto sightseeing a walk in the park. This lovely ryokan felt like a home, with all facilities you might need. Takeshi is super friendly and his helpfulness with tips and suggestions made our stay 5 stars! Highly recommended!

This is one of the absolute best air bnbs I’ve ever stayed in. I can’t recommend this place enough! Beautiful home that is an unforgettable experience. I will definitely stay here again if I visit Kyoto and would recommend to friends and family. This is a stay you will remember forever!!

Very nice place with clean and hot tub including place! Drinks, gifts, and quick communications are great to feel welcome at place.

As a group of 6 adults, we stayed in this beautiful, clean home in April 2025. Everyone was impressed with how high end and comfortable everything was. Even better than the pictures! Appliances were high end and there were wonderful small details such as fresh flowers. I recommend making toast in the Balmuda toaster (add a spoonful of water in the receptacle to first steam the bread). The kitchen has everything you could want. Located a 5 minute walk from the KH line with easy access to Nishiki Market, Gion, Fushimi Inari, and Kyoto station. We were sad to leave. Not a cheap accomodation but worth the money and would consider again if travelling with a group!

Great host! Super helpful. He came very quickly to help us when the front door lock broke and was very understanding. The house had everything listed and the beds were very comfortable.

This home is beautiful. It’s been recently renovated and it looked, felt and smelled new. The decoration and furnishings were really lovely. It’s in a quiet residential area about 20 minutes from the main shopping and sightseeing area, 10-15 minute walk to station and 3 stops to Kawaramachi markets. It comfortably fits 7 people in 3 different bedrooms, each with their own bathrooms. Appliances and tableware were all high end. It doesn’t have closets in the bedrooms, just a couple of hangers, which seems to be common in Japan hotels. Shogo, our host, was very friendly, super communicative and helpful. Also very generous with his hospitality. This place is not in the middle of the busy sightseeing areas, but it’s relatively central and easy to get to places with public transport. There are also some shops and restaurants in walking distance. Overall, we had a wonderful stay! Very cozy and spacious, and equipped with everything we needed.
