Cheap Hotels in Kyoto

Amazing location on a central street in Sanjo, within walking distance of all the main shopping areas and with easy access to sightseeing spots and other cities.

Had a lovely stay here — The location is ideal as it is on the main road in central Kyoto as well as close to the river, however not noisy at all.

It was my first time staying in a hostel, and I feel so lucky that I found this one in Kyoto. The location is perfect — super convenient to get anywhere, with lots of great food and shops nearby.

Easily the best hotel/hostel experience I had in Japan — by a wide margin.
From the moment I checked in, the Tsukimi team made me feel completely at home.

This is a hotel that truly makes you feel comfortable and eager to return.
The service quality is outstanding.

I had a very pleasant stay so I’m giving it 5 stars. Very close to the train station and 3 convenience stores. At scheduled times, they would provide free udon and alcoholic beverages.

The hotel is really nice & clean. It is in a very calm neighborhood and a bit further away from any public transportation.

This hotel is excellent across the board. The facilities are clean, spacious, and comfortable, its location is unbeatable, and the staff's service and attention are outstanding.

Perfect location 25/20mn walking from downtown and numbers of sights. Very kind and helpful staff. Good atmosphere in the shared space.

If you want the Japanese-type room experience, book here. Caution for those with lots of bags or huge luggages, they don't have an elevator, so you'll have to carry it yourself.

We had a great stay at this hotel. We lived there for a week. I decided to put review because many negative ones. It was tidy and very cozy.

Great location in the City. Rooms are small, to use two suitcases we moved the furniture around :) Very good facilities and helpfull staff!

Next time I visit Kyoto, I won't need to research hotels. I'll be staying at Guesthouse Soi, no question.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I almost skipped out to book a hotel since I wanted something nicer than hostels but this is far from a traditional hostel. It feels like HOME.

Pros:
Great location!
Nice tidy little room.
Was cheap.
Cons:
Very hard pillows and bed.
Poor sound isolation, so you can hear everything on the streat.

My rating is high as the rooms are clean.
Self check in.
Good coffee shop around corner.
Lawson across Rd.
Near bus stop to go to attractions.

Amazing staff, super helpful and accommodating.

Lovely hotel on the mountain great host delicious local japanese dinner and breakfast!

We had a wonderful stay in this ryokan. The lady there was very nice and helpful. I recommend this ryokan to rest after a long trip in busy japanese cities. The food was also amazing!

It was my first experience in a capsule room in Japan but everything was great. The room is always clean even the shared accommodation.

Really solid capsule hotel. The capsules are quite nice, very comfortable and have everything you need. Locker is a decent size, bigger than some other capsule hotels.

100% recommendation.

My first time in Kyoto and this Ryokan was perfect — The host was exceptionally helpful and recommended many good places to eat in the area — I would love to stay here again when I come back to Kyoto.

Amazing service 10/10 Very good connection with he rest of the city. Very clean room. Amazing value for the money. We stayed there for 4 days, if I ever return to Kyoto, I am staying there again.

I paid for a bunk bed but they gave me a full room. It was really nice.
The free bicycles are a very good way of traveling through Kyoto. I recommend this place. The staff were nice.

We stayed in Kyoto for a week and I’m so glad we chose Roku Roku as our base. Every single day it felt like coming back home, the room was quite big and really comfortable!

I love staying here in Unknown Kyoto.

My 4-n stay (¥11, 800) at UNKNOWN's dormitory was fantastic. The ambience of the repurposed old house was really nice. The futon was comfortable and the privacy curtains made it easy to sleep well.

I like this hotel. The beds in Japan are really firm basically like a floor. Sun Royal has a decent bed and like most of the hotels in Japan the restroom is great and the toilets are awesome.

An amazing experience. The host is fantastic. Unfortunately, 5 stars is the maximum available notation but the place definitely deserves more.

Toni is an incredible host with excellent recommendations for the surrounding city of Kyoto. Kokonoe Machiya is a very beautifully restored Ryokan with gorgeous attention to detail.

After travelling through more than 34 European countries and staying in numerous hostels, this one stands out as by far the best.

This is a hidden gem. The rooms are very comfortable, and being able to have a solo room for this price is a superb value luxury.

Excellent experience all round. Rooms were exactly as described. Fully air con'd. The host was veri friendly and helpful. Is there every morning and has a comprehensive check-in/out video guide.

Great location in the historic part of Kyoto. We stayed in a traditional ryokan-style accommodation and were lucky to get a room with a view of Kyoto Tower.

Amazing place and service, very nice women helping you with the sukiyaki, lamb sukiyaki was amazing, very tasty and tender. Chicken curry and the japanese beef steak box were very tasty too.

We got the lamb for 2 lunch special, which comes for miso soup and white for both people. So good! It was a great meal.

Before coming to Japan, we thought the room here would be very small based on the photos.

Super cute hotel! I loved the designs of everything. I thought the room was going to be dark all day, but there is a huge window that allows lots of natural light in the morning.

I stayed here during my trip in Kyoto, I would definitely come back again! This place is really recommended!

I had a truly wonderful stay! The hospitality of the hosts was exceptional — warm, kind, and always willing to help. They made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived.

Loved the mini store near the entrance!
