Cheap Hotels in Kyoto

This was such a lovely place to stay at! very clean and the staff was so sweet and helpful. The room was very beautifully decorated and clean (we stayed in the private room cabin).

Great place to stay overall. The hotel is easy to find and on the top floor of a high building which makes for a lovely view!

We booked with the Guest House Abiya for 3 nights, such a lovely cozy house!

Very nice cozy guesthouse.

I dont find ample words to describe this extraordinarily beautiful and scenic place of Ayabe… It is a must try for everyone whi is visiting Japan.

Satoyama guesthouse is the best thing that happened to us in our holiday across 3 regions. I could not stress enough that everyone SHOULD visit Ayabe and stay with Teruyuki san and his lovely family.

Beds are really comfy and spacious, nice black out curtains and clean. Small lock boxes at the entrance and they give you storage if you want to buy groceries.

Haven't been in hostels in a while as there not as common in japan as in other country traveled in.
Dormitory was great big bed usb plug and lights curtains on the bed side.

Absolutely loved our time here. 6 of us stayed here together (including kids ages: 2, 7, and 10). Would love to come back.
Ryokan felt traditional and had character yet remained very comfortable.

What a great way to experience living in a Kyoto. The house was lovely and well equipped, sleeping on the tatami mats was fun and comfortable.

Excellent accomodations within easy walking distance of Nijo Station. Do keep in mind that the Guest House is closed between noon and 5pm. The host, Tomi, is wonderful and very kind.

Tommy-san was very accommodating and always checked in to make sure everything is alright. Wish I could have stayed a few more nights but I’ll save that for another time.

The place is super close to alot of mainstream attractions. Easily walking or one train stop away from Kyoto main station.
The host is super knowledgeable on the Kyoto attractions and very helpful.

Really great place staff will accommodate your needs and are happy to chat. Rooms are good, showers are very warm cant really complain at all. Tv and computers in lobby aswell!

This place was great for a solo traveller! The room was great and a welcomed refuge after a long day of travel/sightseeing. The bed was comfortable, room was compact but doable. Bathroom was good.

The hotel was pretty decent, in my opinion. The room for one person wasn’t too cramped either.

I absolutely loved loved my stay here. Was super peaceful and I love that you get your own space. Also there's a bath which was a blessing after a lot of travelling.

Shizuya is a beautiful hotel, I loved the cosy atmosphere starting from the lobby.
I also want to recognize the amazing staff who is very professional and nice.

I love my four futon bed accommodation and I am alone! I love the smell of the new tatami mats. They must have newly renovated the room.
The bath is tight but we have a bath!.

As a tourist I had no expectations for the room. The hotel was easy to find and just a couple of minutes away from the bus stop.

Felt super homey—like staying at a friend’s old Kyoto house.
Traditional vibes with tatami rooms and sliding doors, very chill.
Common area was cozy, met a few other travelers over tea.

Best place in town.

This place is so amazing. Very traditional and very well maintained. It’s very traditional Japanese setting so maybe not to everyone’s liking, it is sleeping on the floor and very thin walls.

It's an exceptional find for a travellers looking to spend a few nights in a traditional house. Tani is lovely and very accommodating. She still lives on the ground floor.

We loved the stay, very 🏠 with authentic Japanese sense, it's a great experience. Besides, very convenient too, with kitchen, laundry and board games available, wonderful for family trip.

Great experience. Strategic location, near the station and various restaurants. Excellent service. Very cozy common room. They let you stay longer until 12 p. M. You can lent a bicycle as well.

Stayed Oct 2024. A cute guesthouse with traditional tatami/futon setup. The house is only 2 rooms with a common area and kitchen.

I stayed here almost a week and it felt really homely. There are only two rooms, I had room B. At the entrance of my room there was a fish tank and 2 tanuki statues to greet me when I got back "home".

Great cheap hostel with very friendly staff. The location can not be beat. Visited in the winter it was cozy and warm, small but comfortable.

Stay at this hundreds of years old house if you are in Kyoto. The Property Manager is one of the kindest people you'll meet in Japan.

For the price you can't go wrong. I stayed in female top bunks and they were comfy and spacious. They had Japan type two prong electric slot for charging.

A relatively inexpensive, basic, yet very comfortable, and well-located hostel for a short trip to Kyoto. Open 24/7, you can arrive late at night, as they leave your capsule key at the reception desk.

The room was VERY nice, it had a small kitchenette and a desk with a big bed, the room was spacious (for Japan) and very clean.

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.

If you want to try the traditional Japanese style, you should give this place a try. We really recommend this place. We love our stay here. Also don't forget to try their porridge for breakfast.

If you want to experience an old Ryokan, this is the best place for you. Love how it feels homy.
