Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Kyoto

The home is very special and unique. We are a family of two adults, a 16yo and 8yo. We all loved the home traditional aspects of the home with modern appliances. Even though the home is nestled into a neighborhood, it is a short walk to the gorgeous river, a huge grocery store and a little further are bus stops and train stations. The bikes were such a gift and we enjoyed using them. Although we didn't use them, it was thoughtful to have rain jackets and umbrellas available. Hiroe met us promptly even after a time change with little notice. She was efficient and thorough in her directions. We felt grateful to stay in such a lovely and comfortable home.

I recently stayed at Saito’s place and had a wonderful experience! The check-in process was smooth and easy, and communication with the host was prompt and helpful throughout my stay. The place was thoughtfully furnished, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable visit. The location was perfect — close to one of the attraction, restaurants, and subway station, yet peaceful enough for a good night’s sleep. Overall, this stay exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting the area. Thank you again, Saito, for being such a great host. I would definitely love to stay here again in the future!

We had a fantastic stay at Hori’s house - place is amazing - very traditional style - the futons are very comfortable, felt very well every morning - kitchen is well equipped and there is huge collection of music cds. Kids have enjoyed the extra space and made their tv room, there are many toilets and bathrooms and location is short walk from Kyoto main station (15mins) or Gojo station(5mins) it’s a nice quiet street and we can highly recommend staying there!

Our family of 7 had a truly wonderful stay at Kimi’s place in Kyoto. The house was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a memorable trip. Kimi and his wife were incredibly kind and thoughtful. They even surprised us with gifts, which made our stay even more special. When we accidentally left an item behind, Kimi graciously arranged to have it delivered to us, showing such care and hospitality. Throughout our stay, communication was easy, warm, and helpful. We could really feel the heart they put into hosting, and we are so grateful for the experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Kyoto. Thank you again, Kimi and Marilyn!

非常满意的一次住宿，房东沟通友善，回复及时。 住宿:和照片描述一致，打扫得很干净，白天刚起床稍微有些冷。床很软睡得很舒服。设施也较为齐全。房东提供的帮助手册十分完善。 交通:步行至地铁口的时间不算很长，前往市内几个著名景点可能需要多转次线，但在可接受范围内。 周边:在一个居民区内，晚上十分安静，不长的步行距离即可到达711。同时体验了房东推荐的几家商户，体验都不错，值得尝试。

Very nice house. Clean and tidy.

La petite maison proposée par l’agence est située dans un quartier paisible et très typique des environs de Kyoto. Juste à l’arrière du château de Nijo, dont la visite fût une superbe découverte ! L’hôte des lieux a été plus qu’accueillante, chaleureuse et à notre écoute qu’importe la question et a fourni des instructions très claires pour vivre au mieux notre expérience, je recommande vivement!!

Our group of 8 stayed at this Air BnB during our three night stay in Kyoto. This place has two floors and the top and bottom floor are copies of each other. I really liked that each floor had their own washer/dryer, fridges and bathrooms. The area has a lot of good restaurants and it is fairly close to Nishkiki market along with other attractions. The Air BnB comes with a booklet of recommendations for restaurants and clear instructions on the home;

Conversation was easy) Apartment clean and nice) All notable places of Kyoto easy reachable (metro walking 5 minutes) - Nishiki market must visit!) arigato gozaimasu!

The place is clean and nice, the host is very responsive. The only comment is no curtain in window its bright

May's place is conveniently located near Nishiti Market and public transportation. She was incredibly responsive and went out of her way to assist when I got lost. May personally messaged me directions, met me outside, and warmly welcomed me at the front door. An excellent host—I highly recommend staying at her place.

Staying at Asami and Daniel's place was honestly the highlight of my whole trip. After being collected and escorted from the train station to the apartment, I was given bits of history about the neighbourhood and recommendations for food by Daniel. Upon arrival Asami greeted me and showed me how to use some of the more confusing amenities which was really helpful. I took them up on some of their suggested sightseeing and definitely wasn't disappointed, a stunning trek up Mt Kurama was my first pick. During my entire stay both were extremely kind and conscientious and shared so much knowledge with me, giving me a small peek into the lives of the locals. When leaving the city to head to Osaka, I was very kindly escorted back to the train station and send a message when I got home safely. Kyoto will definitely be the city I come back to on my next visit to Japan and staying with Asmai and Daniel again would be a treat!

It is such an accessible place from the center of Kyoto! The host is kind and the room is so clean.

Rundum perfekt - sehr zentrale Lage und trotzdem ruhig gelegen mit vielen Restaurants und Bars in der Umgebung - sehr gute Kommunikation mit Aika - das Zimmer ist etwas klein, hat aber alles was man braucht - das Bett war ein Traum! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und konnten uns sehr gut erholen Immer wieder gern! Danke!

7 min walk from the station. clean. small but was good for our needs. I recommend.

I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Kyoto. The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxing visit. The location was perfect—quiet and peaceful, yet conveniently close to public transportation, restaurants, and some of Kyoto’s most beautiful temples and shrines. The host was incredibly kind and responsive, offering helpful recommendations and making sure I felt at home throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Kyoto. It was a great base for exploring the city, and I’d definitely stay here again!

Fantastic location with plenty of amenities. The host was responsive to our contact and extremely helpful with local recommendations. The apartment was clean and tidy, and the elevator was a bonus as this doesn't seem common in Japan. They allowed us to leave our lugguge after check out while we explored Kyoto before departing the city. Overall this was a A+ experience and I would happily return.

A bit far from jr station ( 1 km ) but very near with bus station place very clean and comfy

A great place to stay in Kyoto on a nice quiet street but close to lots of nice restaurants and a short walk to the main shopping areas. The hosts were helpful and responsive, we would definitely stay here again!

位子在伏見稻荷站附近，距離兩個車站都非常方便，出門左轉就有便利商店，買食物非常便利 入住當天因為行李眾多，詢問是否可以提早借放行李，屋主完全沒有猶豫，甚至給我們提早入住，體驗十分溫馨 謝謝屋主的慷慨，非常推薦大家可以前往住宿

Great location and airbnb was clean and appeared as advertised. Plenty of space for 5 people. Hosts were extremely responsive and flexible.

This is such a perfect and cool place in Kyoto for a family of four. Great location for sightseeing and shopping. The windows have amazing views of the city and make for great people watching. The beds and futons are comfy. The 2 bathrooms are so convenient. The dryer dries well which is rare in Japan. The host responds quickly. We also enjoyed the Starbucks right downstairs and the hip rooftop bar above. Things to consider: It’s one big open space so you won’t get much privacy. And there’s only one large sink by the kitchen for both bathroom and kitchen use, which may be a bit awkward. But those were no problems for us. We LOVED our stay and would definitely stay again if we return to Kyoto.

Located in a quiet neighbourhood, right in the historic centre of Kyoto. Authentic feeling apartment with all the necessary facilities.

I was traveling with three teens. Everything was perfect. Lots of room. Loved the bathtub. Near a train station. The place is an authentic home. This is easy to reach for traveling and exploring but this is not into the middle of everything. It’s a bit away from central Kyoto. Bus is about 20minutes. We loved it
