Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Sakyo Ward

We had a party of four who stayed for a full week. It was amazing. Location was perfect and quiet and it was centrally located to both Kyoto and Osaka

Very beautiful home. Extremely comfortable. Very close to train station, made transportation very easy. It was very quiet surroundings.

The hosts were super welcoming, accommodating and responsive to all of our needs and concerns. My friends and I really enjoyed our stay and the location was very convenient especially for our first time.

This is a really cute and quiet area. Much needed for all the hectic travel days. Saki helped accommodate us and was very responsive when trying to figure out addresses when forwarding the luggage from our previous location. This is a must checkout spot!

Thanks for a wonderful stay! We absolutely loved this house. It was perfect for our family of 6, very comfortable, spacious and well stocked with everything we could need. The futon beds were extremely comfortable and lots of wardrobe space. The location was very near to a bus stop with a fantastic Nepalese restaurant nearby. A short bus ride to the station and only 20 minutes into the centre. Jasmin was extremely helpful and responsive with any questions. We would highly recommend this property.

Cosy and big place for a party of 6! The host was extremely friendly and served us food from the Chinese restaurant next door (operated by their family). They even had maps of the nearby area and explained to us how to navigate the region for the best experiences! We were allowed to use the kitchen and fireplace freely as well. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy and clean house! The neighborhood is quiet and decent, making it a great option if you're driving and exploring in Kyoto. The host was very helpful—they speak excellent English and Chinese, which made the check-in process smooth and easy. The house itself is spacious, with two floors, three bedrooms, and one bathroom. It was perfect for us, and we appreciated the peaceful surroundings.

The place is excellent. It's in a lovely neighborhood with lots of places to go, good restaurants, and shops around. The look and feel made the trip feel special. I highly recommend it.

Ken was an absolutely fantastic host — from the moment we booked, he provided super detailed instructions and was incredibly responsive to any questions we had, both before and during our stay. His communication made everything so easy and stress-free. The apartment itself is in an unbeatable location, right in the middle of a lively tourist area with tons of great food, drinks, and convenient transportation options just steps away. It was the perfect home base for exploring Kyoto. Staying at Ken’s place gave us a real feel for modern Japanese apartment living — a unique and authentic experience that we really appreciated. If you’re looking to experience what it’s like to live like a local in Japan, this is a great choice. That said, if you’re looking for a 5-star hotel or a traditional ryokan, this may not be the right fit — but for us, it was exactly what we were hoping for. Highly recommend staying here — and huge thanks to Ken for being such a thoughtful and helpful host!

A beautiful, cozy apartment in the heart of Gion district Kyoto. Location is excellent. We enjoyed seeing geishas and meikos regularly on evening walks just outside the apartment. It was close to hiking trails, many sightseeing destinations, trains, restaurants, etc. In the heart of everything. And yet super quiet, being on 4th floor with no neighbors (above or on sides) in an alley. Only downside is that the kitchen is very efficient, single burner, no counter space, etc. But you should be mostly eating out anyway. Also there is a red light at night in the main room from the fire alarm—we had to cover it with a jacket to sleep. Not sure what other reviewers thought was deceptive—it was as I expected, and honestly the view is phenomenal. Yes there is a parking lot but you can hardly see it and beyond that are the beautiful Kyoto hills and tops of temples peaking out. Tatami room was wonderfully cozy. Furniture and linens were quality. Stayed super warm inside. We miss it already!!

Everything was fine. They were clear and responsive when you needed it. The place was nice and peaceful—a good location between the two main stations.

Fantastic experience start to finish. The location and unit are exactly as advertised. Right in the heart of the city, but still remarkably peaceful. The patio overlooking the river is worth the price of admission on its own. Ken is the most responsive, and friendly host I've ever interacted with. He went out of his way to make my stay easy and convenient. Extremely flexible check-in and check-out. 10/10, can't say enough good things.

Depending on your style of travel, Kyoto can be an overwhelming place. Seibido Inn felt like a safe house away from the touristy madness, yet still close enough to access the major destinations easily. Some of my favorite parts of my stay were the quiet walks home.

A lovely authentic Japanese home. Well designed with all of the essentials. A nice quiet neighborhood close to amenities and the city center.

This time, I went to Kansai with my friends, stayed at Xiaodai's house for three nights, it was really great, the elegant Japanese tatami villa, the interior is also beautiful, the living inside is very comfortable, the villa is located in the rich part of Kyoto, the environment is very good, although it is not in the center of the city, the amenities are very good, the subway and convenience stores are within a very short walk.And then, Sister Dai is really super nice!Very enthusiastic. He answered all kinds of questions on WeChat before checking in. He drove to Kyoto to pick us up at Yamashina Station on the day of arriving, and then gave us a detailed introduction of how to play in Kyoto. How to take a car, let us contact her on WeChat at any time when we encounter problems. The last night also took out a treasure of wine. It made me feel like a host, but a good friend who has been hosting me in Japan for many years.

It was a nice, almost four storey apartment. The place is 20 mins away from the station. But it was a nice walk from the station if the weather is good. The view from the place is great. You can see the lake and the mountain. We love the nature the most.

The building, garden, facilities, etc., all showed the owner's elegant and lovely personality, and it was a very beautiful place to stay. The explanation and support were very polite and helpful. The BBQ and fire in the garden, which was like a painting with the scent of Japanese cedar, were exceptional and fun. The breakfast provided was also very delicious, and everyone had a very satisfying trip from start to finish. I'd love to visit again if I get the chance.

this is a most amazing place we have ever stayed with air bnb, kitchen is equipped with all necessary cooking stuff and even various seasoning, bedrooms are superb.... Children have plenty of space inside the building and backyard for running, the space is more than enough for our 12 people group. ......... Perfect.......
