Rinn Shiki Juraku 4 stars

Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto

Located in Kyoto, 1.1 km from Nijo Castle and 1.7 km from the centre, Rinn Shiki Juraku provides air-conditioned accommodation with free WiFi, and a garden. This 4-star holiday home offers full-day security and luggage storage space. Guests can enjoy quiet street views. This is a great place to stay for when you want to have your own private quiet space (and a bit more space than a typical hotel room), but still want to be cared for by hotel-like staff. We landed on this place because I wanted to stay in a typical Ryokan, but my husband wanted his own bathroom. It was the best stay of our Japan trip out of 3 hotels that were all far above average. It feels very secluded and private, there are around 10 apartments in total and everyone has their own entrance. There's a coin washing machine as well. There is a small breakfast buffet with really great coffee and they provide some free snacks during the day as well I believe. All in all it feels really kind and caring.

Kyoisuke 4 stars

Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto

Kyoisuke offers accommodation within 700 metres of the centre of Kyoto, with free WiFi, and a kitchenette with a dishwasher, an oven and a microwave. There is a private entrance at the holiday home for the convenience of those who stay. Guests can enjoy garden views. Very quiet spot, traditional older style house but nice fit out with ofuro on rooftop and lots of nice touches with lovely tiles and crockery. Very cosy Japanese style. Mother-in-law aged 75 was happy for the upstairs toilet overnight so she didn’t have to negotiate the stairs as very steep and tricky. Comfy beds, very warm in middle of winter. Two toilets, 1 shower, two baths. Helpful host when we were late and ordered us taxis, gave good dinner recommendations etc. We found the place no problem bc we used a taxi, maybe hard to find from train station but recommend just phone host if you have trouble finding it. 700m to Nishiki market and Daimaru

Mulan Hostel 2 stars

Arashiyama, Kyoto

Open from May 2017, Mulan Hostel is situated in Arashiyama, a 2-minute walk from Arashiyama Station. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.

The property features a shared bathroom. Towels, slippers and free toiletries including toothbrushes are also provided. This is the best hostel experience that I had in Japan (I switched several hostels because of my long stay), then I realized the people who run the hostel are nice because they are Chinese people, not Japanese. I always had nice experiences with Chinese people everywhere I go. Unlike Japanese hosts who are super mean and cold to me, the staff at Mulan were very kind, accommodating and caring towards me. I can’t stress this enough because the day I stayed in Mulan was the only time that I could feel a human connection from people with a heart rather than cold hearted robotic Japanese people.
