Kyoto Uraraka Guest House

It was amazing stay. We travel alot and i really apprecied Mr. Yuji care and help about guests. He helped us with everything what we need to know, not only about room - but everything else too !! :) he speak really good english aswell - thank you mr. Yuji Room was really good too - big enough and clean so next time in Kyoto we definitly choose this guest house ! :)

the room is spacious, with clean sheet, towels and a comfortable bed; very useful to have a small fridge working even in a single room; the location is convenient, close to the Imperial Palace, maybe 15-20 minutes' walk from the nearest subway station, and just one minute's walk to the bus stop, expecially good for solo travellors to do a little bit exploring, then I find the big supermarket 10 minutes' walk away particularly endearing, with all kinds of food and drink to resupply; staff are friendly and polite, a very smooth checkin right before they close service at 8 pm at the counter;

Great value and friendly staff - lovely big room

Kuji was excellent. Enjoyed talking to him. Hopefully the younger members of staff can pick up on his English ability, should they be inclined. Had Kuji not been there we would have had little interaction with reception. Great origami skills too. Thanks for everything Kuji. Great to use the bikes around Kyoto. Best way to get around. A real bonus.

The place is very good and spacious for Japan. The staff at the hotel is very nice and they help you in anyway they can. The property is close to a lot of bus stations, so you can take the bus for a lot of the attractions (at the reception they give you a map with the buses, which are more easy to use for remote places than the metro). You have direct bus to Bamboo Forest and Kanku-ji Temple which is great!
