PW L.
A luxury Ryokan villa feel, with a private onsen and bathtub, made this a wonderful homestay. It’s very bear Kyoto Station, a few bus stops from the main areas, and walkable to kawaramachi in about 20-25 minutes. With hotel prices in Kyoto surging, this felt like a more affordable option for a similar 4-star vibe. I booked through airb&b, then realized it’s also listed on hotel.com. There aren’t any konbinis nearby, so it’s worth bringing snacks or drinks back on your way home after a day out. Mogami San kept the villa well stocked with amenities, and all guests get a lovely little bamboo Japanese chopsticks set as a goodbye gift. Highly recommend!

It was especially nice to return to this well maintained place after sightseeing. The bath felt luxurious, and they left us complementary snacks and drinks, plus a cool pair of chopsticks as a thank you. The house is tucked into a quiet neighborhood with lovely shrines nearby. A few bars, restaurants, and bus and train stops are within reasonable walking distance. P.S. If you’re a foreign traveler curious about sleeping on a Japanese futon, my fiancée and I tried them here and found them very comfortable. I recommend giving them a go if you’re interested.

One of the best places we’ve rented. Lots of room to spread out and relax, and everything was very clean and organized.

The bath beside the central garden was so relaxing, and the amenities were excellent. It’s an amazing house in a great spot, right in the town center on a quiet side street. A bit pricey, but worth it.

We spent 5 days at The Besso Soso and will absolutely return next time we’re in Kyoto. It’s a beautiful place, and the staff were extremely pleasant. You’re close to everything, but it doesn’t feel like you’re caught up in the chaotic tourist scene.
