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.

Can't beat the location if you want to visit Mt. Inari before or after the crowds. Since the grounds are open 24 hours, you can walk over anytime, day or night. And although the shops and shrine facilities are only staffed from about 9am to 6pm, you are free to walk the torii gates anytime, and it's absolutely surreal after dark. Also right next to a nice bridge over a picturesque river, and very close to a 7-11. Inside, the place is very nice, and certainly would stay there again.

Great host and wonderful location. On arrival we met the cleaner to drop our bags who was exceptionally helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Check in was seamless and the host was communicative and responsive to any questions!

A two storey cozy house in a quiet neighbourhood. 5 mins walk to the closest train station and 3 mins walk to bus stop. The host is very responsive and helpful especially about how to get to kyoto from osaka, because it help us save money and worries , as a first timer to japan. Very clear explanation as we were travelling in seven ppl including two little children. Typical japanese home , with tatami setup bed . ( there are also two spring bed)but we all sleep in tatami style. love the stairs , but for us carrying a big heavy luggages to the upstairs , need lots energy. Because it is quite small the aisle. We would love to come back again .

I drove here from karuizawa, he allowed us to check in late,very comfortable with my two kids, we also can cook happily,because as muslim it’s hard to find halal food in japan.. can wash cloth.. and very near with dotonburi and others attractions..

Lovely house on a quiet street - highly recommend Yakiniku Steak restaurant just up the road.

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;

We loved our stay. The house was very clean and comfortable for our family. The location was great. Close to shops and restaurants and a short walk to the local and JR train stations. The area wasn’t very touristy so we felt like locals! Express train ride from Yamashina station into Kyoto was easy.

Shoji was a tremendous host. The airbnb was clean, spacious, and decorated very nicely. Additional perks include a variety of manga, some tourist guide books, playstation 1 with dance dance revolution, etc. The location is in a quiet, beautiful area of Kyoto. Also the airbnb is located right by a Yamato office which was very convenient to send luggage from. I would love to stay again!

This location is great. May is very helpful and responsive. She even offered to help with carrying the luggages. There are many eateries in walking distance. I wish to come back in future.

This apartment is the perfect place to stay to experience Kyoto a little off the beaten path. I wanted to get more out into nature near the outskirts of the city, Asami's apartment fit the bill wonderfully. I felt extremely welcome in the space, and was given helpful local recommendations for sights to see that fit my desires.

I absolutely loved my stay. The place was extremely clean, the location is in a beautiful lowkey neighborhood that’s walkable to some of the bigger attractions and shopping. Definitely recommend staying here during your visit. A couple recommendations for stores close by - Homies, T.T, and otsu_kei

We really enjoyed staying here while visiting Kyoto for our honeymoon - highly recommend!

great place for the price and had everything I need to washer machine bath, bidet and a small kitchen with microwave toaster oven. but the only thing was that's the electric boiler wasn't working

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

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here! The apartment is on a quiet residential street away from big crowds. There are multiple supermarkets and subway stations close by as well as lots of restaurants. The apartment is warm and inviting. It's stocked with all the things you need for a great stay and the host has a very helpful book with local information on the table to help with your stay. We loved that staying here felt like coming home every night and gave us the feeling of living in Kyoto over the last couple weeks. One thing to know is the beds are very firm, but not uncomfortable. We would definitely stay again if it's available next time we visit Kyoto!

This place is in the perfect location! Close to the beautiful rivers and downtown where there’s lots of good places to eat!

The host responds to messages very quickly. The house is very clean and as it appears in the photos. We felt like we were at home. Very comfortable beds. Spacious cozy and beautiful home. The messages sent by the host were very detailed and helped us a lot with everything we needed.

Really good location. And quite at the same time. Had a really nice rest.

clean room, near to train station and very good host

Walkable distance to the shopping street. Had trouble finding the place at first but the host was very fast & responsive. We loved the tatami room. It can fit alot of us & it is pretty comfortable.

This was an amazing stay. After being crammed into other Airbnb's liked sardines in Osaka and Tokyo, this was such a relief. there was plenty of room for us and the location couldn't have been better. Also there is a lively rooftop bar. Couldn't ask for anything more. Would stay here again!

Incredible Airbnb! Seth's place is in the perfect location, near many attractions and restaurants! Right next to the Gion distric and a 10-15 minute walk to the Yasaka Pagoda! There is even a vending machine outside the unit! The unit is very cozy and the beds were probably the most comfortable we've slept on while in Japan! It is very quiet and we slept great! The unit is on the second floor so keep that in mind with luggages. I had no issues bringing our two big bags up! As well Seth is easy to communicate with, check in is easy and he's a great host! Do yourself a favor and rent this place, you won't regret it!

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
