Gojo Guest House - Hostel

“The place is in a nice area, thanks to the covid we have more space in the room. The staff were very nice and helpful. I received many useful tips, for example, they save me a trip to the golden temple which is now under construction.”

“The place has the feeling of a Ryokan where travelers around the world come to gather. The atmosphere is very cozy and welcoming, and meeting other travelers and sharing your adventures for the day adds to that. The staff is very friendly, has good English skills, and is ready to serve you whenever you need it.”

“The tatami mats and beds were very comfortable. We were allowed a great amount of flexibility with bags and coming in and out.”

“Amazing 100 year old machiya that's made perfect for traveller's by the friendly staff, with a bar/cafe downstairs, laundry and kitchenette upstairs with traditional-style teapots. Loved the room with tatami floors, diffuse natural lighting and comfortable mattresses. All the little details were thought out, while retaining all of the house's original aesthetic character and details. Our favourite place to stay during our entire trip through Japan!”

“Great place to get a more traditional guest house to round out you’re experience in Kyoto and Japan. The staff were phenomenal.”
