8/10 Very good

Reasonable.

Selected to stay after drinking in Gion area with my KYOTO friends. The fee would be reasonable even for young people. (I'm in 50s.) The master is friendly and guests are also. I had some talking time with other foreign guests, which was so interesting and happy time. The room is just that of a modest house and you can hear every noises of the next room. So not suitable for business use. For those who can even enjoy such environments.

ベッドは快適でよく眠れました。トイレ、シャワー、洗面は共用ですが、綺麗でした。もう少し朝食の種類があるとうれしいです。

祇園にあり、知恩院などの観光も河原町でのショッピングもアクセスには問題なし。徒歩５分で京阪の祇園四条駅、阪急の河原町駅には10分程度か。でも市バス（特に市内循環）のメジャーな路線のバス停がすぐ近くにあって、交通の便はとても良いと思います。食事も祇園の立地ですが、比較的リーズナブルな店も周辺のいろいろありますし、四条通の南側の町屋が並ぶ界隈でもリーズナブルな価格で雰囲気のある京町屋で創作和食が食べられる店がいろいろあり、探してみるのも楽しいです。

Super friendly

When we arrived we were greeted by the super friendly owners who spoke enough english that there were no problems. They walked us through everything and showed us out rooms. We had some great conversations with the owners and they were more like friends than staff. The rooms were no particularly large but were big enough for two people. The Duvets were amazing and super fluffy and warm, you will be sleeping on a traditional futon here but not to worry as they are comfortable. The included breakfast consisted of some toast with spreads, tea/coffee and a banana. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean and kept to a high standard. There was also washing machine that you could pay to use which we definitely did. The location is within walking distance of a train station, temples and most of the main sites of Kyoto as far as we were concerned although we were fit. The guesthouse it down a narrow alley way an near a alley intersection. In conclusion, the clean comfy beds and the super friendly staff made this one of the most memorable stays in Japan that we had.

居心地の良い宿

今回女性１人で､２段ベッド２つの４人部屋に宿泊しました｡とても丁寧且つフレンドリーに案内してくださいました｡水回りがキレイで､よく掃除されていると思いました｡部屋には小さいけど貴重品入れあり｡お風呂はシャワーだけです｡洗濯機乾燥機､有料ですがあります｡共有スペースには冷蔵庫もあり､自由に使わせてもらえます｡朝食は､パンとバナナをいただけます｡足りなさそうな人は持ち込んで冷蔵庫に入れておいてもいいと思います｡何か分からないことがあれば気軽に聞けます｡色々調べてくれて助かりました｡気楽な旅をしたい方にはオススメ｡

滞在する人へ

アドバイス： 入り組んだところにあるため見つけづらい。玄関に通る通路が喫煙場所になっており嫌煙家にはキツイ。荷物を預けるなど昼休み時間に到着する場合は、鍵が閉まっているので事前に伝えておくべき。快適度が低いのは、木造なので階段や廊下の足音が響き眠れなかったので。耳栓をもっていくべき。

突然の宿泊でしたがスタッフさんは笑顔で迎えてくださいました。設備も新しく綺麗で気持ちよく滞在できました。 朝ごはんのパンもジャムの種類がたくさんあるので好きなものが見つかるはず。 祇園のバス停からも近く、アクセスも便利なのでまた京都に行くときは滞在したいです。

Stingy breakfast and a terrible on-site manager

Hotel is in a convenient location with small but adequate rooms. The free breakfast is a joke - each person is allowed to have 2 slices of white break with artificial butter / peanut butter + 1 banana. However, the worst is the guy who sleeps behind the front desk and manages the hotel. He seemed to take his job as telling us what was prohibited - "No, you cannot eat a banana now, breakfast only". One evening, he hosted a noisy dinner party for his friends in the hotel's tiny lobby/kitchen/dinning area, which means no guest could use the only common area that evening and everyone had to parade in front of some drinking/shouting men to use the showers. We waited till 10 PM to ask them to keep the noise down, only to be told by the guy that the curfew (lights out, noise down) was 11 PM!

Bon emplacement mais chambre un peu petite

Très agréable guest house. Idéalement situé, cet établissement propose un petit-déjeuner qui demande une petite révision. Mais sinon, rien à redire.

다다미방 경험을 해본것이 너무 좋았네요.

가족4명이 다다미방에서 1박을 했었는데 시설이 너무 깨끗하고 직원분들이 매우 친절했습니다. 저희 방이 계단옆이라 소리가 나기는했으나 큰 지장은 없습니다. 아침에 무료제공하는 빵과 커피등도 매우 좋았구요. 외국인분들도 많아서 좋은 경험이었습니다.

Incredible experience

It was very incredible to stay at GuestHouse Yururi and experiencing a traditional Japanese room with tatami and futon. Besides that, Mr Kouzou is a fantastic host and will make everything to make you happy. Breakfast is included (toasts, butter, jam, coffee and tea) and the neighborhood is the best one to stay in Kyoto! If you're lucky you can see some Geishas!
