My K House

This ended up being my favorite stay during my entire trip to Japan. Not only was it incredibly spacious and well equipped, it was super clean and well maintained. It had a lovely balcony as well as comfy beds. Plenty of storage room and convenient washer in the room with detergent provided. I really loved the Japanese style of the place and it was in a really great convenient location. Less than 10 minute walk to the main shopping area of Kyoto and Nishiki market and less than 15 minutes to the Gion district. The bus stop taking you to Kyoto station was less than a 5 minute walk. As a solo female travelor I felt incredibly safe as the doors into the property/elevator required a key to access. Staff was also very helpful in accepting and arranging luggage delivery service. Highly recommend and I would definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel. I wish we booked longer in Kyoto to stay here. The location is great and the service was exceptional. We would highly recommend this hotel. The luggage hold service until 8pm is a great option to take up, as you can then roam one last day without lugging your suitcases around before leaving for another location in Japan

I absolutely adored my stay at My K House. I'm going to go over my (very few) minor issues off the bat because the rest of this review will be glowing. My safe was closed/locked when I arrived, and every time I bumped or moved it the alarm went off for about a minute, an annoyance but not a trip ruining experience. The WiFi was also very slow, almost unusable at times, on certain sites (like Google Maps). Last tiny gripe is that the heating zone is only in the main area so if you have the kitchen/bathroom slider shut it can get very cold in there in the winter. That all aside, this place was AMAZING. A fantastic mix of traditional Japanese lodging with western touches. Washer/Dryer combo in the room (dryer takes a bit but works), fantastic shower/bathroom with separate vanity and toilet. Tatami floors and very cozy. It backs out to a very quiet one way alley and sits over a very cozy bar on site. Check-in is down the road (1.5 or so blocks) but on check-in they walked me down and explained the property. Keyed entry for main/elevator/room for safety but the part of town it is couldn't be safer. Comfy beds, amazing Japanese style robes. I stayed 5 nights over Christmas and loved every one of them. Very walkable to two train stations, Nishiki Market, Gion, and a lot of Kyoto within 15-20 minutes. The only thing I'd note is that if you speak next to zero Japanese this is just off the main tourist areas and is more traditional, so learn some basic words to help a ton!
