It’s a self check in facility but front door keypad does not work very well. Had to wait until another guest showed up and opened the door from inside. Very difficult to communicate with the hotel prior to check in and during stay. Location wise, in a residential area, very quiet. Very dark at night in the alley. Walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors.

This was definitely a highlight. The bathhouse is a bit small but when you have it to yourself it is amazing. Area is pretty good, close to the market. Staff are really helpful and even let me check in early! Just the facilities are a bit old but that's what the experience is for ig.

the place is really a good location. Near the ninenzaka, kiyomizu temple, gion district and bus stop. If you like night/morning walking around those area, i can say this place is really a good location.

and near the supermarket if you want to buy something and eat it in your room.

It’s exactly what you expect - a minimalist, simple room. Location is great, being close to lots of touristy stuff while feeling like you’re in amoungst the locals. Supermarket next door was great, and some yummy spots to eat at nearby. About 10 minutes walk to Gion area, 15 to Kiyomizu-dera

Reasonable Hotel in a great Area

We weren’t planning on making a trip to the Gion district, but we’re pleasantly surprised when we found out that our hotel was a 3 minute walk away.

A great experience!

The place was very clean and in great condition. I loved the interior design. It was modern with clean lines and very pleasing to the eyes. The owner/ receptionist Junya was friendly and helpful. The room was smaller than I had expected, but for the price this was a good bargain in the Kyoto district. I would stay there again the next time I visit. : ) Thank you Junya san.

Rak Kiyomizu was a lovely place to stay - clean, comfortable and well located. Only downside is that the walls between rooms are quite thin and you can hear noise from other guests.

Nice staff, good location

The location is good for some of the attraction, we only need to take one time subway to other location , other locations we can just walk to there , except if you go from Osaka, the subway is a bit far especially if you are carrying luggage . Nice staff, room size is suitable and clean. Noise isolation could be better, we can hear someone come in form the enterence and someone talk next to our room. Overall we are very satisfied.

建物の内装・外装共とてもおしゃれです。室内はUB等が無い分広く、ゆったり過ごせました。
ドアの開閉音や廊下を歩く人の足音などはかなり聞こえますが、注意書きにシャワーの使用時間や室内でのオーディオの再生等のルールがきちんと書かれているため、快適に過ごせると思いました。
