Family Inn Kei 慶 features accommodation within 3.2 km of the centre of Kyoto, with free WiFi, and a kitchenette with an oven, a microwave and a toaster. This 1-star guest house offers a lift and luggage storage space. Private parking can be arranged at an extra charge. Staff were amazing! Our son injured his ankle while touring and they very kindly rented a wheel chair on our behalf. We will be forever grateful for their timely and obliging assistance. As for the hotel / rooms: they are lovely "Japanese modern", well equipped, and spotless. Bonus points for the elevator! Location is a 5-ish min. walk to the metro. A quick jump to Kyoto station and, as someone else noted, "a straight shot to Nara". (We didn't check and had to transfer on the way there, but not on the way back). The area is quiet and authentic. It was nice to head "home", away from the tourist bustle! We could easily have paid twice as much, for half as much space, in another location. So glad we didn't! We would stay at Family Inn Kai again in a heartbeat, should we be lucky enough to visit Kyoto again.

The ammenities were amazing, the onsen was so nice and so was the bedroom; the lady running the place was an absolute gem and was so nice to speak with every day. Made it feel like you were returning home to a home stay every night :) The whole room would be cleaned, fresh towels and robes each day with a new snack on the bedside. It was truly luxury.
Great hostel in gion, walking distance to the main area, the hostel is small, quiet and clean.
Great traditional japanese house and great hosts. The family makes you feel like you are home. Super nice and warm people.
Lovely host who was very easy to deal with. All amenities provided and easy to explore Gion from.
Nice place, great host, really nice facilities and the location is pretty solid nearby convenience stores as expected.
Location was excellent! Quiet street so felt like a private residence, but one street away from the busy touristy street.
Lovely authentic Japenese home stay with fantastic hosts. The breakfast was phenomenal each day. Mario even dropped us to the train station.
Everything was just excellent! Starting with the private pick-up by the lovely host Takashi, the instruction round through the appartment, which was totally equipped, it just felt like home. :-) Also the local recommendations were very much appreciated and helpful for our stay.
Very private homestay, intelligently designed in a small space so we could have a kitchen, a private bathroom and a spacious room. The location is very good as well, just in front of a temple. The checkin procedure was flawless. Highly recommended this place !
Lovely staff. Enjoyed my stay here. Really wish my japanese was better than it is because the place seems very cool and popular among locals. Would have loved to meet more locals but my japanese isn't there yet. All around great hostel. Seems very hip
