Osaka University Tours and Activities

We stayed in Kabin Kyoto for 4 nights and are happy with our time there The room is clean, spacious, with coin-operated laundry machines available at each floor. The hotel is on a quiet street, but 10 minutes walk to Nishki market, a few minutes walk to the Shijo station, and around 15 minutes walk to Gion. We didn’t try breakfast in the hotel restaurant, because a small size of black coffee there costs 680 yen, more than double the price of coffee in Family Mart and tastes worse.

Staying at Kamo Residences was an absolute pleasure. Check-in was quick, and the place itself is pure luxury—beautiful interiors, a fantastic layout, designer furniture (high-end, solid and comfy). The full kitchen, washer-dryer, and microwave made everything super convenient. Room cleaning 3 times per day, plus bed turnover while we were out for dinner. Beds are high, thick and comfortable, nice support. We asked for harder pillows, no problem. Sheets and bedding silky. Cleanest hotel I have seen - ever. Dinner was arranged by front-desk who set us up with a two star Michelin restaurant the same day, nice! The hotel arranged a great chauffeur and tour guide for us, taking us to Arashiyama and spending half a day exploring Gion (very friendly and knowledgable gent). Breakfast was custom-made for us—a Kyoto-style bento box, hot and fresh. We’re headed to Tokyo now but will be back for a four-day stay next week. Can’t wait to return. Thank you to Rio, Maru and all the other staff.
