Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Higashiyama Ward

We had a lovely stay in Icy's traditional Japanese house. The location is excellent, quiet but well connected to all major transport within walking distance. The house is quite spacious - we had lots of room for the 4 of us. Everything was super-well equipped, including even washing machine detergent, bathroom amenities and really everything. Overall super pleasant stay in a traditional setting and even a fish pond which they kids loved. One watchout (as with any other Japanese place I think) are the steep staircases - we had no issue with them, but could be an issue for older travelers or very young kids.

I have no words to describe how good our experience was at this apartment. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The room was spacious and clean. I felt like it fully encompassed the Japanese living experience. Mikiko was kind and friendly, always answering our questions and giving us recommendations for things that we wanted to do. Thank you so much! We will be back :).

Amazing place, amazing location!

A very nice apartment, with great design and in a good location. Has 2 toilets and 2 showers, which makes it great for families. About 150m away from the nearest convenience store and about 200m away from the nearest bus stop. The host is very nice, helpful and responsive. Highly recommended!

We stayed three nights at Koji-san's home and felt right at home. The place has a lot of space and really nice work station and a really comfy bed. This home is super clean and very well crafted together. There is washer and dryer, fridge and a small pantry area for some snacks. It is set in a quiet neighbourhood yet walking distance to train station and some really cool small local restaurants and bars! There's a gin distillery nearby with food and drinks, a really good local breakfast cafe where you get nice sandwiches and of course family mart for everything else you need. I strongly recommend this home for those who like to have an authentic experience in Tokyo yet having the accessibility to explore beyond!

The place was beautiful with a traditional Japanese style, and the experience of sleeping on the futon was wonderful. The accommodation overlooks a small stream that separates it from the river by just a street, about 50 meters away. The surrounding area is lovely, with plenty of activities and good restaurants. I really enjoyed the stay, and the front desk lady was extremely kind and helpful. I wish I knew her name so I could mention it here. Thank you for this beautiful experience 🙏🏻

It was an enjoyable stay with a beautiful view and charming traditional atmosphere.

The house is near Tofukuji station, make it easy to walk around the city by train. The house is equipped very well especially the washing machine is very good to dry clothes, and also she provides 6 bicycles. we had fun time, riding bicycles along Kamo river. Natalie is very responsive and helpful host. Thanks to her for her kind hospitality.

Our stay here was absolutely perfect! The apartment was impeccably clean and cozy, well stocked and we loved the amenities they provided. The hosts were also very clear in the directions and responsive, thank you!

Very strategic location, near of stores and restaurants. Clean apartment and easy to find ! Great value for money

It was GREAT!!! A nice authentic experience, highly recommend, the hosts were very accommodating and helpful. Everything was very clean and in a quiet neighborhood but close to lots of shopping centers also!

Great stay in a convenient part of Kyoto! Apartment was clean and spacious. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay in Kyoto. It was in a great location and we were able to get to everything fairly easily. The space was small, and there is not space for oversized luggage. We carefully laid them on the bathroom floor near the windows and that still gave us enough space to move about. The rest of the flooring is tatami mats so you need to be very carefulnot to roll luggage on it. You also have to walk up a narrow stepped staircase for 3 floors to make it to the room so please keep that in mind. It had beautiful traditional japanese touches that made it stand out. The open air bath was a lovely feature and I especially enjoyed that. It also has a door for privacy. My husband and I did notice that it is not possible to fill the bathtub while the shower was on, so I would suggest filling the bathtub before you shower. Keep these things in mind when you are deciding if it's right for you. Overall, it was lovely and the japanese beds helped our bodies recover from each day of walking.

Our stay was fantastic! The apartment is in a great location — super convenient with lots of excellent restaurants and local spots just a short walk away. It had everything we could possibly need and made us feel right at home. The area is vibrant during the day and calm at night. The host was responsive and easy to communicate with. We’d definitely stay here again!

Top location and really nice host. Gave us good tips. I would strongly advise to visit the restaurant around the corner. We had the best experience there

We had a wonderful stay in this very clean and comfortable home, which had everything we needed—whether we were relaxing inside or heading out to explore. After a week of travel, we especially appreciated having laundry facilities and helpful supplies on hand. The space felt roomy for the two of us, especially compared to other places we’ve stayed in Japan. May and Milan were very responsive, and the detailed instructions made it easy to use the Japanese appliances. The location was excellent, just a 10-15 minute walk to Nishiki Market, with plenty of great restaurants and cafes nearby. We’d love to return and would happily stay at May’s place again!

Accommodation in a good location, clean and easy to access. Great for a stay in Kyoto. Very helpful host, thank you!

The Kyoto apartment was well positioned, close to several bus lines and only about a five minute walk from the river and many restaurants and bars. The washing machine was appreciated and it felt more down to earth to get the experience of a proper apartment while on our travels. The hosts were very communicative and made us feel well hosted.

The host is the most amazing and kind hosts I have been across in my 9 years of being with Airbnb. He picked us up from the station since we had large bags and a baby stroller. We had a good time at his cafe where he hosted breakfast for, he also had fruits ready for us when we arrived. The location is also simply perfect in terms of connectivity to public transport, restaurants and supermarkets. We hope we can stay here whenever we visit Japan again.

We had a great time at this apartment! This was the perfect place to stay in Kyoto. there is a ton to do in the immediate area around the neighborhood and May was an amazing host!

Beautiful place. Lots of space for family of 5. Walking distance to the train station. Has all the basic amenities needed.
