Great Room Great Location

Couldn’t have asked for a better location. Around the corner of train and bus. Walking distance of infinite dining options and shopping. So close to everything. Really clean and comfortable. And the rainfall shower head is the best ever. I’m gonna get one for my home. Five Stars.

Ideal location

Great location, Kyoto is very walkable from the Kabin. Windows don’t open, so can get a bit stuffy. Rooms are a good size for Japan
Neil, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room we stayed was spacious and we had enough room for the 3 of us. Check in was an easy process through the app and the staff was helpful during the times they are designated to be there. We liked that the hotel had laundry onsite and we were 16mins walk distance from multiple cultural sites.

Great location. Clean and convenient. Enjoyed our stay.
David, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, clean and convenient.

Excellent location. Convenient and clean room for family of 4. It was big enough for us as our 4 small suitcases fit under the beds, but if you travel with anything beyond check-in size suitcases there is only space for 2 on the ground. Check-in & out was super easy, staff was very helpful. The only downside was that the dryers could only handle tiny loads. We washed 2 big loads but then ended up air drying most of it on hangers in our room as the dryer was not very powerful, even at a 1/3 of our wash load. In the end it all worked out and I would stay here again for the location and value. We have 2 big teenage boys, so they enjoyed not needing to share a bed and each got their own twin.

Loved it! Will definitely stay here next time in Kyoto. So close to everything! Room was huge for the price, and designed so well. Loved the vibes.

A great stay. In the heart of everything. This is a self service hotel - very new. There was some stains in the carpet, but overall clean. We had a spacious room for 5 people.

Would highly recommend KABIN and would go back to book the same place as well as other properties. Great staff communication as well as accessibility. Lots of room which is hard to find in Japan.
Emily, 3-night trip

I spent about 3 nights with these guys. I loved the location, the staff were helpful and friendly. Every thing was easy to get to including public transport to get to attractions further out. I wish I could be there right now, loved it!

Ower is very help and nice. I would rent again from him.
Dan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We liked how small and lowkey this property is. It appears to be a newly converted hotel with only a few rooms across several floors. We only saw another guest once during our 5 night stay. The room itself was pretty basic and had two beds plus a sleeper sofa. We found some hair on the floor but overall the room was clean. Our favorite thing about the property was the location, as it is a 5 minute walk to public transit and there are several bars and restaurants right on the same street.
Taylor, 5-night trip

I had a problem with the check in and Riku the manager at the other Kabin hotel came in the bike to solve the problem very professionally and fast. I really appreciate the problem solving. Thank you!!
Gisela, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Brand new hotel, I think the paint was still drying when we checked in. It is a very modern hotel, self checkin through an app. Almost never anyone at the front desk. Hotel is immaculate and the room is spacious. Bathroom is great! Kyoto is a City where restaurant reservations are a must, so having a full time front desk would have been nice to help. For younger travelers this is probably perfect, but for older travelers it might be better to be in a more traditional hotel. Cannot beat the location, and there is a great takoyaki place across the street.
Devin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall it was a good stay. We chose this room so that we would have extra space. It was walking distance to temples, shrines, streets of Gion, and Nishiki Market. The things we didn’t like was no staff interaction. Check-in/check-out is all automated, so you don’t have staff to ask questions to. The windows of the room were frosted, so you couldn’t look outside and check the skies for the weather. Even though it was close to a subway station, the Keihan line didn’t travel directly to the places we wanted to go. We ended up using buses and taxis for our visit.
