Kyoto Waka Hotel

Aparthotel-style stay in Kyoto with personal hospitality and laundry facilities

Guest Hospitality

Guests at Kyoto Waka Hotel are welcomed by a host who goes beyond standard service, such as carrying luggage up the stairs and offering drinks from the vending machine. The owner greets each visitor personally, provides maps with restaurant recommendations, and checks in on guests throughout their stay. This level of individual attention is a consistent highlight, with many reviewers rating their experience a 10 out of 10.

Rooms & Amenities

The aparthotel provides rooms with a washing machine, a fully equipped kitchenette including a stovetop, microwave, and a dining table. Each room is air-conditioned and has a TV with access to Netflix and YouTube for evening entertainment. Coin-operated washing and drying machines are available on the first floor, requiring only 100 yen coins and no additional soap.
