Hotel near Gion/Kiyomizu Temple,Kyoto
Located in Kyoto (Higashiyama Ward), Shiki Shiki Higashiyama is within a 10-minute walk of Shijo Street and Yasaka Shrine. This guesthouse is 0.6 mi (1 km) from Kawaramachi Street and 6.9 mi (11.1 km) from Lake Biwa. The front desk is staffed during limited hours. Make yourself at home in one of the 8 guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Bathrooms have hair dryers and slippers.

"Walking close to the attractions, there are supermarkets nearby, convenient supermarkets, take time to find. Pure self-check in, not receiving the check-in email is a very troublesome thing (not the email of the reservation website), fortunately there are other accommodation passengers to assist, otherwise no one can be found, deduct the accidental episode, the hotel price is very affordable."

Glansit Kyoto Kawaramachi

9.5/10
Amazing
Posted on Apr 25, 2026|Standard Capsule, Female Only
CNGuest User
No matter how many times I visit Kyoto, I always highly recommend this capsule hotel. Staying in Kawaramachi is incredibly convenient; you can walk or take the Keihan train to many attractions. The facilities here are top-notch, truly one of the best capsule hotels. They offer a wide variety of free beverages, and a hot matcha every day is a must!

【Women-only】MAJA HOTEL KYOTO

I had a very nice stay :) However, there were some drawbacks. 1. The bed curtains don’t close all the way, but leaves cracks where light can seep into the room. As the corridor between bunks/rooms is lit 24/7 this was a bit annoying. 2. The curtains do not offer any soundproofing and neither do the walls. I heard people pulling up their duvet, shifting in bed, snoring etc. The curtains themselves were also very noisy. 3. The bathroom door does have a ”slow stop” but it just gives a false sense of security. As the bathroom door will slide back into place after use most people just dropped it, however, what they failed to remember was that at the end of the rail the door still hits the wall with a resounding bonk and bounces back to repeat itself. I awoke startled multiple times, as it sounded as if someone was knocking to get into my room. 4. The automatic lock on the main bedroom door is also very loud, but you don’t get the knocking-like sound of the bathroom door. Sound-wise; the complimentary earplugs were great saviors. 5. The only showers are on the 4th floor. This was inconvenient for me as I had to juggle pjamas, a toiletries bag, bathroom slippers and towels from my floor. However, I think this is easy enough to fix; just provide the lower rooms with a basket to carry stuff in. All in all I had a great stay! The hotel is super close to landmarks as Nishiki Market and Kyoto museum so I could always find my way back. The shared areas were also spotless and included great amenities. The staff is super kind as well. It seems like their making the common area even bigger!

The Millennials Kyoto Capsule Hotel Great location and clean environment, with a really well-designed common area. Even though it's a capsule hotel, it offers good privacy and comfort. I had a great experience staying for several nights in a row, and I'd definitely consider coming back here on my next trip to Kyoto.

The room was quite clean, and there's a hot spring you can soak in (though it's actually just a pool). However, after checking out, even though I returned the key, I still received an email saying I hadn't. That made me worry for a while, but thankfully it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

The location was good because it was near Omiya Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line. It's 2 stops from Kyoto Kawaramachi Station. I was satisfied with both the facilities and cleanliness. All the staff were friendly.

The hostel is located in the historic district, meaning you can stroll the picturesque streets in the morning before the crowds get too crowded. The hostel itself is very cozy. We rented a private room (it's larger than in the photo), but a shared room would have been just as nice. The window in the private room doesn't open, but there's air conditioning. There are two toilets, a European-style shower, and a bathroom. There's a washer and dryer (coin-type). The kitchen has everything you need, plus tea and coffee, and it's generally a pleasant place to hang out. The guests are pleasant, with many Japanese staying there. The hostess is wonderful, very hospitable. Thank her so much. She can recommend places to go and make you some mincemeat. If I ever go to Kyoto again, I'd stay here, not in a shared room. This was probably the nicest place I stayed on my entire trip.

Super worth it, we got it for only 2300php/night. I love this room since its huge compared to tother hotels, near bus station, front of a grocery store. Clean was beyond I expected. There was a mini kitchen where you could cook, a table good for 4 persons where you could eat, 2 super comfortable big single beds. The staff were so accommodating and helpful. We got a chance to check in as early as 30 mins before, since the room was already available. Comfort Room is super clean and gorgeous. All in all it was super worth it

The room is clean, large and reasonable. It is very close to the station. There was also a coin laundry. There was a large refrigerator and a microwave. The room was large, so it was relaxing and very comfortable. I would like to use it again.

This is my second time with this hotel. First the place was clean and the break room was very comfortable. I booked a room this time and it was not 100% separated from the others. You can still hear a sound of the people in the room next to you.

The place has an excelente location, easy to get there. The room was cleaned and organized. However, there is no person at the front desk to ask questions or ask for help. The code for entering to the room was sent by SMS, but since we were traveling the service for SMS of our phone company does not work outside our country, so we did not receive the message since we were traveling. They do not have an e-mail address, so the check in instructions could not be send there. When we arrived to the place was late and we found the front desk empty even though we still arrived in the front desk service hours. We had a hard time contacting the hotel but luckily could get some help in calling the administration to get our room number and the code.
