Holiday rentals with breakfast in Koka

Kyoko was a fantastic host, who even met us at the door before arrival to allow us to put our bags in early! She provided lots of local recommendations, had a beautiful space, and even provided us food and other snacks! It is in a great location, 15 min from Nara Park and 5 minutes to Nara Station (if train noises keep you up, be sure to bring earplugs!) and I cannot say enough great things about this stay!

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb in Osaka. The unit was exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable for our group of six. It provided everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable visit. The location is extremely convenient—just a short walk to the subway and surrounded by a great selection of restaurants. Universal Studios Japan was also easily accessible, only about 15–20 minutes away, which made our trip even more enjoyable. Our host was outstanding—very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. They provided clear and concise directions to the property, as well as straightforward instructions for the check-in process, which made everything smooth and hassle-free. Overall, a great experience. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Osaka.

Before check-in, the host gave us a detailed check-in manual, instructions on how to check in and register; the house is close to Imazato Station, there are Lawson and places to eat nearby, convenient to get around; there are three tatami in the room, so it is best to bring a four-piece set of beds, and the number of beds is arranged according to the number of people traveling (many travelers with heterosexuals can refer to our comments); overall, it feels good to live.

Modern and fresh apartment. All the amenities that you need. Loved the recliner chairs to relax. Great kitchen with everything you need to cook for yourself. Large and easy to use bathroom with washing machine. Great outside area including hot tub. You’re right next to a bamboo forest. So very peaceful. Walkable to Fushimi Inari Shrine and 1000 red Torii if you are able bodied. Naoko responded to every request quickly and happily. Loved the treats for breakfast. Thanks Naoko.

Our thanks to these great hosts who were very accommodating from the first inquiry all the way to checkouut. A very friendly family who truly welcome you to their village and home. The thatched cottage was as advertised and the experience of staying out in the countryside was perfect. Not a complaint, but just stating the house is an old house with low hanging beams, which an average height persob bumped their head 5 times in 3 nights 😉. But again fully recommend Yoshiko-san's Mitoya cottage, a nice peaceful stay.

I had a wonderful stay at 耕造. They were very adamant about making sure I knew what I needed to about staying in the room, and very generous with things like snacks and advisories about what to do in town. I had a great time in Kyoto and I would definitely stay here again. Arigatou, thank you!

Luana's property is clean and neat. The location is convenient.

We’ve been to many Airbnb’s but this has been the best one. The welcoming was amazing with information about the beautiful architecture of the house, which was as beautiful as in movies. Also very clean and we are very happy with our stay and recommend this to anyone thinking about it. Also a perfect getaway from the big cities!

Comfortable room. Small for 4 but pleasant; it is well designed to stay there for a few days. Close to Universal Studio Park ☺️👍

Kuniko is a ‘Super Host’, the very best of the very best. Welcoming, friendly, always smiling and very helpful. The rooms are clean with traditional, though comfortable sleeping arrangements (actually very suitable moreso for a family with children, cuz it’s also fun). There was a fridge, a microwave, even a washing machine. The shower was great (although took me a while to figure out how to get water to come out of the shower-head - lever up vs. down - unusual). There was an abundant supply of towels and even a laundry basket to put them in), plus ample bins in which to sort your paper & plastics. Kuniko provides breakfast in her little cafe downstairs although we did not partake (except for a coffee on our last day). Note that Kuniko even stored our luggage (4 pieces) prior to check/in time. Kuniko is SO accommodating and just a lovely person (we love her black lab too). There was a stove top (tho we didn’t cook).

The host was absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere was always friendly and welcoming. The location was perfect for me since I was attending a conference at the international conference centre (20 minute walk). The facilities were excellent for the price.

Great travel and hospitality experience at Ichie's. We spent 3 days with my daughter and it was a memorable experience, we slept very well on the tatami mats and the interaction with Ichie was super interesting. I would highly recommend it!

We stayed at four airBnb‘s in Japan and all have their good points, but this was by far the best. Located in a quiet suburb so not walking distance to the main sites of Kyoto, but with some lovely sites that we would not have seen otherwise Close by. It was as simple Uber ride or train ride to get into Kyoto for main sightseeing and it was lovely to come home to a quiet un bustling local with a wide choice of excellent restaurants to choose among. The apartment itself is spacious, by far the most spacious we stayed in And it’s part of a an apartment complex which has a small gym. Nori and Fumi even served us breakfast all three days we were there in another upstairs breakfast room. To top it off, they picked this up and dropped us off at this train station three days later. All in all it was a really welcoming and comfortable place to stay, well worth the price we paid

Stayed here for a second time. Great place, feels spacious and has everything you need. It's quiet but also not far from anything you'd want to do in the area. Definitely recommend this place. Amazing hosts, easy instructions and comfortable space.

Clean apartment with great amenities. Close access to two train lines makes getting around very easy.

Yuya san was very hospitable to us,He is a great host!His house is full of cultural atmosphere, large and clean. The plants in the garden are lush and healthy. I highly recommend you to experience his house and appreciate his gardener's craftsmanship. We spent a pleasant time in his house.

This place is beautiful, peaceful and close to nature. Miyuki is easy to communicate with and responsive. The place is super nice, very clean and neat. The breakfast is simple yet very very homey and delicious. We wish we stayed much longer here. Locationwise is near the Gojo city so plenty of big supermarket, restaurants, etc. Recommended to drive so can explore this area better. We live the peaceful morning walk around the house. Thank you sooo much, Miyuki! Hope will be back here again in the future.

Albeit brief, this was my favorite stay of my entire Japan trip. The hosts were incredibly friendly and always proactive in making sure we felt at home not just in our accommodation but also in Kyoto and the lovely and peaceful neighborhood the townhome resides in. They made sure to follow up every question we had and made sure we were able to travel and make our next destination smoothly. We had some stressful travel beforehand, but they were extremely flexible in made our trip much easier. Also their cute daily breakfast was delicious and every single room had so much personality. It has a shared common space and bathroom but it never felt inconvenient and also allows you to get a one of a kind experience in Kyoto. The price was also incredibly reasonable and a great value. I look forward to returning next time I’m in town!

This was the best stay of our trip! The home was warm and welcoming. Chris was an excellent host; attentive, full of suggestions and recommendations, and very helpful with every request we had. It felt like we had an insider connection to this city. Big thank you!

It was great to have breakfast, delicious and even better if it was a little more abundant

It was fabulous to meet チヤコ and her friends. We felt very welcomed and cared for. チヤコ, the kids and friends are open an inquisitive. It led to many nice conversations and educational exchanges. It hurt to leave the next day. Highly recommend!

What a beautiful traditional Japanese home to stay We totally loved the old house, beautiful decorations, the inner courtyard and our room. Everything was perfect! Chieri is a great host, we felt very welcomed and home right away. We were on a road trip, so we also enjoyed that we could wash our clothes. And we tried out the traditional japanese bath. Perfect! Chieri, thank you for everything! Hope to see you someday again!

Staying at John’s place in Shiga was an unforgettable experience! John is an incredibly passionate and energetic host, always full of enthusiasm. He and his lovely wife, Rika, made me feel right at home. They even invited me to join their family for a delicious homemade dinner, and Rika kindly provided breakfast as well. Their son, Andre, was also very friendly, and I truly enjoyed our conversations. The house itself is a charming countryside cottage surrounded by beautiful nature, making it a perfect getaway. If you’re visiting Shiga, staying with John is an absolute must! Highly recommended!
