Holiday rentals with breakfast in Lake Biwa

Amazing place and amazing host! Yoko is a kind and welcoming host, paying attention to every single detail. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean and the house is really beautiful (much better than depicted in the pictures). Our stay was beyond our expectations and we can’t be thankful enough. If we ever go back to Kyoto, we’ll definitely stay at Yoko’s place again.

Chihiro さんis very inviting and really adorable. She was really understanding and kind. She gave us tips. We felt at home. Very pleasant memory 🌸

Larry was a very positive, friendly host. Very, very nice person and very helpful. He picked us up from the station which was very nice.

If you go to Kyoto you have to go to Keiko’s house ! She is absolutely LOVELY and her home is very comfortable. It is very easy to go from the station to the station next to her home and she will pick you up there ! I highly recommend this stay 🌸 Thanks again for everything Keiko 🩷

Lovely host, great location, squeaky clean home

Comfortable, clean and with lots of charm ( a beautiful mix of modern and Japanese style). In the residence there was another apartment which is convenient if you are traveling with another family (which was our case). The accommodation is well located, close to public transport. There's a beautiful temple nearby.

Lovely spot and hosts.

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

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.

This guest house is will be the best choice. The host tommy is very kind and mindful. He speaks english very well, so someone who didn't speak japanese will be satified. Also, the domitory bed was very nice. It's cozy and comfotable. And Tommy will give you breakfast If you request. The toast was tasty. I recommend this guest house, you will not regret your choice. Thank you tommy!

A really great place! We had the deluxe room with balcony overlooking the small garden from above. Delicious breakfast, very nice hosts and a beautiful time-honored house. You can even rent bikes and explore the area. The house is quietly located but by bus you are quickly everywhere. Clear recommendation!

The host was so kind, the meal was delicious, and the location was so good. I'm thinking of visiting again! Thank you so much:)

Best Airbnb! we stayed at their 200 yeas old farmhouse with wonderful rooms, a terrace and surroundings. Very cozy big house. We have had a BBQ dinner together with the hosts and they also served us breakfast. it was super great to stay there.

Chieri made us feel welcome at her home and in the local community.

I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb in Kyoto! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help out with any questions or needs. The location is great – it’s about a 10-15 minute walk to the nearest station and equally close to popular spots like Sanjo and Nishiki Market, making it easy to explore the area. One of the highlights of my stay was definitely the breakfast. It wasn’t just a standard continental breakfast – each morning, they prepared a full, delicious spread for every guest, which was such a treat to start the day. You could really feel the care and effort they put into making everyone feel at home. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The only minor issue was the washer and dryer, which are a bit dated. The dryer took a while to dry a half load, so I’d recommend doing smaller loads or planning laundry for when you have some time to hang out. Overall, I loved my stay here and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting!

A beautiful traditional machiya house, super clean, rooms were fantastic (I stayed in two different rooms), host were very helpful and welcoming, food was so delicious, location very central (walking distance to Kyoto Station, restaurants, cafés). I had a wonderful experience overall; surpassed my expectations!

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!
