Family-friendly holiday rentals in Uji

great location, super quiet. could use more heating in the winter (bathroom & shower cold), but would totally stay again!

We stayed at Koji and Eri’s home for one night to experience traditional Japanese Machiya culture, and it was truly unforgettable. The house is over 100 years old but beautifully preserved—spotlessly clean, thoughtfully arranged, functional, and full of charm. Koji and Eri were incredibly warm and welcoming. Eri gave us a detailed room tour along with fascinating insights into Japanese history and tradition. If you’re looking for an authentic cultural experience, this place is a must-stay!

Very nice place with clean and hot tub including place! Drinks, gifts, and quick communications are great to feel welcome at place.

Overall this is a great place to stay. It is centrally located and the apartment is spacious! I'd say here again. One thing to note is that bag storage may not be available, at least for me it wasn't and created a bit of a hassle on my last day in the area. Initially the place was a bit challenging to find, but once located is easy to navigate to.

Great Machiya stay with a traditional feel, but with modern amenities such as heated floor! Also perfect location to explore Kyoto. Tokuji san was always very responsive during communications. Overall, highly recommended!

We came in April — 8 of us. This space was just perfect for our families. We especially loved the quaint neighborhood location. What a secret gem. We are all left wanting to move to Kyoto. Thank you for hosting us!

Lovely place in Kyoto in a very convenient location! We had a great stay and would definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our time at Akane’s place! During check in, she showed us around the house and taught us how to use the appliances, shower, etc., which was very helpful. The house was complete with all we needed. The massage chair and outdoor shower were added bonuses that we enjoyed! Akane was kind and very responsive to any questions we had. Her place was walking distance to Kyoto station, malls, restaurants and convenience stores!

This was a beautiful place to stay whilst exploring Osaka. The house is a peaceful refuge after a busy day's exploring. We absolutely loved our time spent here. We also enjoyed the many beautiful Japanese arts and crafts displayed around the property. Our host was friendly, welcoming and responsive to all our communications. Thank you for this very positive experience.

The location is fantastic — just a stone’s throw from the metro, and only 10 minutes to the city center. We really liked the area because it feels local and authentic, not touristy at all. The house is spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, and full of natural light. Niko is lovely and very thoughtful, which made our stay even better. If I had to mention something, a few things felt a bit worn, and the place wasn’t completely spotless, which we expected. But honestly, it didn’t affect our stay. I still totally recommend it and would definitely come back!

Yamano and his wife were extremely hospitable! Going as far as picking us up from the bus stop when we arrived later than expected to taking us to the train station when we left. He was extremely responsive and always very helpful. Amazing experience!

一戶建的旅居空間很大而且温馨舒適。入住當天我們很晚才到達（晚上10時多才到）但沒想到旅居主人還在等待我們，而且為我們搬行李及打傘，介紹屋內設施。旅居內一應俱全，還有小孩玩具及圖書，還提供很多旅居附近的購物及飲食資訊，寢室很舒適並備有充電插頭，樓梯還裝有小夜燈方便夜間下樓，而且有防滑地毯，洗手間內有毛巾抹手。亦有車位方便自駕人士。意想不到的是竟然有歡迎入住的信，真的非常貼心。性價比非常高，非常適合一家大小，有機會會再次入住，亦會給推介打算造訪大阪的親友。離開時旅居主人夫婦還親自相送！

La casa è molto bella e il giardino interno davvero molto particolare. È perfetta per un soggiorno in una casa autentica giapponese

We had a great stay at Jinn’s place. It was our first time in Kyoto and we thought this was a perfect way to embrace the traditional side of Japan but with modern luxuries. Jinn is an artist and you can see that in the design of this place. It’s beautiful. And the gardens surrounding the property are lovely too and make it feel very peaceful, which was exactly what I needed after the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. Jinn’s place does require walking to and from the bus station but it only takes about 8 minutes and the hill is only the last 2 minutes so it wasn’t unbearable plus it was a nice way to work off all the ramen and gyoza we’d been eating. It’s also close to grocery stores and restaurants. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Jinn was a great host, allowed us to check-in earlier and provided clear check-in instructions and took the time to say farewell after check-out but otherwise gave us heaps of privacy. We would stay here again when we revisit Kyoto.

This is a beautiful house in a quiet area of Kyoto. Here you feel connected to the places you will visit during your trip. The beds are all very comfortable and the facilities are excellent. The garden is a wonderful place to spend time and makes the house even more picturesque. Must stay when you come to Kyoto!

A beautiful home in a nice area of Kyoto conveniently located in close walking distance to bus stops and supermarkets. It was lovely to meet Toshiko who met us for checkin to show us around (& has spent time in our home city of Adelaide, South Australia). The house is well appointed and spacious with separate living areas and a great shower! Highly recommended. Thanks Toshiko!

Good location with parking, just a 5-minute walk to the train station for getting to downtown and Nara. Really good overall – the only downside is that there aren’t many restaurant options nearby.

Nice host ever! Very friendly host. Nice explanation with the clear of instructions. Recommend for people who want to feel comfortable and homie. Happy to stay here !

Das kleine Reihenhaus hat einen tollen Retro-Charme und hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Alles war sauber und tadellos. Der Check-In war dank Megumis ausführlicher Anweisungen einfach umzusetzen. Dabei war die Kommunikation mit ihr immer sehr freundlich und angenehm. Die Lage ist an sich gut. Es liegt zwar in einer gewerbsmäßig anmutenden Nachbarschaft. Dafür liegt die Metro-Station "Sakuragawa" nur eine Station von "Namba"/Dotonbori entfernt, was für Touristen genial ist, die Osaka erkunden wollen. Wir hatten einen schönen Aufenthalt und können die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen :-)

I used to live in Japan. Returning after a long break, I wanted to be in a house that reminded me of Japan and be in a neighborhood that made it easy to get to great places on foot and public transportation. Hiroe’s house met all these expectations and she was such a great host. I highly recommend staying at her house.

We had a great stay at this home. Our group of 6 comfortable stayed amongst the 3 upstairs bedrooms. Like most Japanese homes, the toilets and shower rooms are separate. This home had 2 toilets and 2 showers. The washing machine works great, and the drying functionality (hanging clothes in the bathroom by a drying vent) worked as well. We loved the location, walking distance from the Fushimi Inari shrine and across the street from a 7/11 and walking distance from 3 different train stations. Very easy to get around the area! Thanks for an awesome stay

The say was superb. It was spacious, cozy and clean in a quiet neighbourhood, just minutes from public transport, restaurants, and shops. Perfect for families looking for a place where the entire family can stay together. My kids, two toddlers, had great fun in the play room!

La maison louée est très agréable, conforme aux photos. Yumi est très réactive. Une très bonne expérience de location.

Great place. Great host. Would come back again! Thanks
