We enjoyed our stay. Love the beautiful design of this place. The beds were comfortable. Quiet location, but a bit far from train station. We used the bus instead which was convenient. Staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel provided welcome drinks. Thank you for the free self service drip coffee and board games in the communal kitchen that we enjoyed as a family.

Nicest hostel style location I have ever stayed at. Staff spoke English very well, made it incredibly easy for a first time traveller. Rooms and utilities were clean and had many ammenities. The Cafe and Lounge below was great to have. with few breakfast options around the area, the cafe being open 6 days a week was amazing. The food and Coffee was 10/10. Will be returning if I ever come back to Kyoto

Kefu Stay and Lounge is a compact boutique hotel. As long as you check in before 9 pm the office is attended by two very nice young people who serve a lovely choice of breakfast and lunch at very reasonable prices. All amenities are in the true clean Japanese style with attention to detail. Our room had a hand basin. The individual shower and other individual toilet were next door in the corridor and were lockable. Recommend.

Above and beyond!
Kefu stays was amazing! The host went above and beyond to help with our luggage. Everything was so comfortable. Just know the closest subway is a 30 minute walk but you can rent bikes at the front desk!

キレイでオシャレで素敵な宿です。食事もおしゃれで美味しくて、特に特別な卵を使った卵かけご飯は絶品! ただ、シャワーが共同で、夜遅い時間は使用できないため、入りたい時間にシャワールームが満員で使えない日がありました。 もう少し遅い時間までシャワーを使えるようにして欲しい。
