Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Honshu

Yuya is a brilliant host, his breakfast is delicious and he is so kind and helpful. The BnB is stunning, peaceful and very well kept.

Shuli-san and his wife were incredibly warm, kind, and hospitable! They offered to pick me up and drop me off from Himeji station, they were very attentive to my needs, and relished the opportunity to sit down, have some coffee, chat, and share stories together!

Staying with Yuriko san at her home is an experience I will cherish. I loved my traditional Japanese room, sitting in the living room watching the fireplace, taking a long bath in her Hinoki bath tub. She is so generous with her time picking and dropping me in town but also went out of the way to get me to places I wanted to explore in the area. We had fun visiting a strawberry farm, a temple and a sake brewery. She treated me like family even sharing their dinner with me. And her breakfasts are amazing. I definitely want to go back in Autumn. Thank you Yuriko San for being so kind and generous.

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

Great location and in walking distance to Happo village. Shuttle bus to nearby slopes and staff very friendly and helpful.

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!

This place was extremely well presented and one of the best Air Bnbs we have stayed in! It was extremely clean and had fantastic amenities, everything we needed to continue travelling! The house was cosy and we felt right at home. Yoko was very responsive, messaging to ask how we were going and if we needed anything. The location was a bit out of main Kyoto but we enjoyed the peaceful nature of the area and found more yummy restaurants around than in the busy areas. We will hope to stay again next time we are in Kyoto. Thank you for having us stay Yoko!

A thousand thanks to Luffy for the stay and being such a friendly person, having at the entrance as soon as we get music from our favorite animes was an incredible point. In addition to being next to all the places in Hibike euphonium it was something I would definitely repeat again.

The food and the room were very satisfactory.It was my first time using it, but it was an explanation of the access to the inn, and the communication after I arrived was very polite and pleasant. I would like to stay again if I have a chance.

Madoka and Kuero were great hosts! They make you feel right at home from the moment you step in. They also are amazing chefs and we enjoyed a balanced and delicious breakfast everyday of our stay. They go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable and welcome and I can’t recommend this Airbnb enough. Great location, peaceful neighborhood with great restaurants around the area including Madoka’s and Kuero’s café: MoguMogu. All the rooms are clean and pristine. It was always great to be able to fully relax at their place after all the long walking all over Tokyo every day. Thank you guys! We will miss you and we hope to see you again soon!

Motoko was very hospitable, and used some English with us since we couldn't speak much Japanese. She also made us breakfast-to-order each day which was *amazing*. The overall environment felt warm and welcoming, and me and my two co-guests were very comfortable. You should know that this is someone's home with a shared kitchen/living room. You and your fellow guests have a more private living space which includes a washing area, bedrooms and other necessities. (and the host has her own space upstairs as well, so you still have a fair amount of privacy regardless). As long as you're ok with that, this will be a great stay!

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!

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!

If you want to choose a place to start your Kansai trip, this is definitely the right place, they will take care of you from food, rest and travel. At the same time, the room is more comfortable than I imagined, and there will be a different experience here

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!

This little place is a gem and the hosts are amazing! Though you can’t ski in/out, the hosts will give you a lift to any resort for the day and pick you up. They can also drive you to the restaurants in Akakura town. You can even order dinner in and the food was delicious! I would stay here again if I was visiting the area in the future.

hi chiyako san, thank you so much again for having and answering all our questions, we wanted to have a really unique and local way to celebrate the new year in japan and we got just that, chiyako san was very patient with all my queries and always offer to pick us up or drop us off to where we wanted to go, so needless to say, that was the best new year i have had so far, her place is the same as the photos, the food was amazing and the view was just incredible, thank you for opening your home to us. see you!

I had such an incredible stay at Chiyako’s home - she was so helpful, picking me up and dropping me off at the train station, cooking dinner on the night of my arrival. It was extremely beautiful to wake up with a view of the mountains and countryside and she always provided an incredible breakfast, including tea, local yogurt with fruit and a main dish. The space was really comfortable and I had everything I needed for a lovely stay :) I was there for five days, four nights in early March - it was a little chilly, but very peaceful and serene, so I loved it. I mainly stayed around the town, going to the onsen, yakitori restaurant, dessert cafe, etc and everyone was incredibly kind and patient even though I don’t speak Japanese. It was also recommended to go to Hasedera Buddhist Temple which was a short bus ride and one train stop away. I highly recommend- it was really special. I will definitely be back in the summer or early fall :)
