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.

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!

子どもと一緒の宿泊だったのでどうかなと思っていましたが、ウェルカムドリンクの紫蘇ジュースは最高で、お部屋はとても清潔で、必要なアメニティもそろっており、何よりベッドが大きくて、寝相の悪い親子でもゆったりと眠ることができました。 ちょっと仕事もしましたが、強いWi-Fiでサクサクメールチェックができました！ 子どもが遊び疲れて朝ゆっくり起きたので、朝食の時間に遅れてしまったのですが、嫌な顔ひとつなさらず最高の朝食をご用意してくださいました‼︎ グリルドポーク、西京焼き、卵かけごはん、新鮮な野菜サラダ、どれもすごく美味しかったです‼︎ 可愛い最中アイスがデザートで出てきたのもうれしかったです！ 今回は伏見のお友達に会うことと鉄博が目的でしたが、今度は銭湯プランを付けて、近所の散策も楽しみたいと思いました。 お世話になりました、ありがとうございました‼︎
