The elevator takes FOREVER even when it's working
Pros: Great Location, Social Vibe, Unique Experience Cons: Unexpected City Tax Excellent central Kyoto location. Walking distance to subways, buses, restaurants, and major sights. First time staying in a pod and really enjoyed it. The happy hour beer was a perfect way to meet travelers and decompress. Love the 10,000-steps larger glass bonus! Only downside was an unexpected check-in accommodation tax. Staff explained it was a city-mandated fee, but it was an unpleasant surprise. Otherwise, highly recommend this lodging!
As it is my first time traveling alone (as a woman) I was kind of scared of the thought of hostels. Through research I found this Hotel and when I tell you that this was luxury. The bathrooms were clean and nice, the showers were big while also providing a dry area to change !! I was also scared of it being loud BUT, as I chose the women-only level, I was pleasantly met with everyone being quiet and mindful of each other. The staff was also very helpful to every silly question I had. If I ever visit Kyoto for a second time (which I will !), I will choose this accommodation again !! :D
easily the best hostel i’ve stayed at. They’ve got steamers and irons you can borrow for free, hair straighteners and more. The venue is lovely
I stayed at the Millennials Kyoto for 4 nights recently. As far as the room quality goes, the reclining beds here are incredibly comfortable. Each pod also has a fan and light you can toggle with an iPod. The common facilities such as restrooms and showers are also very high quality. The showers here in particular are some of the nicest I’ve ever used in a hostel. The staff at the front desk speaks great English and is super friendly. Free breakfast is good. Free WiFi is fast. If you arrive before check in, you’re more than welcome to store any luggage with them in the main lounge. As for noise it was always super quiet. Never had any issues with the other guests staying here. As for location, this hostel is located in central Kyoto surrounded by restaurants and various shopping centers. It’s pretty crowded, but it does quiet down in the early morning hours. You’ve got plenty in walking distance from this hostel if you ever need anything really. Only issue I had while staying here as a tourist was that the buses and trains can be a little confusing to navigate. Google Maps will state that a bus or train will arrive at a set location at a set time, only to not arrive at all or arrive in a totally different stop along the route. This was completely unrelated to the hostel however. Just something to be mindful of if you’re wanting to travel to the many shrines, temples, and other notable tourist spots throughout Kyoto.
