We really liked the hostel because it is modern and has clean toilets and showers. The owners were friendly and helpful. The bus stop is only a 4-minute walk away and a bus runs regularly. The 7-Eleven around the corner was very convenient. We would like to come back because the 5 nights at the Suzuki Guesthouse were perfect.

A guesthouse that was like my second home during my stay in Kyoto.The stay at Suzuki Guesthouse was beyond my expectations. The owners brought out a very cozy and homey feeling to the guesthouse that felt like a second home for me during my 2 weeks stay. I frequently enjoyed my slow mornings in the common lounge where I met a lot of travellers on their journey and was delighted by presence of the dogs, Chilo and Nico. The owner, Suzuki-san, has exquisite taste in music and culture as well, so you find yourself enjoying the books, vinyls, and music playing in the lounge. I would 100% recommend the guesthouse and I’ll be back for sure with my sister! Thank you for everything, Suzuki-san and Cory-san. 🙏🏻
