KABIN Machi

Love the location. Shower and room were spacious. Laundry room was convenient. Staff was friendly. Will definitely try and book here again

I couldn’t figure out how to view apps on the tv like Netflix

Location was awesome.

The room was veryyyyy small. Would not stay here again only because of how tiny the room is. I should have double checked the square footage! Our smallest room in Japan.

Quiet, clean and comfortable. Ase at the front desk was very helpful in giving directions and recommendations. Kabin Machi is in a great location, close to trains, walk to temples, Nishiki Market, Gion district, shopping.

There was nothing I did not like. Note the desk is not staffed 24 hours. We did not have any issues and no problems navigating the property.

Great location, Spacious, comfortable, clean.

The location was good for my purpose. The hotel is within walking distance of metro lines and bus stops for going to attractions in the Gion district. The room was big, comfortable and clean. They had a large table with chairs in the first floor and offered free tea and water. It's also close to restaurants and convenience stores.

The only thing I didn't like is that the reception is not manned 24 hours a day but it's understandable since the price of the room is not expensive.

Great hotel, in an ideal location for exploring Kyoto. Comfortable, clean rooms and we were able to store our luggage easily at the sister hotel just down the road.

Private. Comfortable room. Great location

The room was nice and clean. Great location to explore Kyoto.

This place is very centrally located to downtown Kyoto many things were in walking distance. I loved the room codes so you don’t have to worry about carrying a keycard with you. The staff was super friendly and the rooms were modern and clean. Would definitely stay here again!

Great value and great location. I liked the minimalist design aspects and minimalist approach to accomodations. Kabin had what I needed. The room was simple but was designed so well that it felt huge compared to our last hotel. Though the staff were great, the accommodations, logistics of keyless entry and the app were all so well thought out that you really don't need the staff. But when you do, they're exceedingly friendly and helpful. Lastly, the proximity of the other KABIN properties was really useful.

Not much to dislike. Really. One request: Though I appreciated the microwave, a toaster would be great. And, it wasn't until checkin that I understood there were multiple properties, with different amenities (Gym, coffee bar, laundry), that one could take advantage of. Certainly a pleasant surprise but when booking through Booking,com, I didn't really understand that. But really, that's it. This place is great.

It was a decent size - comfortable with enough space to layout 2 cabin sized luggage and still have enough space to move around in. The location was excellent - a 5 to 15 min walk to most places you would want to visit in Kyoto. We didn’t take public transport once while we were there!

Nothing much to dislike about it. Just that there aren’t enough hooks or racks to dry towels and clothes. It would have been good if there were an air dryer of sorts in the bathroom (which some other boutique hotels I’ve stayed in in Japan have).

The staff is really nice and they speak perfect english. Everything seems new and clean. Location is the best possible, between the best restaurants and the old city.

The laundry and the room to storage luggage are not at tho hotel, but in a other Kabin hotel on the same street, so mind that if you decide to do laundry or store luggage in Kyoto.

Great location, functional place, helpful and friendly staff. Environmentally conscious.

We had the bathroom ventilator constantly on with no way to turn it off, making it hard to sleep due to the noise. However, the staff helped find a solution.

In general the room is very nice, fairly new. The bed is comfortable and location is also pretty convenient.

The only downside of the rooms is that the windows can not be open, therefore the humidity in the room is quite bad.

Cleanliness, Modern, Automated

Room was very small, no space to open luggage.There was a lot of humidity in the room. Rainfall got inside the windows and stained the wall.Nothing is included with the room.

Nice little hotel, great location. Room very small and tv hung in hazardous place!

Conveniently located new property which was extremely clean and modern. It was great having a good food market across the street.

The room quickly became stuffy as we weren’t able to open the window. The reverse cycle air conditioning worked well though.

Great staff, super helpful. The hotel is small and tucked away on a quiet street but do not let that fool you - the rooms provide ample space and everything is really well kept. The bed was comfortable, the shower was spacious and luxurious. We were able to get luggage shipped to and from their sister hotel around the corner, KABIN Taka. We loved the location as we were a quick 5 minute walk to Nishiki Market and the high street. The closest station is also not too far away.

Great location within walking distance from all main sights, super friendly personnel that helped ship our luggage to the next place and even stored the bags for two extra days

The smell in the room was weird

Express check in and out was very convenient - could do so prior to arrival to retrieve code for room.We stayed for 7 nights and the room was a good size for that long a stay.Staff always greeted us when we returned, and felt welcoming.After big days of exploring the city, it was great to come back to a quiet and homey room.
