Guest House Links

Tucked just east of central Kyoto, Guest House Links is a budget-friendly ryokan-style guesthouse a short walk from Higashi Honganji and Sanjusangendo. Kyoto Tower and Kiyomizu-dera are also easily reachable, putting temples and galleries on your doorstep.

Small and low-key with only eight guestrooms, Links leans into simple, practical design. Rooms offer air conditioning and some include a kitchenette; bathrooms come with tubs or showers, slippers, complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Expect a communal vibe with a shared kitchen and common lounge spaces.

Free Wi‑Fi across the property, luggage storage and street parking keep logistics easy. Rent a bicycle to cruise nearby streets, catch a show on the common-area TV, or use the shared microwave and refrigerator. Wake up minutes from temple bells and step straight into Kyoto life.

Complimentary wireless internet is available throughout the guesthouse, making it simple to stay connected.

Prepare your own meals in the communal kitchen or stash snacks in the shared fridge and microwave. For local flavor, nearby spots serve Kyoto favorites and hotpot—Wabiya Korekido, Gion Hanamikoji Honten and Negiya Heikichi Pontocho are within easy reach.
