About

Uu Inn Kyoto

Uu Inn Kyoto is a small, 3-star guesthouse set in the Fushimi district, about a 5-minute walk from Gonjoji Temple. With just seven rooms, it offers a more personal, unhurried atmosphere than the city's larger hotels. Each room looks out over the city, and the soundproofing and no-smoking policy help keep things calm.

The property keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, an electric kettle, and free toiletries in every room. A shared laundry station is handy for longer trips, and the 24-hour security and key card access add peace of mind. There's no on-site restaurant, but the neighborhood is dotted with convenience stores and cafés for breakfast and snacks.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Prime sightseeing base — Within a 5-minute walk of Gonjoji Temple, and guests mention Fushimi Inari and Tofuku-ji are easily reachable. The property sits next to a train station, making day trips simple.
  • Quiet and well-equipped rooms — Soundproofing, air conditioning, heating, and an electric kettle are standard. Several reviews highlight the cleanliness and the in-room jacuzzi as a standout feature.
  • On-site laundry — A dedicated washing and drying facility lets guests refresh clothes on longer stays, a detail multiple reviewers praised.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Very small scale — With only seven rooms, the property may lack the services and dining options of a larger hotel. No on-site restaurant means planning meals elsewhere.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight won't be accommodated. Check-out is a firm 10:00.
  • No pets and no parking listed — Pets are not allowed, and no parking is specified, which may complicate stays for those arriving by car.
