This is a great option for a family or group that wants to be together and not separated in separate hotel rooms. The location is perfect and the facility is well appointed. The kitchen is small but efficient and the combined washer dryer is especially valuable in the midst of a long trip (which makes for lighter packing)!

This is a very family friendly and cost effective option in a great location in the beautiful city of Kyoto. The only limitation is that our 3 bedroom unit had only one shower/bath but the walk in shower was quite efficient.

The staff were amazing, so helpful with everything from directions, taxis, and restaurant bookings. A special thank you to Chou, who met with every taxi driver to ensure they knew where we needed to go. The location is amazing near the market, lots of shops and great restaurants. The apartment was clean and very comfortable.

We had to change dates for our trip so we didn't get our preferred apartment so we went with a different one which had a large dining table and chairs and two sideboards which made it crowded and no room for a couch or lounge chair. I could see this from the floor plan and photos when I changed my booking, se this is just for information.

These serviced apartments are in a prime location for a stay in Kyoto. Nishiki Market is just a few minutes walk from the apartment, as well as tons of restaurants, bars, more shopping, Gion, temples/shrines, subway stations, and more. A Lawson is across the street, a 7-Eleven is a to the right about 2 mins, and I'm sure there's probably a Family Mart nearby as well. We took an Uber premium van because we were 4 people and 4 suitcases that I didn't feel like lugging on another train and a 10 minute walk, but if you're in the mood for that, it's one stop away from Kyoto Station and then a 10-15 minute walk. We stayed in one of the Superior apartments that had 3 rooms (5 beds), 2 bathrooms --the master bathroom had toilet and shower, there was a laundry room/shower/sink area combo room that was huge, and another toilet room. The washer/dryer combo was super easy to use, which isn't always the case for me in foreign countries. Each room and the kitchen/dining area had an a/c unit. The kitchen is stocked with all the items you need to prepare meals/eat there if you'd like, and there's toiletries provided as well. Everything was clean and there's even daily housekeeping. If we ever make it back to Kyoto, we will stay here again for sure. Oh, and I can't forget to mention the friendly staff! Check-in was easy and it's a very professional setup.

No notes, it was great! I didn't have to communicate with them after check-in, but if I did it would have been efficient, as they have you text them in WhatsApp so the thread is started for any necessary communicate that might arise during the stay.

We are a party of 7 with two young kids (6 & 4yo). I needed help to send our luggages to R&Run and when i informed the staff that the self checked service aparment i booked in Osaka wasn't forthcoming when i approach them for advice, the R&R staff even pinpoint for me two places i can inquire on luggage delivery service when i arrived which was near the Osaka apartment. They even gave me the format of the address i should put on the form. We managed then to send our luggages over and they assisted to monitor when only part of the luggage arrived the next day. The apartment is so clean and our grandkids enjoy the space. We were able to sit around the long table for chats in the evening while having a meal. It has a equipped kitchen and within walking distance to Nishiki Market, Gion with many food places close by. Staff are friendly, professional and helpful with inquiries, we get fresh towels and water daily and room vacumn and made up at mid stay. Definitely a place which we would like to go back to stay - strongly supported by our grandkids.

High quality spacious accommodation in fantastic upmarket area of Kyoto. Location - perfect! Near station, coffee bars, restaurants, opposite North Face shop, 7-11, Lawsons. Much better than pictures (which looked like it was dated)- newly refurbished. Standard of service was excellent - communicated to reception via WhatsApp and staff delivered coffee, fresh towels, water etc very quickly. Fantastic stay and we will return!

2 bedroom apartment - 1 private room and other was open plan to kitchen so very little privacy from our friends. This was not clear as floor plan on website looked like it was enclosed. It needs the sliding doors to create privacy (which bizarrely are on the lounge). We would still come back. We loved it.

Location - very close to restaurants, shops, supermarket & small playground. Easy to walk to most attractions or a short taxi ride away. Nishiki markets, Green Rabbit Bagels, & Weekenders coffee were enjoyed daily and only a few minutes by foot. Accommodation - very spacious and clean. The washing machine & dryer was very good/handy. Staff - very helpful. Took the time to explain location, attractions and facilities. Provided a pram to use during our stay, booked taxi, provided games for kids.

Nothing I didn’t like

Location was great, convenient for Lawsons, lots of cafes and restaurants and also for Nishiki market. It was peaceful at nighttime for a restful sleep. We stayed in a 3 bed apartment which was spacious and comfortable. The convenience of having a huge washer/dryer was great - we did laundry almost every night and had a suitcase of clean clothes for our next destination. The staff were amazing - really helpful with our luggage forwarding and helping us to locate some medication as well. High recommend this lovely place - we would definitely stay here again next time we’re in Kyoto!

The minor issue we had (which cannot be changed) was that there was only one shower / bathroom and the apartment had various steps in strange places so you must be careful with elderly or young children.

A family of 6 . Had 3 bedrooms, the master had its own bathroom and shower. Really well maintained and so clean. we loved the apartment and the location. It is 2 blocks from Nishiki market area with tons of restaurants, shopping and food! Lawson mini mart and lots of shops are right across the street. We felt really safe. It was tranquil and comfortable at night. We spent a week here and still didn’t see all the shops and sights around. We walked to Gion and the big shopping district too. An added bonus is that the washer/dryer is in the apartment. The cleaners came every other day which was just the right schedule for us. Our teenagers loved the location, as did the adults. Highly recommend this place for a family.

The only negatives to were that the inner two bedrooms didn’t have windows but it didn’t affect or stay at all, and they only have two keys for the apartment that 6 of us shared, but we worked it out. Kyoto station is a bit further, but we would still prefer staying at this place over Kyoto station unless we had train excursions daily.

We loved everything about R&Run Kyoto! The location was fantastic, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the building was quiet, and the apartment was amazing! I traveled with my husband, son, and brother, and the 3 bedroom apartment was perfect for us. The second bathroom and washer/dryer were such a wonderful bonus! The beds were comfortable, with plenty of pillows. The apartment had a microwave, coffee maker, cooktop, and pots/pans/utensils, as well as a refrigerator. There was an AC unit in each bedroom plus the common area, which was a godsend in the heat and humidity! The building is in central Kyoto, a short taxi ride from Kyoto station, a 5 min walk to the Teramachi shopping center, 7-11, and a local supermarket, and convenient for exploring the city on foot. Because of the weather, we took taxis to destinations further out (Arishiyama, etc...) more than the metro, but the couple of times we used the metro, the stations were 10 min or less from the apartment. Such an amazing stay. We highly recommend it!!

Absolutely nothing!

The location was perfect. Walking distance to the Nishiki Market and River as well as bus lines and subway. The unit far exceeded my expectations. It was beautiful, modern, spacious, even had a view (6th floor unit). The combination washer/dryer was really nice to have in the room. The unit was comfortable with a living space and table. As we entered the unit, my 10 year old twin boys immediately let out the ahhs and ooohs... Perfect for a family stay.

There wasn't anything I didn't like about staying a R&Run.
