I've been to Japan twice but never had I experience tatami bed before. Uronza gave me the opportunity to try tatami bed when I visited in early April. The weather that time was still cold and I wore my winter jacket each time I went to the toilets and baths (as the toilets and baths are not connected to the... More

The guesthouse is comfortable and pretty quiet. Rooms are fairly spacious, and the toilets and baths maintained well and very clean. The rules of the house are fairly valid and shd pose no concern. Try reaching the place before 9 pm when u check in as it gets fairly quiet after that and no one to ask for directions .... More

We stay 6nights in this lovely place during Sakura season. The location is great and the place is very very clean. The room is basic but after the whole day walking or cycling in Kyoto, it is a warm and cozy room to sleep. Shower is good and modern. Bathroom is the cleanest I have ever seen in my life.... More

Great house, very clean and very fresh, and a nice helpful owner, speaking good english. The house was quite new and for the price it's excellent. There are some baths quite closeby and you can take the bus (or a longer walk ) to the market and Gion. The only thing i found a bit nonlikeable (but which is clearly... More

Tucked down an unassuming side street in central Kyoto, Uronza is a real hidden gem. As we walked from the subway to the guest house, I was having a hard time imagining a traditional Japanese house in the midst of the city. However, once we turned down the back streets and started walking past dinky little boutiques and eateries, things... More

One of the best places i have ever been! The house is very clean and charming. The garden is beautiful and the rooms were comfortable and with characters. The price was very cheap. Definitively a great bargain and recommended if you want to have a unique experience in Kyoto. It might get a bit cold in winter as the bathroom... More

I have stayed at Uronza twice on separate trips to Kyoto, Japan. The first time was in 2008 (summer), the second in 2010 (spring). Uronza is an absolutely gorgeous guesthouse run by an incredibly helpful and kind host. He was able to give me advice on directions to bath houses, temples and general shopping. And during my visit in Spring... More

I stayed here for close to a week in May and I loved it. It was easy to find, it was spacious, comfortable and great value. My single room was more like a double room, one of the biggest singles I've stayed in, in Japan! The house was literally restored from rubble, you can the care the owner took and... More

Stayed here for 7 nights in April 2010. Paid only 2200 Yen per night per person. This place is awesome as it is an olden wooden house. I have been always feeling uncomfortable for staying in such old wooden structure, but Uronza is an exception. This place is extremely clean (really amazingly clean), the room is spacious, the host is... More
