the hotel is not provide the stairs for us, so we have to walk to the 4th floor and it has the bathroom only on the 1st floor. TwT However, the staff can speak English very well and give us many good advises about walking around in Takayama. The hostel is very close to JR station and also close to... More

We had an amazing time in Kyoto and J-Hoppers was my home away from home for the 4 nights we spent there. It was very comfortable and clean in the 8 bed mixed dorms. Everyone was very kind and knowledgeable about the area. It was right across the street from a nice family restaurant and was one block over from... More

We stayed for 4 nights in a 8 bed dorm (¥2500 a bed a night). The first night other sleepers were opening our curtains. Because every bed has curtains for privacy. Then the next morning one member of the staff opened the curtain... Really weird night. But that was the only downside. The common space is big and you have... More

J-hoppers definitely living it up to its reviews! Stayed for 6 nights in female dorm. Really big bunk beds with medium-sized lockers in the room itself. Cleanliness was top-notch and the distance for bus stop and kyoto station fairly nearby. Staff were helpful in pointing us in the right directions. Overall, very good stay!

There's privacy curtains, bed light, a... More

I stayed just one night but the place was wonderful. Great services, soap and shampoo included, wifi and free internet, towels if needed... all this for the right price. Very clean and spacious. Personnel was lovely and polite. Only drawback is that there is no elevator but is a 5/storey building. If you have no issues with carrying around heavy... More

The hostel is located in a decent location as it is close to Kyoto station (10min walk) and very near to a seven-eleven convenience store. No elevator, so it can be a little difficult with large suitcases. The dorms were decent as they were provided sufficient space. However, the layout of sink and wash area on the 3rd floor is... More

Friends and I stayed here for two nights. The staff were friendly and the hostel was in quite a good location. We were able to hire bikes for the day from the hostel which was good, we were able to do a lot of sightseeing. There is no lift in the hostel- the staff did take our bags up to... More
