Property info

Welcome to Hana Hostel. “Hana” means “Flower” in Japanese. We try to be a fresh and cheery hostel like a lotus flower floating in the pond. Kyoto Hana Hostel opened in April, 2010. The building used to be a local “Ryokan”. We remodeled this into an advanced international hostel. As we are very close from the station and the guest rooms are well-equipped, we will be an good option to stay for not only backpackers but also for ordinary tourists with suits cases. ***We are afraid that our hostel is not designed to accommodate big groups, so we might ask you to adjust / cancel resrvations if you are a big group larger than 7 in total, and we cannot accommodate a group of larger than 4 people in the dormitory room. Thank you for your understanding!***

Neighborhood info

We’re located five minutes from Kyoto station (433m, 1/4ml.). This location is ideally convenient but is quiet because we’re set one street off the main street. Everything you need, such as convenience stores, grocery stores, banks, foreign exchange, the post office, bars, restaurants and karaoke places are nearby.
