I have been in Kyoto 5 times and stayed in the Millennials for 3 times. As long as I travel alone, the Millennials is always my first choice. The convenience and the location is awesome, staff are always smiling and helpful. For all of these the price is really good! I really love this place and would absolutely recommend it.

Best capsule hostel I stayed in so far! Prime location in central Kyoto so everything around Gion, Kawamarachi, etc was walkable. The beds were amazing and everything was super clean. The 8th floor during free beer hour is great for meeting people. Wish this hostel would exist in more cities!

Perfect for solo travellers. The capsules are very spacious and cosy. Very comfortable bed. The toilet & showers are clean & equip with everything you need. There’s a nice common area space so the free tea & coffee.

I stayed here as a solo female traveler for my spring break! It was very clean and quiet. The facilities, like shower, bathroom and shared kitchen, were easily accessible and well maintained. I was a bit worried about my things - there’s only a very small locker under your bed, and the rest is a sliding drawer for your suitcase - since the area underneath cannot be locked so your suitcase isn’t ‘secure.’ However, I had no issues with this during my stay! I just pulled down the curtain to my room completely every time I left and I never found my things tampered with or stolen! Every morning starting at 7:30, they serve breakfast for ¥800 which is quite yummy - all you can eat bread and soup! The staff were kind and helpful as well. The location is great for shopping as well.

location is ideal, minutes to Gion as well as Harajuku, the main commercial center. Walking distance to many temples (inc. Kiyomizu-dera) and public transportation at the door for further temples and Arashiyama. Free-beer concept is smart marketing. Free amenities inc: bath towels, toothbrush/paste, razor & cream, ear plugs, comb, q-tips, tissues and slippers; friendly staff provide amenity top-ups. Bathtub located at the last shower cubicle. Shower gel is nice. I’d skip breakfast. pj’s are rented. Millennials is an established joint, so it definitely needs a spruce-up or revamp (the capsules, finicky projector ports, sofas, entrance). Nevertheless, the millennials is the best place to stay in Kyoto for its central location and super-chilled out vibe! ~i stayed a week and I’d definitely stay here again :)

Location is great. You go lots of places by walking. Common room is so good, different types of seatings and corners, to sit with people or alone. Its city view is also impressive. In japan you have water everywhere but tea and coffee available as free. Capsule was good, under there is an area to put your luggage. Bed turns to a sofa, too. I wish there was little more space next to the bed. They give you towels, toothbrush, etc. in a bag and you can get them again if you need. I was satisfied with the staff while check-in and during my stay. In the evening free beer was a good idea.

My capsule was beside bathroom. People use the washing machine and hairdryer after midnight was annoying. After the first night I have considered to change it and talked to the staff. They offered me to change but then I didn't want to deal with repacking and move.

The beds were soooo comfortable. I had the best night’s sleep here of all places I stayed. The capsules are luxurious. Glamsule not a capsule.

Nothing.

Genuinely everything -- facilities were great, staff were great, amenities were great. The beds had special reclining feature to go into sofa mode, and some pods had projectors. What??? Also, though it was pod style, it was really comfortable and didn't feel cramped or claustrophobic. I loved the design (you keep your luggage under the bed in a slide out which is super convenient). I ended up extending because I loved it so much. Also, great location!

Nothing really, I just kept forgetting that the reception was on the top floor. If anything, the elevators took a while, but it's not a deal breaker.

Staff was really great in both locations: Tokyo and Kyoto. In Tokyo the staff helped me find a doctor and in both locations staff helped with the taxi. Really nice and very good English. About the hotel: the rooms are ventilated which is great for a good night sleep. Bathrooms are just spotless. Extremely clean. Towels can be changed after each use. I like that the restrooms are separated from the showers and there are plenty of sinks. Shower rooms are perfect size. You even have a designed area where to leave your clothes. Shower gel, shampoo, conditioners are premium quality. Location: excellent! Walkable distance to Gion and to the subway station. Loads of restaurants and shops around the area. Everything was top! If I ever go back to Japan I know where I'm staying.

Nothing to complain about.

I had an incredibly beautiful stay. Everything was clean and orderly. Everything is labeled very clearly, making it easy to follow the customs. The large common area was very pleasant, and there were always free spots available. The rooms/beds are very comfortable, and all my belongings fit both under the bed (in a drawer) and on the shelf. It was easy to sleep well at night. However, with so many people, there were occasional noises at night (rustling, coughing, rearranging bags, etc.). Therefore, I recommend taking earplugs, but overall, I was very satisfied.
