We love the place, it's quite central, we got off the bus and walked a few steps, we were already in the boutique, the people are very friendly and they have a HUGE VARIETY to choose from, from bags, hair accessories, kimonos and kimono accessories.

Really enjoyed the session. The changing was efficient and professional. Even with basic package for ladies, there are good designs and basic hairstyling. The costumes can be worn till 5pm each day. Luggage storage provided and you can choose a small bag to match with the costume. Good value and fun walking around in costumes.

It is highly recommended to try wearing a kimono, but you really have to be mentally prepared to spend money~ Let’s not talk about the original purchase cost + makeup~ because upgrading the kimono costs money, and upgrading the hairstyle also costs money!!!! Even someone next door said... I am not satisfied with the matching. I hope I can change the belt but it also costs money~ If you are from Taiwan, they are really friendly, because many people in the store can speak Chinese, so you don’t have to worry about language communication problems. The makeup artist is also very attentive and knows how to match the selection. Don’t worry about matching the kimono, money can solve all problems

The shop is just walking distance from Gion-shijo Station, easy to find. The shop is a bit small so it easily gets crowded. The staff were friendly and can communicate well in English, Chinese, and Japanese language. The whole process takes about an hour, from dressing up to styling hair. They also give warm inside clothes and pants during winter time and also provide gloves and scarf. You can leave your belongings there, just make sure to bring all the necessary stuff that you need. The kimono set also comes with a bag so you can put some of your belongings like your phone and passport inside. Highly recommended!

I arrived 30 minutes late for my reservation, but they greeted me kindly. It took me a while to choose my clothes, but they didn't rush me, and when I was deciding on a kimono and obi, they recommended it to me. I wanted to look prettier and more gorgeous, so I got my hair done for a fee, but they didn't pressure me or anything.😊 They asked me to choose a flower to put in my hair, so I chose one, and they put another one in to match the one I chose, and I could return it by 6pm.ㅎㅎ When I wore the kimono, it was tight enough, so I didn't have any trouble eating, and it wasn't inconvenient to go to the bathroom. Since it was a couple set, there were restrictions on choosing kimonos, but I still liked several, so it was hard to choose.ㅎㅎ The bag was also free to rent, so I could choose whatever I wanted👍 It rained on the day I rented it, but they lent me an umbrella so I could walk around comfortably. Thanks to them, I was able to have a good experience and good memories.🥰

The staff were incredibly friendly and detail-oriented. They did an amazing job on my girlfriend’s hair and made us feel so welcome, even though we couldn’t speak Japanese at all. I highly recommend this place, especially since it’s conveniently located near a temple, bus stops, and a train station.

One of the highlight of my travel here in Kyoto is to wear a traditional clothing of Japan. I found kimonos really nice but when I learned the Hakama, I booked it. They gave me the greatest experience I ever had down from they were dressing me to me walking it down the streets of Japan. I kept telling myself, “Is this how a Hakama should be worn?, It is like I am dreaming!” I am so happy, I am fulfilled, and I am honored to have a Hakama wear. I thank rental first for this experience, I enjiyed their gentle service and beautiful smiles while assisting me. I would definitely book again, this time it will be Premium. 心より感謝申し上げます

I had an amazing experience at this kimono shop! The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure to guide me through every step of the process. They offered excellent advice on choosing colors and patterns that would suit me best, making the entire experience feel tailored and special. Their professionalism in hair styling was also impressive – they crafted a beautiful style that complemented my kimono perfectly.🥰 Been complemented by so many tourists passed by! The shop offers a wide selection of kimonos and hair accessories, so there's something for everyone. Additionally, they have staff members who speak Chinese, which made communication so much easier. I highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for a memorable kimono experience!🥳🤩
