Rakuten STAY URBAN Shijo Teramachi

An accommodation tax is required in Kyoto from Oct 2018. Guests (Both adults and children) are required to pay JPY 200 per guest per night if the room rate per night is under JPY20,000, JPY 500 per guest per night if the room rate per night is between JPY 20,000 and JPY 49,999, and JPY 1,000 per guest per night if the room rate per night is JPY 50,000 or greater. This surcharge is not included in the total rate for some rooms and shall be paid at the hotel.
