VASARA Kimono and Yukata Rental in Kyoto

the rental was very worth it, however the place is not really easy to be found, it’s located a bit further from the station. best is to rent in the morning when they start operating as it will take some time to choose the outfit.

Stronoy recommend, the hair style and clothes are fancy, near Kyoto station, my daughters love it very much! I will come back to this shop in next time!

Must do if you’re in Kyoto!! Wonderful experience, the staff was so kind, friendly and helpful. It has a wide selection of kimonos and accessories. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone in the area. experience: Great

It was very friendly and nice, but it was a little disappointing that no one spoke Korean. ㅠㅠIn other places, there was someone who spoke Korean, but if you want to make it look pretty, there is a lot of additional charge.. Haha, like hair and makeup or an upgraded dress.. haha Still, it was special. I was satisfied with the experience. I changed from kimono to yukata and was satisfied without any additional charges.

Subarashii! So happy we booked for our first experience. I asked locals for rental recommendations and a Kyoto resident recommended VISARA so you know they're true professionals. The ladies were experienced, friendly, cute and patient even with a little language barrier, but no problems. It makes you appreciate the culture and skill. Would happily recommend and use them again if ever back in Kyoto! There's signs giving instructions in English, and to remind you no videos/photos inside the shop. One lady was fluent in English and we had a fun conversation. Within walking distance of Shosei-en Garden which is perfect for photos without big crowds (go before 1pm). We walked to and from wearing traditional sandals with no issues. Directions: Beware Google Maps! It may tell you to go around the back of the building: NO! There's no entrance! Round the corner from the back street and you'll see shop entrances and the building entrance, there's signage it's on the 6th Floor.

No frills unless you pay more, but still an amazing experience even as Quick & Simple Kimono (and Hairstyle). It takes time to choose your kimono but the ladies are very cute, patient and helpful! Even though most weren't fluent in English we were able to easily communicate. Very professional. There's no doubt these ladies know their stuff! So happy we booked with them for our first experience. A Kyoto resident recommended them so you know they're true professionals. It makes you appreciate the culture and the art of putting on layered clothing. There's signs giving instructions in English, and to tell you no videos/photos inside the shop. Also keep your cell phone in your obi (belt) not tucked into your robe (no chest/bra storage, ladies!) if you don't get a bag with your rental.

we went pretty late at 3pm, 30mins earlier than our reservation but we received service immediately. since there was only one girl working she had to serve four of us at the same time but she was really fast, nice and productive! they had a great selection of clothes, accessories and hairstyles and we added lots of things which is why we had to pay a little extra (it was so worth it tho!!). we also payed an extra fee to keep the outfits until the next day since it was already pretty late when we finished getting ready but it was really really worth it!! would recommend this place always!

My friend and I had a lot of fun! There were beautiful kimonos to select from and they made sure we looked our absolute best. very simple process to go through and they store our luggage until our return. The accessories provided including the shoes, bag and kanzashi were very beautiful

The service attitude was very good, but I felt a little unclear about the situation. We chose the plan that included one star, but they kept telling us that we would have to pay extra for the one star. Although I asked them to confirm again in the end, there will be no problem, but if you don't pay attention, you may be overcharged.

it was a great experience! I enjoyed getting to wear a Yukata and walking in Kyoto with one on. the staff was super patient and helpful as well when it came to choosing designs and the hairstyle.
