What to expect

RikaWafuku Kimono Rental is a kimono rental store run by Japanese staff.

Our plans include everything you need for kimono rental, so you can just walk in.

We also offer free luggage storage (excluding large items) so you can explore with ease.

From check-in at the reception desk to completion of dressing, it takes approximately 45 to 70 minutes, so you can easily rent even if you don't have much free time.

You can choose all kimonos and yukatas except for Furisode and Homongi. Lace kimonos can also be selected for free.

You can also upgrade to Furisode or Homongi styles for an additional fee on site.

The store is just steps away from tourist attractions, so you can start exploring immediately after renting.

Regardless of when you rent, the fee is the same as long as you return it by the return time of 5:30 PM.
