Good to know

  • It’s best to visit in the morning to avoid crowds.
  • There is no restroom inside the building. Please use the restroom outside before coming to our shop.
  • We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes.
  • Please arrive early: it takes about 15–20 minutes to walk from the park entrance to our shop, so allow extra time to avoid being late for your reservation.
  • ★Seasonal Note: From June 1 to September 30, we offer yukata (a lightweight summer kimono) instead of regular kimono, so you can enjoy the garden comfortably during the warmer months.

Review for: Casual Kimono Experience with Dressing in Shinjuku Gyoen

I had an amazing experience! They have a wide range of kimono costumes with beautiful colors and designs. The staff were super helpful and friendly, offering great suggestions and taking care of all our needs. It was a big plus for me that the rental shop is located within Shinjuku Garden, so I didn't have to go elsewhere to rent and return the kimono. The shop itself was lovely, with a nice scent and soothing music 😊

We had such an amazing experience renting kimonos here! My daughter and I had the best time, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Tokyo. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and kind from the moment we arrived. They took such great care in helping us choose our kimonos, dressing us beautifully, and creating gorgeous hairstyles that perfectly completed the look. Their attention to detail and professionalism made us feel so special. Afterward, we took our own photos in Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, and it made for such a memorable experience. Everything came together perfectly, and we’re so glad we decided to do it. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan! Thank you to the wonderful team for making this such a special memory for us. We would absolutely come back and recommend you to anyone looking for an authentic and beautiful kimono experience.

Review for: Casual Kimono Experience with Dressing in Shinjuku Gyoen

They were so helpful and patient while I was indecisive choosing from all the beautiful colors and patterns. They also provided heat tech underdressing to accommodate the cold weather. I was happy that the hairstyling included hot tools, and that I was asked if I was okay with the heat being used on my hair. I was under the impression photos were not included, but they were kind enough to take a few pictures of me in their garden and made me feel beautiful. I was also grateful that they spoke very good English. Thank you for a beautiful experience!

The staff were very kind and helpful when explaining the kimono selection process, making the dressing experience stress-free. They prepare an inner lining for you, so there's no need to worry about dirtying the kimono. For hairstyles and hair accessories, there are both free and paid options, and there's no pressure to choose. Plus, Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden has many beautiful spots, perfect for taking photos.

Experience: A truly perfect experience! 😁 The ladies were all very friendly and patient. The prices were reasonable, the kimonos were clean and beautiful, and the shop was clean and refreshing.

The staff were very polite and helpful. You'll need to allow a little time to walk there, as it's near Nihonbashi. There's a good selection of beautiful clothing.
