Kimono rental

This experience was amazing, the dressing and hair styling was really good and they made us feel very special. We loved every minute but would like to feedback on a couple of things. 1. They did not recognise the Viator ticket and it took 10 minutes to prove that we had paid. 2. They wanted us to spend lots more on silk Kimonos and accessories but we felt what we had ordered was sufficient, the upgrade was very expensive and there was a suggestion that the kimonos we had were 2nd rate. However, the overall experience was absolutely wonderful and the staff were fantastic so highly recommend.

Nice shop with lots of choices, very understanding staff

Unfortunately the order was not in the store registers but they still welcomed us and provided the services for which I had paid at no extra charge. The choice of kimonos or yukatas for women is many and a little less for men but this is often the case. Once we chose our yukatas, the staff explained the procedure and accessories (fees apply) that could be added. They dress us and style the women and here we go to enjoy the neighborhood of Gion in yukata (the shop is close enough to pretty photo spots if you are not afraid to walk a little). A very pleasant staff who masters a little English for some.
