ABOUT
In Kyoto, visitors can make use of a service that carries their luggage from the station to their accommodation,
while there are also many locations where they can store their luggage.
Discover and use the service ideally suited to your needs!
Bringing suitcases or other large luggage onto buses or trains can cause crowding and even prevent local residents from using their own transportation systems. Please refrain from bringing large pieces of luggage onto city buses.
Go "hands-free sightseeing" whenever possible so everyone can get around comfortably!
-
Carry service
For visitors to Kyoto, this service carries luggage between Kyoto Station and their accommodation, as well as between their different accommodation facilities. If visitors complete the required procedures during open hours, they can drop off and pick up their luggage on the same day.
-
Luggage storage
This service allows visitors to store luggage that doesn’t fit in lockers in various locations. There are also counters outside the Kyoto Station area where you can leave your luggage.
-
Coin Locker
A convenient option that can be used whenever the station is open. Some services allow you to check availability and pay with transportation IC cards.
