Kimono Rental Waraku
– Kyoto Ekimae Store
Located just a one-minute walk from Kyoto Station—the gateway to the city—Kimono Rental Waraku Kyoto Station Store offers the perfect location for sightseeing in Kyoto. Whether you're planning a day of kimono strolling around the city, renting a hakama for your graduation, or a furisode for your Coming of Age ceremony, our station-front shop is the ideal choice.
At Waraku, we have an extensive lineup of over 600 kimono styles, including trendy retro antique and lace kimono, all available at the same flat rate. We frequently stock the latest popular kimono seen on social media, with a wide variety of designs ranging from classic to cute and fashionable. Most of our rental plans include professional hairstyling and free luggage storage. Same-day reservations are welcome, so you can enjoy a fun and stylish kimono experience in Kyoto without any hassle.
From our store, it's easy to travel to major sightseeing spots like Kiyomizu-dera, Gion, and Arashiyama by train. Nearby attractions like Higashi Hongan-ji Temple and Kyoto Tower are also within walking distance.
We also offer a range of discount plans, including the Couple Plan, Student Plan, and Group Plan for groups of three or more. Whether you're on a romantic date, sightseeing with friends, or traveling as a student, we have the right plan to suit your needs. For school trips with tight schedules, we provide quick and courteous service through our Kyoto School Trip Plan, making kimono rental affordable and easy. We're experienced in hosting large student groups, so even first-time renters can feel at ease.
And don’t worry about outfit repetition—our vast collection ensures everyone finds something unique. We also provide a full range of stylish accessories, from trendy to timeless, to match your kimono. Whether you're going for a fashionable look or a charming traditional style, we've got you covered.
Waraku is right in front of JR Kyoto Station and surrounded by many hotels, making us a popular choice for visitors from both inside and outside of Kyoto Prefecture. Our yukata rental options are just as abundant and reasonably priced as our kimono collection. Even brand-name yukata, often considered a premium add-on at other shops, are included in our flat pricing. The style you choose doesn’t affect the cost.
Whether you're visiting Kyoto with friends or on a couple's getaway, let Waraku help you create lasting memories with one of our great-value kimono or yukata rental plans

Online Booking: Available 24/7, year-round. Same-day reservations can be made up to 1 hour before your preferred time.
Phone Booking: Available during business hours (9:30 AM – 5:30 PM). Instant bookings are also accepted.
If the online booking system shows “△” (limited availability) but doesn’t let you proceed, it may be because only 1 slot is left or the number of guests you entered exceeds available slots. In such cases, please call us, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

Please arrive at the store at your reserved time.
At the front desk, just tell us your name and reservation time.
We kindly ask that you pay in advance.

Tips for Same-Day Reservations
Point1:
Same Price as Advance Bookings – No Extra Fees!
At many kimono rental shops, same-day bookings cost more than advance reservations. But not at Waraku Kyoto Station Front Store—our pricing stays the same no matter when you book!
No hidden fees, no surprises. Every plan includes everything you need to go out in a full kimono look:
・Kimono
・Footwear
・For women: hairstyling and hair accessories
You can arrive empty-handed, and we’ll take care of the rest. Plus, we provide the same attentive dressing and hairstyling service as we do for guests who book in advance, so you can relax and enjoy your visit.
Point2:
Instant Reservations OK – Walk-ins Welcome (If Space Allows)
Online reservations are accepted up to 1 hour in advance, and phone reservations up to 1 minute before your visit!
So if you suddenly decide, “I want to wear a kimono today!” or spot our sign while passing by—we’ve got you covered.
Depending on our availability, we may also be able to accommodate walk-in customers. If you’re wondering whether we can take you right away, just give us a quick call or drop in and ask. We’ll do our best to help!
Point3:
Perfect Location – Just 1 Minute from Kyoto Station
Waraku is just a 1-minute walk from both JR Kyoto Station and the Kyoto Subway Station. The bus terminal is right in front, too, so your travel time is minimal and your kimono experience starts almost instantly!
Because kimono can be a bit restrictive when walking long distances, the closer the better—and our location is one of the best in Kyoto. From here, you can easily access all of the city’s most famous sightseeing spots.
If you’re booking on the same day, choosing a store this close to the station means less stress, more sightseeing, and more fun!
Notes on Same-Day Reservations ー Kimono Rental Wasaku Kyoto Ekimae Store
・During busy seasons such as fireworks festivals and local events, we may only be able to accommodate guests with advance reservations. We kindly ask for your understanding. If you plan to visit on a special event day, we strongly recommend booking in advance to secure your spot.
・All kimono must be returned by 5:30 PM on the same day. For same-day bookings, your rental time may start later in the day, which could shorten your kimono experience. To enjoy more time, we recommend booking earlier in the day whenever possible.
・We only offer adult-size kimono.
Unfortunately, we do not have kimono for children.
However, we can accommodate elementary school students if their height falls within the following ranges:
Women’s kimono: 145cm – 175cm (4’9″ to 5’9″)
Men’s kimono: 155cm – 190cm (5’1″ to 6’3″)
