Do I need to print my ticket or can I show it on my phone?

A mobile ticket is fine — just show your booking confirmation on your phone at the shop counter.

Is the hairstyling available for everyone?

Hairstyling is available for female guests only. Male guests can still rent a kimono or yukata but the hairstyling add-on does not apply.

How long does the rental last?

The exact rental period is confirmed at the shop. Typically, kimono rentals in Kyoto run for the full day, but check your booking confirmation for the specific return time.

What sizes are available?

Yumeyakata stocks a wide range of sizes to accommodate most guests. If you have specific size requirements, it's worth contacting the shop in advance.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Cancellation terms are shown at checkout before you confirm your booking. Review the policy for your chosen ticket type at the time of purchase.

Do I need to know how to put on a kimono myself?

No — the shop's staff will dress you and make sure everything is properly fitted before you head out.

Know before you go

Hairstyling is available for female guests only; this option cannot be applied to male bookings.

Wear or bring plain, close-fitting undergarments — visible logos or patterns may show beneath the kimono.

Flat or low-heeled footwear is strongly recommended if you plan to walk for several hours.

Return the costume to the shop by the agreed time to avoid additional charges.

The shop is located in Shimogyo-ku — allow enough travel time from your accommodation.
