Compare Kyoto kimono shops

Choose where you are standing. Nearby shops sort by straight-line distance, and a tap opens that shop in Google Maps. Pick one language. Hair and furisode can be added on top, and the map, table, and cards change together. After you pick a sight, the shops below reorder by straight-line distance and name the nearest door. Ten shops are listed. Figures are from each shop’s own site on 2026-10-21. Campaigns, tax-excluded prices, and Japan-resident discounts are marked. There is no Google score and no quality ranking.

Simple hair is listed at ¥0, plus one hair ornament.
Web booking pre-checks a ¥1,100 hair option. Uncheck it if you do not want it.
Return after 15:00 adds ¥1,100.

What that price says: The Chinese plan page includes the kimono, obi, sandals, bag, tabi, other accessories, and dressing. Simple hair is listed at ¥0 and described as included, with one free hair ornament. The same page says web booking pre-selects a ¥1,100 hair option, which can be unchecked.
Formal price: The page says homongi and furisode are available. This plan page does not give a furisode price, so it is left out of the furisode comparison.
Language: There are Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, and Japanese sites. No Korean site or Korean service was on the pages checked, so Korean is not marked. A website is not the same as confirmed staff in that language.
Note: Shops are in Kyoto, Tokyo, Osaka, Saitama, and Kanazawa. Returning after 15:00 adds ¥1,100.

Hair styling is a separate plan at 8,800 yen list (6,600 campaign, same end date). Hair alone starts at 1,650 yen.
Formal price: Premium plan (furisode / homongi / montsuki hakama) from 11,000 yen. That page does not say tax included. The 16,500 yen figure is indoor photography, and 19,800 yen is location photography, not the kimono rental.
Language: The plan page intro says English-speaking staff. The shop pages are a Japanese site, and they are not separately written as Japanese-speaking staff. The header links to Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean sites. The booking form has Chinese as a language choice. Korean is an interpreter at an extra 3,000 yen per person, not free Korean-speaking staff.
Note: The campaign note also says the price applies to bookings from 9:00 to 16:00. A women’s casual plan is listed at 3,080 yen, free size only, about 30 pieces, and it carries the same expired campaign period.
