😀The newly established hostel in May 2017 has independent rooms, tatami room and twin room, as well as capsule rooms (for women) or mix capsule room for backpackers, which can be selected according to different needs of everyone. The facilities can accommodate up to 15-30 people (please mail us if you want rent for all the hostel ). The hostel provides free WiFi, with traditional Japanese courtyard, public lounge, comic corner and family computer game machine for free use. There are also bars and kitchens on the first floor. You can enjoy Arashiyama Holiday with your friends and family while drinking coffee and reading. We also have coin operated washing machines and dryers to use. Tourists who want to stay here for a long time are welcome to enjoy their holiday time. ⭐We also have Chinese and English service , so please don't worry about the language when you travel to Japan.
😀The words『一期一会』『ichigoichie』 ,is derived from tea ceremony. It means once-in-a-lifetime chance. At that time, my wife and I came to Japan as international students. We are looking forward to an unknown world, but the reason for the language barrier is more uneasy about the future. During our stay in Japan, we got a lot of help from local people. Now in retrospect, many people have only met once, and don't even know their names. 7.7 billion people live on the sameearth. There are all kinds of languages, races, nationalities, religions and so on, but everyone's hearts are the same. Thank you for life, thank you for the people you've met so far. Including the feeling of gratitude, we will cherish every encounter through Mulan Hostel, welcome to Mulan Hostel Owner Gao & Wang
