New Student Dormitory in Kyoto Set to Open

In April 2026, Kyoritsu Maintenance will unveil its latest student dormitory, "Dormy Kinugasa Tojiin," located in Kyoto City. This innovative living space is the result of a full renovation of an existing building, transforming it into a modern facility tailored to the needs of today's students. With over 500 locations across Japan under the name "Dormy," Kyoritsu Maintenance aims to combine the independence of apartment living with the vibrant community experience of dormitory life.

Prime Location

Situated just an 8-minute walk from Ritsumeikan University's Kinugasa Campus and a mere minute away from the Randen Kitano Line's "Tojiin-Ritsumeikan University Kinugasa Campus" station, the Dormy Kinugasa Tojiin is ideally located for students. This strategic placement not only provides ease of access to classes and campus activities but also encourages a productive student lifestyle. Its proximity to major transportation links further enhances connectivity, making it easy for residents to explore Kyoto's cultural wonders.

Features of the Dormitory

1. Individual Rooms with Modern Amenities

Each of the 179 fully renovated rooms is equipped with essential appliances, including a washing machine, 2-door refrigerator, and microwave, allowing students to live independently from day one. This focus on privacy contrasts traditional dormitory setups which may involve shared facilities, reducing wait times and stress for students.

2. Shared Spaces for Networking

Promoting interaction among residents, the dormitory boasts numerous communal areas designed for socialization and collaboration. Whether it’s the theater room for movie nights, the meeting rooms for study groups, or open dining and kitchen spaces for casual meals, these shared facilities serve as hubs for building friendships across diverse academic departments.

3. Comprehensive Support System

Ensuring student well-being, the facility offers professionally prepared meals crafted by a nutritionist, promoting a balanced diet through homemade dishes served twice daily. Additionally, a resident couple serves as dorm managers, living on-site to provide daily support and assistance in case of emergencies, guaranteeing a safe and caring living environment.

Amenities and Costs

The dormitory features:

• - Size: 5-story building with a variety of room sizes from 14.07 to 19.5 square meters.
• - Facilities: Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, study desks, and well-equipped common areas such as lounges and workspaces.
• - Security: Robust security measures are in place, ensuring peace of mind for both residents and their families.

Monthly living costs range from 64,900 yen (plus meal options) to 84,260 yen (including meals), making it an appealing choice for students looking for a combination of comfort and affordability.

Conclusion: A New Experience for Students

The opening of Dormy Kinugasa Tojiin represents a forward-thinking approach to student accommodation, blending independence with community-oriented living. As Kyoritsu Maintenance continues to prioritize quality and comfort in student housing, this new dormitory is set to become a cornerstone of student life in Kyoto.
