Quiet Japanese Home Experience
Great traditional Japanese home with modern conveniences. Very quiet and not far to many sights.
Excellent property right in the middle of Kyoto. If you want to be immersed in the neighborhood in a traditional yet historic property this is the one. We traveled from USA with 7 people (3 adults and 4 kids aged 9-13). 15 minute walk to Nijo castle and 5 minute walk to Nijo station (which is 10 minutes to Kyoto station or Arashiyama). There is also a massively long pedestrian commercial street a stone's throw away that offers countless local dining and shopping experiences. We chose to have breakfast included which was also neat as it is delivered but traditional. The bath is something to experience too so take the time to learn how to operate and fill it. This was a great home base for our 5 days in Kyoto thanks!
Such an unforgettable Japanese experience in the heart of Kyoto! The traditional house is well kept and equipped, offers us a very comfortable place for living. The place is centrally located, close to JR and metro stations. Close by there are plenty of shopping and dining opportunities, all very local. Communication with the ower was easy and responsive. Highly recommended and I will stay here again next time!
