An unforgettable Kyoto accommodation in a quiet alley. This ryokan is much more satisfying than it looks in the photos. In fact, it is not a ryokan and does not have kaiseki or yukata service, but it is still a very pretty and beautiful accommodation. It is close to Sanjo Station and the Kamo River, and has good accessibility to tourist attractions. It is a private house on the second floor and has many cute and fun spaces. It feels like a lot of attention was paid to the interior, starting with lighting. It looks like an old house, but it feels very well maintained and clean. Heaters, stoves, washing machines, microwaves, and amenities are all provided so you can use them comfortably. The small courtyard-like garden was also beautiful. An accommodation that makes you regret leaving. I definitely recommend it.

A delightful experience, a mix of architectural history with down to earth luxury accommodation. Mind you its more of a hard edge functional luxury, lots of wood and tatami mats. I love the kitchen "cabinet" and its a super nice touch to have the shower with the dual pour over function.The futons are extremely comfortable as are the beds and its well designed so that you can take a relaxing bath and look out onto the garden. Or relax in the dining room and do the same. Check in is a breeze and check out is simply leaving the machiya. This is a huge recommendation, if you've never stayed in these apartments before reserve one.

It had good access to buses and trains, making it a convenient base for sightseeing.Pontocho is also within walking distance, so you won't have to worry about eating, and it seems like a good place to relax.While retaining the atmosphere of a townhouse, the plumbing was stylish and easy to use, and the air conditioning was perfect, making it a very comfortable place to stay.The check-in counter was near Kyoto Station, and I was able to leave my luggage for the night (delivered to the townhouse where I was staying) and then go sightseeing, so I was able to make effective use of my time.The staff at the counter were very friendly and I was able to start my trip to Kyoto in a good mood.thank you very much.
